'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share BMC are managing things on in the peloton with Daniel Oss sitting on the front. They have allowed the advantage to grow to 8 minutes now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share This is Evans' fourth Giro d'Italia and it is the third time he has worn the maglia rosa. He became the first Australian to wear the jersey in 2002, holding onto it for two days. He also wore it in 2010 for a day, before going onto winning the points and climber's jerseys. Evans' best finish at the Giro d'Italia was his third place last season. Edited May 18, 2014 by ' Dale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share There are a few sprinters in this leading group, including Gatto, Tanner and Duque, who will be interested in this intermediate sprint at the top of the climb. We can expect to see them dropping back not too long after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrumpyOldGuy Posted May 18, 2014 Share Dropped on the 1st CAT 1 climbHe must be suffering from injuries from crashing 2 days ago Yah, must be, unlike him to be dropped on, what for him, is a little bump in the road. Sad, but I also think age is getting to him as well, the ol boy cant recover from crashes like the 23 year old kids anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrumpyOldGuy Posted May 18, 2014 Share On another note Rolland looked good, he struggled near the end but I still fancy him as a GC contender. Quintana on the other hand, looked less than inspiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share Ullisi in the top 10 and not far down The intended GC contender for Lamprè has been Cunego (mysteriously out of form for several seasons now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share The gap has come down a little bit, but the peloton don't seem too interested in catching them. It now stands at 7 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
