Giro d'Italia Stage 7: Carrara - Montalcino (222km)

[issoisso]

OK, the crumbs trying to seize the opportunity whilst the big loafs show grace. Ace.

Shows their respective characters.

To be fair Gerdeman was already on the loose when the crash appeared...

 

[Ferminal]

Yeah, I see Vino trying to rein it in. Linus is a bit of dyck. It looked like he was caught and then took off again.

Vino is a true professional.

Although it's amazing how he's staying out of trouble when any other top10 favourite has had something go wrong so far I guess he doesn't want to get on the bad side of karma!

 

[Faserr]

milram and vino should not push the pace. not good sportsmanship.

gerdemann attacked before the crash..

Seems like the Giro will be almost decided before they take on a single mountain.

Terminillo will be completely lame compared to this!

That was another Milram rider who tried take off, it wasn't Linus.

 

[Francois the Postman]

Vino didn't start pushing the pace... Gazelli attacked and now Vino is chasing.

It's Garzelli's fault not Vino's. You can't expect Vino to sacrifice time to Garzelli because Evans fucked up.

Something tells me Vino won't mind having an excuse.

Proof that some people have no idea what they're talking about. Someone e-mails eurosport to vent about how Sastre isn't a favourite because the Giro has 4 time trials....

Cyclocross!!!!!!

Here comes the mud!

Looks like Cadel F#$ked up by missing the crash...

That 60km flat TT will give him a lot of trouble

Cyclocross!!!!!!

Ad break!!!!!!

 

[Walkman]

Can we put together a list please!
Vino is in the first group?
Sastre in the main pack? Evans too?
Nibali is back chasing? But what about Basso?

 

[Mellow Velo]

Gerdemann and Vino have a minute and a half. Vino won't work..........but he is sitting on.
This won't go down well in Gazetto land.

Most, if not all of the rest are in the Nibali group.

Vino/Garzellli
.
Evans
..
Nibali/Basso/Sastre

That's all I know atm, I assume most other favourites are in the Evans group, somewhere between the other two.

Thanks for clarifying. They are riding through soup...

 

[issoisso]

I still can't see where Evans is

 

[Highlander]

Where is Basso? Is he still upfront or has he been dropped?

 

[auscyclefan94]

Looks like Cadel F#$ked up by missing the crash...

where is cadel? auscycle is getting sad!

OMFG An ad break, you first miss the crash and the you go to an ad break straight after it?

 

[Cobblestones]

Nibali is about 1:20 back. Evans seems to have recovered. Don't see Basso.

 

[The Sheep]

Too bad Boom is not riding the Giro

 

[Ferminal]

Look at the dirt!
