Alberto looks ok so far, a little uncomfortable but ok. I suppose the big test will be in the final hour when the pace gets much more frantic.

Average speed up untill now: 34.5 km/h

The breakaway??
So the peloton 32.

It is flat, even with head wind it is a shot pace.
Contador must be happy.
Uran, althoug he said he is already recovered, as well.

Rai commentator are saying that the asphalt of the road gets quite bad (I guess near the finish)
and that might put our injured hero in difficulty again.

How can you delete my entire response to gigs but not delete his original quote in which he falsely accuses me of holding an opinion I never expressed?

Also is there somewhere we can discuss chaingate. Everytime it comes up it gets blocked. Why don't you want it discussed?

Could Italy be any more beautiful? I love how the houses are all clustered together on a mountaintop and surrounded by gorgeous countryside. So different from the USA style of sprawl.

I deleted the messages that were after my warning.
Does anything prevent you to open a thread about that? I don't think so. This thread is for the race.

Can I get the post back by pm which is standard procedure on any forum for when a post gets deleted because it could be in a different thread?

When people don't have the common sense necessary to understand what the topic of a thread is, what else can I do.

They're talking about whether it's OK to attack Contador on Eurosport. I guess they don't find it off-topic. It is a 265 kilometer long stage.

Commentators talk about all random stuff during boring stages like this. Is it really that wrong? Let's try and not abusive our mod power.

You don't wanna pull out a netserk.

Why does the BeIN sports guy keep saying "as we near the finish" and "as we approach the finish" "as stage 7 winds down" when the coverage is coming on and off? There's hours to go. What speed does he think the riders go at?
