Check out the Gran Sasso area in the same region. I backpacked around there a couple of years ago, and it's really beautiful.Yeah, I never think of the Apennines being so stunning.
Got to get me some Richie Porte before he is gone forever Even if it is tempo in the skineos train
It's always different when it happens to somebody else. Ineos were notorious for demanding respect for the jersey when a mechanical or similar happened but not returning the favour and Movistar are notorious for taking any opportunity to get on the front to take time - but neither were as blatant as Saxo used to be.No respect for the maglia rosa?
Romain Bardot looks gooooood
Won't start to hype him because come on, there is a 99.9% chance he implodes suddenly and spectacularly, but these legs might be just enough for a good breakaway performance...Vincenzo needs to have some decency and get dropped before I start to delude myself into thinking maybe he has something to offer over the next 2 weeks.
Happy days! Still 6.5k to go and so much damage done. Go Landa and bardet.Richie porn!
One of the most scenic rides I have ever done was over the Appenines from Arezzo to Orvieto. Incredible scenery.Yeah, I never think of the Apennines being so stunning.
Bilbao will suddenly re-emerge in about 5th place at the line won't he, like Laghi di Cancano.
Before anyone starts hyping him, I fully expect Nibali to finish behind Yates today
