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

[Highlander]

I can't really tell who any of the teams are as there is just too much mud.

 

[thrawn]

nibali didnt look good, did he drop off bassos group?

 

[Gregory]

Brillo finished

 

[Moondance]

Nibali is cooked.... This is going to be VERY ugly.

 

[issoisso]

Vino looks dead.

500cc of blood STAT

 

[Publicus]

I think Vino is faking.

 

[Jamsque]

Hahaha Vino does not look like he is enjoying himself much out there.

Neither does Nibali, for that matter.

What a change of this comments on this site compared with last year.
2008/9 Evans is cracking 2010 Evans is bridging
2008/9 Ha ha Evans 2010 huh, Evans kicks, impressive
2008/9 Cadel is sucking wheels 2010 Evans is leading the pack and pushing forwards
2008/9 Evans sux, no chance 2010 He is strong, fav for GC win
2008/9 Suck on that ACF 2010 "groan ACF is going to go nuts"

Go nuts ACF!!

Evans is doing it ****ing easy! What a great rider but i think he is saving his legs. Go for the stage win CAdel!

More like Basso is cooked and Nibali is waiting for his leader

Oh my goodness, best stage ever!! What suspense, what images .... big congrats to giro organizers !!!

As exciting as this is, I find it ridiculous that the Giro seems to be trying to kill off as many competitors as possible before we hit the mountains. Why would you focus on the Giro in 2011 if you know you'll need a lot of luck to make it to week two unscathed?

vino is in his lightest gear.. they might be able to drop him, not looking so good IMO

or is that kazach's pokerface/theater?

 

[python]

agree, does not look good.

 

[auscyclefan94]

team sky fans, comment is hilarious!

 

[Jamsque]

There is one more steep section before the finish, right after they get back on to the tarmac. If any of these leading group want to get away that is the place to attack.

 

[auscyclefan94]

garzelli looks very good.

 

[Francois the Postman]

That's what happened.

The more I watch Cadel, the more I like him. He is riding more like a champion and less like a wanna-be. Really great race today.

 

[Publicus]

I think this is Cuddles GC to lose.

This is just a great farking race.

 

[Potomac]

Scarponi was picking up sh(r)edded riders, and he came from the Basso/Nibblebits group.
