Same with Gerrans. When you have sprinters in the group behind, you have no reason to work. Especially with Canc

Gerrans! What a race!!! Proving that MSR is not the sprinters classic

This trio better stick.

Now Nibbles and Gerrans! Loving this

Hoogerland! What a man!

on towards the Poggio!

I thought someone said Hoogerland was no longer doing crazy attacks :rolleyes:

Gilbert is looking pretty good right now. I'm at least expecting an attack from him today

Cav going backwards immediately...so much for good form

But the idea isn't to just shed all the sprinters off the back, the poggio is too easy for that. Instead, attacking and going hard up the poggio sends the sprinters towards the back of the group and gets you a good position for the descent, which is really the key to MSR. As others have said...

Sagan definitely paying Nibali back there

Purito!! Decent gap

Poels having a go.

Freire is looking really good. Still towards the front

C'mon Aqua y Sapone, don't chase down Betancur. Oh well.
