Giro d'Italia - Stage 7 - Maddaloni → Montevergine di Mercogliano - 110km

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Is it double points for the final climb?

No.

And yes, Kohler will keep his jersey

 

[Ferminal]

No, just 9, 5, 3, 2, 1.

Should be safe unless Scarponi or Garzelli wins (or Le Mevel gets 2nd or something).

 

[killswitch]

Very technical descent.

You read me like a book.

Thanks!

Finally Johnny H. is going forward. Hope he can continue this for the next days.

 

[Scirea]

Purito celebrated his birthday yesterday. The finish is not quite steep enough but still, he can surprise himself with a gift.

How far back is hoogerland on the leaderss

 

[Moncoutie]

Fancy Duarte to take this, if hes allowed to go on.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

How far back is hoogerland on the leaderss

Very far.

He was sick and on anti-biotics... lost minutes every stage

edit: I thought you meant on the GC. sorry

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

How far back is hoogerland on the leaderss

50 seconds. And he's 1.30 ahead of the maglia rosa.

 

[jaylew]

Hoog at 31" now. Coming down fast.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Johnny is killing himself to get there..
1 vs 5

I think he is committing suicide

So does Sean Kelly!

 

[auscyclefan94]

Getting back the last 30 seconds may be the hardest.

He'll pay for that effort on the final climb

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Looks like headwind to me. That doesn't help Johnny's cause

 

[auscyclefan94]

Hoogy is close!

 

[jaylew]

Down to 9".

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Have to say, I never thought Hooger would make it.

 

[UpTheRoad]

13 seconds! Hope he makes it soon so he has some time to recover.

EDIT: 9 seconds!

 

[insideout leadout]

Did he peak for this stage? That was really impressive to close that gap.

 

[roundabout]

Hope he blows up.

 

[Moondance]

Well, whad'dya know, Johnny might actually join up with the leaders.

Of course, I doubt he'll be able to do anything on the climb anymore, but that's further ahead than Hoogerland is capable of thinking.

EDIT: Really???? Johnny, seriously?

 

[will10]

well done Jonny for getting across, but you should've saved those good legs for another day where you had a chance of staying away.

 

[insideout leadout]

Haha....GO GO GO !
