groups all over the road... i have no idea what's going on

 

[Lexman]

Must be cold at the finish - all the Rai crew on the Anteprima Giro have got there coats on!

pity for the podiumgirls

Stage 18 - Cav will instruct his domestique troops to pull back the break to get the red jersey. No troops left for Henao and Uran on the other days.

Preview of TdF in that will the domestiques be Cav's or Wiggins'?

Anyone got a handle on who's where? Also, can someone translate the advert with the man in the tree and the helicopter and the ladder?

Riders getting shelled. It's gonna be ugly for a good number of them.

Rabbotini, Bonnafond
Those Guys + 5'20
Peloton +6'38

Bus forming already so peloton might be picking it up on this climb

Do we still think that Cav will ride the TdF after finishing the Giro? Tour of Poland suddenly looks likely

[Bumeington]

Rabbotini solo

 

[Fetisoff]

Well, it's official. The Hog confirms - Frank's tummy hurt --> Frank pull out of the Giro

 

[jens_attacks]

pirazzi the nutter is there

 

[MrRoboto]

So Bruyneel fled to Italy to see Fränk abandon?

 

[Bumeington]

Well, it's official. The Hog confirms - Frank's tummy hurt --> Frank pull out of the Giro

That was the Hog before the stage, still talking about a possible podium. I reckon he's annoyed Frank pulled out

 

[SafeBet]

Ulissi and Malori bridging.

 

[jens_attacks]

garmin can't control it.groups all over the place

 

[Fetisoff]

pirazzi the nutter is there

Losada too. Interesting. Probably to be used as a possible launch pad for Purito. Could he try something before the last climb???

 

[hatcher]

Unsurprisingly, Flecha can't stay with them.

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Is that Petrov in Bruseghin group?
