THEN >>> the whole field finishes within 1:37 of each other and not only that but the top teams are separated by seconds despite a shift in wind pattern!!!

IF you are traveling at enough power to go 20mph, a 10 mph headwinds will force you down below 15!

But if your driving your F-ing car at 85 mph and you have a 10 mph headwind the same power gets you along at 80. Ha!

Yeah, and Columbia beat Garmin by 6 seconds and Astana by 13 seconds and they started first.

Astana beat LPR by 9 seconds - the last and second last to leave the start house.

SaxoBank started 15th and ended 13th; RaboBank started 2nd and finished 7th; AG2R started 5th and ended 21st.

So what's your point BigBo...

...nevermind.

Pettachi is ATLEAST as good as Cippo was at his best... Watch Pettachi win 9 stages of the 2004 Giro, and 4 stages of the 2003 Tour de France!

And totally clean to, lol!

Gotta say it, I'm not surprised - they are TT specialists that set out to win this stage... If they started to win every stage then I'd start to wonder.

Gotta say it, I reckon Pettachi was probably clean too. I also don't think he was intentionally doping when he tested + for his asthma meds, it is the season for hayfever. Much more annoyed that Di Luca wasn't suspended when he was so obviously hiding something.

The 2004 Giro was a joke. Almost no one showed up, and the ones who did were not in great form. Heck, the GC contest was between two riders on the same team.
