Todays Mountain ITT could make or break the race.
It's an insane mountain climb, which is really going to make a
difference.
I'm still rooting for Danilo Di Luca, as I think he's got it in him.
Ricco has shot his wad. I think he'll fade.
Contador sure looks good though....who knows.
Today, IMHO, is the big day. I'm predicting a huge mix up in the times,
which could have huge effects on the final outcome.

Di Luca...let's see.... the guy who was stripped from his Pro Tour title
for doping - an oxymoron itself given there's no Pro Tour.
The guy who was caught on telephone taps talking about EPO dosages.
The guy who was banned from worlds for his involvement in the "Oil for
Drugs" doping affair by working with Italian doping doctor Carlos
Santuccione.
Di Luca is a bigtime doper. Bigger than than any Spaniard.
Thanks,
Magilla

Nice Gibo, on the podium, now, a badass attack on Friday or Saturday
and he can win !
Not bad for an old guy. He'll make a fine addition to the Fatty Masters
(once he puts on a few pounds; the guy is way closer to Twiggy than Thor).

Dumbass,
That's what HAHW meant when he wrote, "I think he's got it in him."

Yes, gotta love that guy, the former "best climber in the world" who
challenged LA to race the Giro !
I think he's got a badass attack left in him, probably on Friday...
