Stage 20: Saturday May 26th, Caldes/Val di Sole - Passo dello Stelvio 219km

[Caruut]

Can we stop saying this is a good ride by VDV? Riding on the front while absolutely chucking time away to De Gendt is not really that great.

Does anyone know what the weather is like? Someone earlier said there was a tailwind.

Will LIquigas work for Hesjedal?

If Liquigas helps out Garmin again (it has happened a lot this Giro) I will puke.

 

[trevim]

Hesjay is in a tough place now. Will he take charge once VdV ends?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

I was under the impression De Gendt was still under the Maglia Bianca limit, so I didn't know if I should be happy for his great performance or sad for seeing Urán losing the shirt. It is great to realise I was wrong.

You are wrong. No maglia bianca rider

 

[Steel4Ever]

No one ever argued that bike riders were a smart bunch.

 

[gerundium]

It's going up to 5 ****ing minutes. That nearly puts TDG into virtual pink!

 

[Trofinios]

Still good pace by De Gendt. This is just incredible.

 

[SantiBotero]

Liquigas was in front every single stage and today, when it make sense to Caruso to save Basso's podium... nop.

Not a great ride from a Contador like climber Vande Velde? Are kidding us, right?

 

[Parrulo]

5 minutes and 4 seconds.

already within striking distance for the itt

 

[BillytheKid]

Hesjedal making that face for a long time but still there, either its real or their trying to froce the others Jrod to move early.

 

[mr. tibbs]

This is Basso and Scarponi's only chance: make Hesjedal chase by himself.

 

[Descender]

You go Thomas! You go kid!

 

[EddyW.]

He's 1,5 km in front. To catch him they should start going now.

 

[Random Direction]

wow - time gaps accurate. clinical performance by De Gendt

 

[DominicDecoco]

I'm officially a fan.

Come on, Thomas!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

TDG just turned pro (or rather big team) a little later then say sagan

tdg almost virtual pink

 

[UpTheRoad]

De Gendt is riding away with this! Wow, what a ride.

 

[TeoSheva]

Basso is loosing his 4th place, Hesjedal is going to lose the giro: who HAS to work?

 

[trevim]

I wish I could do fast forward to see the outcome of this!

 

[jsem94]

I cannot believe this is happening. How long has it been since a Belgian podium in a GT?

 

[will10]

5 minutes and 4 seconds.

already within striking distance for the itt

If the stage finished now Thomas would win the overall. But I think he'll lose at least a minute yet. Amazing ride though

 

[Pharazon]

what the **** are the peloton doing?

 

[EddyW.]

Look at those virtual standings. 30 seconds to go.
