2013 Giro d'Italia Stage 14: Cervere - Bardonecchia 168KM

[Afrank]

Nibali looks cold. Should be riding in shorts and short sleeve.

 

[ILovecycling]

Wow great finish,Santa emotional win!Great for Vini!Nibali in control
Betancur looks great indeed. Uran was worse,but Giro is long,we can see surprises.Nothing is decided

 

[Climbing]

Those guys are frozen...

Nibali is sponsored by the Italian Air Force?

Sharks are naturally cold blooded, so it's not that big of a deal

Man, feel bad for Scarponi. I've been in that position at a race. I remember we had the police throwing blankets on riders.

One guy had 2 people trying to pry his frozen hands off the handlebars. BroDeal might know about this since he's a local too. Lotoja a few years back.

Nibbs is shivering like a MoFo-- damn weather

Santambrogio is applying the "peak-all-year" SKY philosophy.

 

[maxmartin]

will they have taped race footage?

 

[luckyboy]

Santambrogio is gonna podium

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

If he forgets about the GTs and drops his itt training, maybe he can go back to his old climbing level. But ever since his ITT improved, his climbing has been useless.

Personally - and I've said this countless times since it happened - I think the pin in his leg and resulting consequences of that injury has destroyed him as a climber. IMO he didn't even look that great at California last year. I haven't been convinced by a single ride of his in the last two years. He looks terrible since the injury happens. His acceleration especially has looked ugly.

If it isnt related to that, well i dunno then.i guess then blanco not getting a sponsor and him having to ride elsewhere might not be a bad thing. God lets get kelderman to a competent management team please.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

will they have taped race footage?

Yep. Should be downloadable on cyclingtorrents.nl later too.

Astana is sponsored by Aeronautica militare,thats fashion brand,pretty good btw

 

[Orbit501]

That was actually quite exciting watching them emerge from the mist like that, and the way the break was caught so close to the finish...without us actually seeing it. Italian commentators on Rai sound great too.

Nice! Santam has a great shot at making the podium.
Also great to see Betancur move into the top 10.

 

[jens_attacks]

hopefully telegraphe is on tomorrow
santa can win another one i reckon and slowly getting 2nd overall
nibali is the boss of this race though

 

[ferryman]

That was strangely exciting And we still have a live fix to look forward to on Diablo in Calif)

 

[Afrank]

Way to call it Jens.

from the shadow, this chubby face will strike a deadly blow to lots of favourites

Majka just 7 seconds ahead of Betancourt on the White young rider jersey

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Majka limiting his losses, good thing!

 

[Kwibus]

Except his ITT isn't good enough to win those either.

Not the biggest stage races, but Oman and ToC he won. Both times with a really good TT.

Ok it's not P-N or Tirreno.......

 

[whittashau]

One has to imagine there will be a few sick guys tomorrow. Hopefully none of the main GC men

 

[Carols]

Sharks are naturally cold blooded, so it's not that big of a deal

and he took a bite today

 

[DenisMenchov]

Not bad by Majka. Kiserlovski was very good. Nibs and Santa excellent.
