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

[GroupDK]

Why are there som many East European flags.

Czech all the way.

Croatian, Hungarian Ukrainian.

Dont know, and if there are more then other nations riders, but shocking to see the mentalitet of these people of spectators..

****ed up in the head..

 

[hoolaparara]

Oh noes! bad weather... its because its so high up.. this is dangerous we must ban all racing over 100 metres high!

 

[Eshnar]

The sky is dropping its let down now.

 

[Tuarts]

Oh the pain on their faces. Respect

 

[Big GMaC]

If they had done crostis this whole climb would have been in the rain and epic

 

[The Hitch]

So who wants to start the "there is no way fuji is clean" thread

 

[Bala Verde]

What a stage...

 

[pedaling squares]

I don't know that Contador had much left in him, his attacks looked good as always but they didn't create gaps that lasted. He kept getting reeled in by Nibali. Probably just had enough left to jump now and then.

 

[zapata]

Seriously, Goazen! Goazen!

Then that's what I wanted to chant. Beautiful win!

 

[cocteau_ireland]

Will youtube them Only refollowing cycling after 15yrs avoiding it

 

[Jamsque]

Contador looked barely winded when he crossed the line.

 

[Publicus]

Great win by Anton, but I'm baffled by Contador's tactics today, I don't understand what he was thinking considering what he apparently still had left.

Simple. Ride defensively and no unnecessary expenditures of energy. If by some miracle he's absolved by CAS, he plans on defending his TdF title.

 

[The Hitch]

If they had done crostis this whole climb would have been in the rain and epic

Nah they would have started an hour early so got to the ZOnco only slightly later.

 

[Bavarianrider]

Boring, didn't live up to the hype at all.

 

[superconfex]

Team Gaddy 5th overall???

 

[UpTheRoad]

Great win by Anton, but I'm baffled by Contador's tactics today, I don't understand what he was thinking considering what he apparently still had left.

The first time he bridged to Anton he jumped too fast. He closed the gap, or most of it, immediately, but probably went too hard and it hurt him a bit (just a bit).

 

[hfer07]

Hats off to Anton & Nibali-they surely made sweat hard Conta today.
& Gadret is doing a hell of a Giro-damn

 

[pedaling squares]

Never heard boos at finish b4 Are there precedents?

Contador Tour de France 2010

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Boring, didn't live up to the hype at all.

That was a great stage, a shame crotis was removed, which would have made it epic.

But that was just pure epicness.

 

[Ramira]

Anton 1 second behind Nibbles in the GC now, the fight for 2nd will be interesting.

 

[on3m@n@rmy]

Contador looked barely winded when he crossed the line.

saving himself for tomorrow maybe

 

[Thomsena]

Amazing stage this wasn't it.

 

[Bala Verde]

Seriously, Goazen! Goazen!

I was xoqueing.

 

[zapata]

Nieve did well also, in seventh.

 

[The Hitch]

So Nibali leads June 6th gc by 1 second.

Scarponi on podium Rodriguez top 10.
