2009 Giro : Stage 5 - Wednesday, May 13: San Martino di Castrozza - Alpe di Siusi, 12

Pellizotti... dropped... 47 down and 1:27 down on GC... as i was saying...

 

Nice to be back home in Europe : live TV coverage of the Giro today and TV highlights each night.
Just watching the highlights now.

Liquigas did a huge turn in the final 20kms.

 

a good streaming is offered (in Italy!) by our national television... googlesearch "Rai tre" and on the right you will find the "diretta rai tre" (= streaming). Don't know if it works abroad.

What I liked most? 1) Menchov outsprinted Di Luca...............an INCREDIBLE action, considering the very good Di Luca's aptitude at sprinting. Menchov is a serious trouble for the GC if he manages to mantain his condition. 2) Szmyd did a great work... I know him personally and he's also a very nice guy giving advices and joking during (soft) trainings. A really good example of great professionality. 3) Kessiakoff nice performance.

 

Bradley Wiggins outclimbing Armstrong : hilarious!
Wonder is Armstrong riding clean?


Liquigas looked really strong today : DiLuca's going well.
I like the KILLER.

The rider Schmidt for Liqi looks to be a tasty climber.
Basso looked quite comfortable.

Good win for Menchov.

Good ride by leipy and SASTRE.

 

dfddddddddddddddddddddd

 

Horner hasn't been able to ride with Evans for the last couple of years but finished with Leipheimer yesterday. Hmmmm.

 

So cynical heinkel, he has just lost weight and increased his cadence - voila.

 

ssssssssssssssss
