Giro d'Italia Stage 11: Lucera - L'Aquila (262km)

[taiwan]

Cyclingnews says 16:55

Sorry, posting a whgole lot of different times = confusing. now thegazzetta ticker says 16:55, not updating properly.

Rai stream is unhappy now, so no gap on screen.

You can do it over the phone but it is nowhere near as efficient. I could create a 10 page thread on the number of times not being able to bet via the internet in play has cost me on cycling.

No, make that a 20 page thread.

Bet365 - best in-play betting in the world.

Just got back from the UK, am trying to see if I can get my pound account up but somehow I think they can probably trace your IP.

WELL! What a stage already, and we have 100km still to go. The break will probably detonate on the climb up to Capo di Valle, although it isn't super hard. I want to see Wiggo on the attack.

I want to see Wiggo on the attack.

That wouldn't be smart. He needs to work with the others, not attack them.

I don't mean right now, I mean on the finishing climbs.

I'm not sure if he's got his boys up driving the pace, Rai Sport is in studio coverage at the moment.

 

[Spare Tyre]

Zomegnan deserves a pay rise.

I mean the same. Attacking is not smart. he doesn't want to drop them and go alone, he wants them with him until the end to eke out every possible second.

Not to mention it's very doubtful he'd have the capacity to drop them.

Apparently Saxo and Caisse are the ones driving the péloton. Saxo have Porte in virtual MR, and Caisse would have Arroyo (who already put a great performance in on the strade bianche) in 2nd place (plus they have 5 riders in that breakaway).

AND cn needs a demotion, they take forever to update the ticker.

Please tell me you mean the break

 

[toontoon]

How the hell did the peloton let a group that big get that far away? Crazy stuff. Now I need to get in contact with my friendly bookie. But who the hell do I back?

 

[Jamsque]

Saxo and Caisse are indeed at the front of the group, and I see a couple of Skys as well. Rain slickers are on so it is not easy to tell who is who.

Maybe they're just on the front to kill the chase.

Please tell me you mean the break

It's the peloton now

Evans throwing a tantrum seems like a safe bet

 

[auscyclefan94]

1eme peleton splitting up.

 

[Spare Tyre]

106 km to go

 

[Jamsque]

There doesn't seem to be much of an organised chase in the Maglia Rosa group. Commentators are saying the gap is eighteen minutes.

that was so funny I forgot to laugh...

Cant you come up with anything original?????

 

[Sasquatch]

Bwahahahahhahaa

 

[BroDeal]

I wonder what goes through the minds of the GC contenders as they sit in the peloton and watch fifty-six riders cruise off into the sunset. Is it, "Hmmmm, I think I should spend the next eighteen minutes picking my nose."

maybe they have given up?

 

[issoisso]

Cyclingnews backs Goss to win....

......Correct me if I'm wrong. Doesn't this stage end on a climb?

 

[Sasquatch]

that was so funny I forgot to laugh...

It's true. He's been known to be a big sook!
