Giro d'Italia 2011: Stage 14 Lienz to Monte Zoncolan

[killswitch]

The Pope is coming to play.

 

[The Hitch]

So Rujano loses any chance of a podium.

 

[Ramira]

Contador still following quite easily.

Or is he? This climb is hard to read.

He's clearly conserving energy by following, however it's hard to know if it's because he can't do much better or he's just being smart and saving energy for the next week and possibly the TDF.

 

[nomendil]

I can't help but think Crostis might have cracked Contador today...

 

[Eshnar]

Nibali really impressive, even if he won't win today

 

[craig1985]

I don't think Anton will get this.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

This is getting interesting. Where is Rujano????

wayyyy back. Behind menchov

 

[The Hitch]

I think Jose is just behind Menchov. COuld limit his losses to about a minute.

 

[Publicus]

I can't help but think Crostis might have cracked Contador today...

You can think that, but I think you would be wrong.

 

[Tuarts]

Kreuziger gone AWOL

 

[GroupDK]

only a few sec. nibali and contador from Anton, so contador have played this to the point at this moment.-

 

[Jamsque]

There's Rujano! Behind Menchov but still going. He might limit his losses to less than a minute if he is lucky.

 

[Ramira]

Nvm me saw it wrong.

 

[ingsve]

This is getting interesting. Where is Rujano????

Seems to be 6th on the road atm.

 

[killswitch]

This is getting interesting. Where is Rujano????

Somewhere in Austria...

 

[Ildabaoth]

Rujano is like 100 m behind Menchov (i.e. 5 minutes behind Menchov)

 

[GoAndyGo]

Nibali is gonna ride Contador back to Anton's wheel just for Contador to take off on them. This isn't looking promising.

 

[Ferminal]

lol Bertie is taking the **** here...

 

[Fourier]

Just got home from a ride, beautiful weather. Did I miss anything?

 

[Ramira]

What on earth is going on between those guys on the motorcycles.

 

[mr. tibbs]

Scarponi!?!?!

 

[Tuarts]

Currently (3km):

Anton > Nibali,Contador >> Scarponi > Menchov >>>>>>>>>> JRod > Rujano

 

[Spare Tyre]

Moto traffic control sorting out the motos?

 

[Bala Verde]

Nibali and Contador have enough oxygen to even have a bit of a discussion...

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

There's Rujano! Behind Menchov but still going. He might limit his losses to less than a minute if he is lucky.

Problem is, this is a stage he needed to gain time on the others.
