Or that he's suffered like a ***** for the past 3 weeks and has no reason to ride as fast as possible today? Having said that, that one TT performance in last years Tour de France was very suspicious, even if he does have an extremely good TT position.

The Brits have come and gone, they ain't going to be winning anything today. Guess Millar should get back on the gear, and offer some to Wiggins whilst he's at it.

Ricco is at 84th position at the first time checkpoint.

Looks like all the GC boys are going slow today. That would make sense given how they've had to work in the past two days, looks like Pinotti will take this away.

In contrast, Contador is at 14th position ahead of Millar. It is very doubtful that Ricco will podium in this Giro.

Pellizotti has a good run: 34'15"; 1 sec behind Menchov I believe.

Bruseghin gets in at 34'18", and thus stays ahead of Pellizotti by just a couple of seconds!

Ricco must have speeded up a bit, as he came in just less than a minute after Bruseghin. So, he keeps his place.

And Contador keeps the pink jersey with an excellent TT (compared to the other GC riders). Well, no surprises there.

Nice ride by Vandeveld.

Brace yourselves for all the Kool-Aid drinking chest beaters to show up and boast about the fact that the rider with the best dope in professional cycling won his 2nd Grand Tour.

The only reason you are worshipping AC is because he is JB's boy. What a tool!

"Levi in the start house ! He looks doped."

Trash is awake - he looks doped.

Just stopped by to laugh at the loosers. That's five stage races for Astana already this year. It will probably be 2 Grand Tours. ROFL.

Hey Trash - your man Simoni sucked. I told you he wasn't getting on the podium.

Wow! The deluge started earlier than I thought. Very amusing.

That's right. Go on telling yourself that if it makes you feel better - looser.
