Congratulations. You've had a bigger impact on the Giro than the majority of the Cannondale riders.

Plot twist: his name is also Ivan Basso

(I've met two Ivan Bassos over the years, none were cyclists)

This is getting confusing

Wow! Daniel Lloyd just said my name on international television!

Cool; I missed that but am recording so will check later Was he answering a question you sent in?

 

[glassmoon]

Gotta love the Bardiani team. The only team at giro without a team-bus but riding like hell shaming a lot of big budget squads pretty hard...

He'd be in with a decent shout if he doesn't do anything silly.

Ag2r too late. Yawn.

I guess this is why Ivan sucks nowadays. It's one of his twins riding around at the front now. The real Ivan retired

This is all hilarious (I'm serious!). The actual context was that he and Kirby were wondering aloud how many riders Garmin still had in the race at the end of the 2012 Giro when Ryder won. I tweeted Lloyd the answer and he said something like "Here you go. Christopher Rowe tells us it was seven. Didn't list their names, though."

Poor Cannondale.

There's nothing in life I understand less than this rider.

Ag2r too late. Yawn.

Still can do something vs the other dudes fighting for 3rd.

Just in time for Pozzovivo to take over pink after tomorrow and Zoncolan!!

At work today :/ shouldnt the peleton be hitting final climb about now? What is the size of a MR group?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Where timewise is deGent and Basso with respect to the Peloton?

 

[pecival]

Vai Ivan!

 

[Eclipse]

Where timewise is deGent and Basso with respect to the Peloton?

Basso (13th) is 22 down on Quintana and 14 down on Kiserlovski in 10th.

deGent is even further back.

Top 10 is super close, and then it's all over the place after that.

 

[hfer07]

wow- De Gendt trying to pull a De Gendt

 

[happytramp]

Remember the old saying....."He who attacks last attacks longest"

 

[Netserk]

Basso super dom for Delfino?

 

[Pricey_sky]

Robo Basso 2014!!

 

[hfer07]

Garming pulling..... Hesjedal feeling good?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Basso has become horrible

 

[Flamin]

How can anyone not love De Gendt.
