Giro d'Italia Stage 15: Mestre - Monte Zoncolan (222km)

[Galic Ho]

Evans is holding the time. Keep it up Cadel. All is not yet lost.

 

[Jamsque]

Sastre has come past Nibali.

What is it with that guy and the start of climbs? He seems to take so long to find his pace.

Gawd dammmit. Fcuking commerical. This blows.

It's also the type of commercials. They hardly seem like paid advertisers. Just telemarketing.

 

[Moondance]

As soon as the % increases Basso's lead shoots up.

12 secs already since this new ramp started.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Come on cadel!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

42 seconds all of a sudden lol. This last 2km could be disastrous.

Good ride by Martin too. Very good to see.

 

[BroDeal]

Also, it looked like Cuddles blew completely, but seems to be doing okay now.

That low cadence climbing style of his is not good for super steep stuff.

 

[The Sheep]

40 seconds now

 

[Potomac]

So maybe it was smart for Niballi to wait for Basso on the muddy road stage.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

This really looks like the 2006 Basso to me.

 

[taiwan]

basso not smiling.

Gawd dammmit. Fcuking commerical. This blows.

Yeah that was pretty crappy of Universal. Basso is killing this.

 

[Jamsque]

Dan Martin is riding a fantastic climb, I'm glad to see him finally living up some of that promise he has shown over the past few years.

 

[Cobblestones]

Cuddles still only 29" back. He's doing ok on the less steep section.

 

[Tyke1968]

C'mon Sastre av it lad!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

50 seconds.

 

[Anonymous]

Almost a minute now.

 

[El Imbatido]

[auscyclefan94]

[issoisso]

What a way to celebrate your first on-the-road win in 4 years

agreed, this is 2006 basso.

No offense at all, but....you didn't see the 2006 Giro, did you? It was far more impressive than this. He was incredible.

 

[zapata]

it says 53 seconds to evans now.

 

[The Sheep]

Basso >> Evans +50 >> Scarponi +1,00 >> Cunego +1,20 >> Vinokourov +1,50 >> Sastre/Nibali +2,00.

 

[Cobblestones]

50 seconds.

Uh, I see. I think me feed is a bit behind.

 

[thehog]

This really looks like the 2006 Basso to me.

He posts all his blood vaules monthly.
