Giro d'Italia Stage 4: Savigliano - Cuneo (TTT) 32.5km

[Cobblestones]

Vino half a minute behind Nibali and maybe 20" behind Basso.

 

[TRDean]

+1

Balance would be nice.

No offense...but you and chick bring it on yourself....I mean really...

 

[sportzchick]

So what are the GC now?

 

[Francois the Postman]

Balance would be nice.

Physician Health Thyself.

BMC couldnt do no more TBH - just so damm fustrating (being laughed at by the anti Aussie brigade isnt helping)

Jesus Christ are you that thick?
We were not laughing at the performance of BMC, they did fine.
It was the irony of Omega beating them. Hilarious!

And if you can't handle some humor on the net the ability to click that little x on the top right corner is there.

 

[Eyjafjallajokull]

Looks like Evans should have stayed with Lotto after all!

They finally do a decent ITT.

 

[luckyboy]

Messy by Astana there

 

[Roland Rat]

No offense...but you and chick bring it on yourself....I mean really...

So they're not the same person?

Was not a horrible day for Cadel.

Losing only 1'19" to the winner was ahead of any expectations. The problem... Liquigas won. If Sky had been the team 1'20" ahead and Liquigas was closer to the Katusha time, the day would have been pretty close to perfect for Evans.

no offence my foot!

All I wanted to do is support Cadel in this thread - I havent done anything more

BMC performance was excellent considering who they field. It's ACF94 reactions that make this funny.

 

[Roland Rat]

So has anyone got a GC more than Nibali in pink?

 

[Eyjafjallajokull]

So anyway....

The real winners were Sky.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

No offense...but you and chick bring it on yourself....I mean really...

agree.
I have friends who are obnoxious regarding arsenal. They make me hate arsenal a whole lot. I think it is the same with evans and some people here.

 

[Cobblestones]

WELL! What a race. Four stages, four lead-changes. One would imagine that Nibali would be able to defend it tomorrow, but with the way this Giro has been going...

Greipel's going to take it tomorrow with bonus seconds from his stage win

 

[auscyclefan94]

What is Vino doing

Who knows?

bmc 43 secs behind cervelo.

 

[ImmaculateKadence]

Oh Vino....why am I not surprised

Considering BMC's team and the fact that Liquigas tend to be fabulous in this discipline, I'd be ecstatic with the result if I were Evans

 

[sportzchick]

veeeeeeeeeeeeery funny

 

[Andre.J]

I think the race is still between Evans and Sastre

 

[sportzchick]

agree.

hey your the ones that started it

 

[Roland Rat]

Ah ok.

Basso @13s
Vino @ 33s

 

[Jamsque]

Astana probably lost 10 seconds in the last KM there, I hope that doesn't come back to haunt Vino later in the race.

I think Sky did pretty well to come second despite going out in what seemed to be at least slightly less favourable conditions than some of the last few teams, and losing one man right out of the starting gate. I don't know if they could have done any better by trying not to shed so many riders, if they'd dropped the pace to let guys catch back on they probably would have ended up much slower than they did by just going full gas all the way and damn the consequences.

sportzchick never talks while Cadel's wife is drinking water

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

I assume he is.
This race is very open.

Vino, Basso and Nibali might have a bit of an advantage over sastre and evans, but i view those two as stronger riders. It is gonna be a great race imo. Good results for the racing perspective.
