Giro d'Italia

Literally a bloody horrible finish to yesterday’s stage . Not good….

Shame to be losing so many riders. Looking pretty good for Cadel.

Cadel’s going to struggle not to lose a lot of time to Quintana once they get into the mountains I reckon.

I think Quintana is a better climber overall and will probably beat Evans on a few stages, but Cadel has looked pretty strong and I think he really wants it this year. I think he’ll probably win it due partly to the lead he already has and the fact that he’s done it all before. Knows how to play the game.

Purito has retired I think? Broken ribs?

Blimey it’s looking like a right war of attrition…

Time trial today, could be more of the same with a tricky descent on wet roads on TT bikes.

Bingo! Sean Kelly mentions Evans’s great bike handling skills being a former mountain biker 🙂

Well he was off-road at the time!
