even despite of that attack,he still had to stay with the best on the final climb.he didn't.no way he will win this year's giro.i will still cheer for him tomorrow though.always a pleasure to see him attacking even if it wasn't smart.

for the overall i still have huge hopes for pozzovivo,the colombians and why not tira?

Didn't ryo say he was going to get 2 minutes today ?

Anyway ryder hejsdal is proving to be a far superior climber.

While it's good for the viewer that he tried, I am not sure it was the best idea tactically.
He wanted to have an advantage for the descent ;)

Rujano can't win this Giro, believes theyoungest.

Even if it just was a bad day for Rujano.
You are NOT the worlds third best climber if you can't follow the top 20 in such a stage no matter how bad day you have

I guess we were all just haters for suggesting we didn't think he was as strong as last year.

Hate on Ryo, not Rujano.

As for that quote, give it a rest. Been beaten to death already. It's like when Boonen said before the Tour 2006 that he was the fastest and smartest sprinter, but ended up failing big time in the sprints(did wear the yellow jersey for a few days though). Sometimes riders say stupid things when they're in the flow of their lives.

No way he can win this. He clearly doesn't have so good form, as some stated here (and were nonsensely bashed for it) ;)

There is talk of Roman in the Astana thread.

True, even if he is a midget, sometimes I get the impression that he descends with the handbrake on.

I was just stating the obvious and I got bashed by that (I am exaggerating a little bit, but still).

Ryo is Frank Schleck, he abandons when things turn bad:D.

Doesn't matter we can revive this thread next Giro

He should ditch Rujano, admit that he's too inconsistent, and promote Henao to his #1 darling.

Hope he can try to go for a stage victory now.

only if the weather will be better otherwise no chance

i always said his body unfortunately is not made for giro.maybe he finally can go to a team and have a shot at the vuelta.
