2012 Giro d'Italia, May 23rd, stage 17: Falzes → Cortina D'Ampezzo, 186 Kms

[Bernie's eyesore]

Pozzovivo is going to have to go soon if he can.

 

[Parrulo]

don't look back ivan, robotize yourself!!!!!!

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Maybe he'll finally get some respect?

Yup, after Cervinia I said I might have to take him seriously as a challenger. I still struggle with it, I don't know what it is. Some may joke that it's because he speaks English, but I'm talking about not taking him seriously, not disliking him.

I think it's because he's accumulated his palmarès mostly in rather unassuming fashion, I haven't really noticed just how good a lot of his results have been.

 

[The Sheep]

they'll need to dump Hesjedal

 

[Bala Verde]

Just tuned in. Where's slagter?

 

[The Hitch]

Im starting to think Rodriguez may finally get a podium on a gt. They do enough here he can make up for whatever future losses he will get on riders like Henao.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Now lets see if Henao can hold himself together and come in still top 10.

 

[c&cfan]

don't look back ivan, robotize yourself!!!!!!

[Dekker_Tifosi]

[TeoSheva]

[vcampbell]

Henao doesnt like very steep stuff...

Giau is steep, Angliru is very steep

[meat puppet]

Hesjedal looks really, really strong. Looking at the others and drinking.

This, basically. As though he is itching to go.

 

[DominicDecoco]

Need to suck my doubts about Hejsedal's climbing skills back. He is doing rather fantastic right now. Long way to go, though.

 

[Zoetemelk-fan]

Just tuned in. Where's slagter?

He got slaughted

 

[UpTheRoad]

Pozzo is going to blast off soon. He looks very relaxed.

 

[Gloin22]

Giau is steep, Angliru is very steep

Yeah. He'll improve trough seasons though. Stelvio is a climb he'll prefer. Long and steady.

 

[hfer07]

WTF happened to Henao?

 

[will10]

Hesjedal is genuine contender

 

[Pharazon]

somehow Uran's hanging on here

 

[Finn84]

Didi is there!

 

[PedalCastro]

Absolute carnage on the road! Will the sprinters struggle with the time limit today?

 

[The Sheep]

Hesjedal wow

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Hesjedal goes.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Hesjedal attacks
