Super stuff this.

Can't watch ffs have an appointment. Only the sporadic gaze on my cellphone. Will be interesting to see if Tom retains pink.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Not sure Quintana has it.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Very good that from Dumoulin. Big day tomorrow though with a brute of a climb at the finish that is famous for the duel between Pantani and Tonkov. Then the Monte Grappa on Saturday.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Looking at the profile TD has the worst of the mountains behind him, but he still hasn't won yet.

Interesting move from Quintana and Nibali

Oh if this is correct there will be handbags after the race.

Quintana going down significantly in my estimations this tour. Not that he'll be bothered of course, but still.

I understand what you mean. Still the fume is marvellous, finally some spectacle not like these boring Tour de France spectacles. Loads of Dutch people commentating that this is the difference between the North and South of Europe; in the South cheating is revered. Quite a leap to to come to that conclusion, but hey ...

I'm quite ambivalent towards him atm; doesn't show a lot of sportsmanship but at least we get spectacle this way.

Good stuff this.

Haha it would be awesome if Pinot was to win the Giro. Really like him. Very unlikely, but it would be good.

And a dude with a toilet roll.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Good stuff from Pinot and Pozzo.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Quintana in pink.

Big day on the Grappa tomorrow. Dumoulin will need to hold on for his life.

 

[Armel]

Dumoulin winning the Giro. Already 54 seconds good for him. Also pleased for Jungels who has taken the white jersey.
