Giro d' Italia 2014

[ScottCM]

Very delicate stage of the race. A group of about 20 riders on the run. Behind the group was split into two parts during the descent

 

BMC and Movistar are leading the chase

[tombeej]

Ja, Trek Factory racing have got their sights on the blue jersey now, so Arredondo is going to have to go after all these mid-stage mountains to keep racking up the points.

[ScottCM]

30 Second gap, Is this the stage to light up the Giro?

[ScottCM]

Average speed after the 2 h. of race: 44.400 Km/h

Lead out to 1'55" after 98km of racing

[ScottCM]

104km , lead out 3'04"

[ScottCM]

I don't see Arredondo's name, was he in fact first to the KOM points? That is only 14 names, so maybe he did but just isn't on the list.

Scarponi in Trouble on the climbs, that means he's nowhere close to any points for me in this Giro.

 

Blerry useless.

['Dale]

who's involved?

 

Just below the front of the bunch on a narrow rd

Still figuring it out

 

What a crash-marred Giro, wet or dry tarmac

[jcza]

WHAT?? Evans asking Androni to slow down so that Morabito can get back?
