I'm very happy with Theos victory. He was the fastest, and it was time for someone not from Norway to take a stage. Kristoff seemed to be sitting on his wheel, but Bos was just too fast.
I have a feeling(hope) that Edvald has focused much more on his climbing, and perhaps today he will show it off. I'm also wondering how Kristoff will handle the climbs. He has improved a lot these last years, so he might be able to hold on for a little longer.
The Blanco team could perhaps make things interesting with alternating 1-2 attacks with Mollema and Nordhaug. Then there is all the other teams, which I know nothing about.
I'm a bit disappointed with the picture quality. When the weather was really bad I understood that they couldn't send up any helicopters, but it seems to me that the signal relay system they use is not up to the task.
Could be some air regulations that make things difficult for them of course, but it really seems strange that they can't relay better images.
Anyway it's the first time I'm watching this race, so if I say something stupid, you'll know why.
If I read the weather at yr.no correctly it looks to be partly cloudy with around 20c. So the weather should be fine considering the weather this year.
PS! It seems Eurosport will be sending this stage later, so perhaps one should be careful not to post the result too early. Or perhaps one should stay away from this thread until one has seen the stage.
I choose the latter method. I'm recording the Norwegian broadcast, while watching the Giro.
