Giro d'Italia - Stage 12
Thursday, 20 May 2010
Sunny and more leisurely 206km here today. What looked to be sprint until some of the GC favourites attacked on the last little climb of the day. My fault for not being there, I didn't position myself very well. I was relying on Sky and Garmin to chase a bit more. Hence me getting frustrated with those who were purposely slowing down the chase, not the done thing in professional cycling. I let it be known to them, much to everyone's entertainment – sorry about that - not bad for a boring rider who never attacks, hey?
The group stayed away, with Vinokourov, Basso, Scarponi etc. gaining 10sec's and Pozzato winning the stage.
