Giro d'Italia Stage 20: Bormio - Passa del Tonale (178km)

[eljimberino]

Reckon Evans is a potential whistleblower? He seems pretty bottled up.

Plus stage wins to Goss, Lloyd and Evans. Alongside that Mick Rogers won California. Been great for Aussies, just not the big prize. Porte or Evans might win the last stage.

Optimistic. Porte did well at Romandie, but he's been killing himself in the mountains to stay in white and winning the TT would be a huge ask.

I dunno, but we're still owed a doping story out of Italy - I think it was Thor that said so.

The video problems are part of the other side of the all climbs all the time argument.

Maybe. He is so intense that one of these days he will explode and who knows the outcome of that particular event

His Giro, the weather...............


BANG

 

[issoisso]

Vino had a mechanical. Sastre dropped him. What is this? a descent?

God knows what happened meanwhile

 

[ak-zaaf]

That moto wasn't drafting Liquigas. Those are all lies! ;p

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Vino has just attacked according to radiocorsa

 

[Stelvio]

Recorded images from Livigno..

 

[JA.Tri]

Bloody weather (speaking of weather )...as stated such a shame...

That was from earlier in the stage.

True. I don't expect either to win, but they must be a bit of chance.

 

[JA.Tri]

With this weather the descent of the Gavia looks downright mean...gaps??? lottery???

Eurosport says they are being told there may well be no live pictures AT ALL today.

 

[bobs nob]

He just said they may bail out of coverage altogether in favor of some live sports.

 

[Publicus]

Yep. It's like Contador saying there's no way he wants to be fit enough to win the Dauphine Libere because it would mean he's messed up for the Tour.

I think he will be fit enough to win it. What he has said (in the past) is that he won't go deep to do so. No blistering attacks. Though I think the Alpe d'Huez stage has to have him thinking about it.

 

[HL2037]

Eurosport now reports that the plane that reflects the radio signal can not fly because of the weather - so no live images before the finish line...

Bugg3r. Maybe I should catch some sleep...

 

[HL2037]

I so hope they are wrong

 

[Tuarts]

SNOW!

Wow, it knocked me for six so ACF is probably unconscience. I'll stand in for the Cadel fanboys, someone has to speak up amongst the haters.

Belated but LunaJive, your threads have been great, simply because a) they're clearly marked and b) stickied. Keep up the good work.

Rumours of no pictures now until finish. ******.

Now does anyone have a link from justin.tv for the uk eurosports feed? Fromsport is not working (again) for me for one reason or another .

 

[Zoncolan]

Gap from the Vino/Sastre group to the Basso group seems to be growing. Over 2 minutes now.

Didn't he pretty much gift it to Valverde last year in exchange for possible help at the Tour?

That was from earlier in the stage.

Which is why my post was in the past tense and ended in "god knows what happened meanwhile"...

 

[Publicus]

Not at all. He said going in that he wasn't going for the overall and that he was going to shadow Cuddles. That's what he did.
