"Action without thought is a form of insanity, thought without action is a crime"
- Albert Einstien
Stage winner is going to go under under 1:35 . . .
. . . mind bending
wtf rogers?!
Ô col Bayard, Ô Tourmalet, à côté du Galibier, vous êtes de la pale et vulgaire bibine !
Lance is cooked . . .
but good effort still
looks like Menchov and Rogers are taking completely different approaches to the course
Ô col Bayard, Ô Tourmalet, à côté du Galibier, vous êtes de la pale et vulgaire bibine !
I just threw his name out yesteray in that prediction thread yesterday
only because of my VDS interests. Ha
yes indeed

Hey, look, they're showing LA.
What are the odds of that happening?
DiLuca + 43 on Menchov
Actually that is pretty good. If he is holding for last part could be real good.
This makes it interesting!
Over in Catalunya, UCI officials have shown up and are motioning Valverde to get off his bike.
He’s got his head down and is trying to get away…3 Garmin riders chasing, yelling something about riding clean…
No, wait—wishful thinking.
Top 5 today’s stage:
1. Julián Sánchez Pimienta (Contentpolis-AMPO)
2. Daniel Martin (Garmin)
3. Alejandro Valverde (Caisse d’Epargne) 8
4.Haimar Zubeldia (Astana) a 12
5.Mikel Astarloza (Euskaltel-Euskadi) a 21
Long day--bad grammar. That's the way it works.--Lance Armstrong
Dan Martin's coming out party this race is...

Has Zubeldia finally decided to prove to everyone that he really exists?!
Astarloza doing well too, for Team Txirrindulariak :-)
Adrenalina Italiana!
Bosisio
Showing that a bunch of really fast riders in the early time checks aren’t holding their form.
It wouldn't be a time trial...
…. without the obligatory camera shot of the rider in slow motion moving through the time check moving into and then out of focus.
Respect the Shit List; it respects you.
Universal keeps cutting out on me
and so i keep reloading here, not sure what the hell is going on now.
steephill.tv
is another great site for links to vid feeds

Thanks guys appreciate it!
sastre?

I suppose not all descents are alike. Maybe this one, not being overly steep, is more his type?

interesting factoid
universal guy: if Levi gets on the podium, he’ll be the first US rider to podium in all three grand tours.
No, Levi is right
Lance finished fourth in the Vuelta in ’98, but never podiumed.
lance has been on the podium in the vuelta???

I'm trying to follow on CN
but they’re timing lists seem very slow compared to the comments here.
FORZA KILLER!
They have to

Also watching 'infostradasports' in dutch
refreshes, but still somehow seems behind these comments.
You people are FAST!
FORZA KILLER!
Garzelli into top ten by end of day?
I think he will podium here with only Menchov and LL having a chance to knock him off.
LL going to catch Pelizotti?
before they switched I thought I saw a rider not too far in front of LL…
Uni commentator:
big man is comfortable on climbs, not good on descents ? ! ?
is actually opposite, right my friends ?
Cobbles guys
I suspect there’s a bravado gap btw guys like Maggie and the climber set?

has managed to get the praying landis going on with the clip ons.

a freudian slip?

Garzelli
looking awfully cool with that Girbecco logo. You might even say “powered by Girbecco”…

ouch rogers 1"14 down

Rogers
+1.14. If not here, where?

Sastre +1.04?
Not great, though typical.

Does Rogers have very big feet
or is do yellow booties do that to you?
or
“don’t open before October”

Is this really more aerodynamic
or does it just feel like you’re going faster.
Well, when you have an itch, you gotta scratch...
… even if you’re riding an ITT.
Respect the Shit List; it respects you.
Paolo Bettini
needs to have a sit down chat with Cunego and explain to him what type of racer he is.
oh boy
here we go:
Di Luca +46" to menchov. Hm…

DiLuca +46 on Menchov
beating Rogers. He is looking good. Very good actually.
so Levi gained more time on the descent into Levanto ?
increased his 25 secs up on DiLuca, by how much ??
Levi gained another 6 seconds on DiLuca...now -31 on the Maglia Rosa
Levi gained 3 seconds on Menchov on the downhill
Menchov was 46s ahead of DD
at second check and Levi was 15s behind DM
Times?
Please? Times?
(I’m starting to see visions. head is light. may need medical help soon.)
times?
FORZA KILLER!

OK . . .
Among GC men:
1. Menchov
2. Levi + 30
3. Di Luca +45
Everyone else is out of contention for GIRO overall

Split screen
If I were in charge, they’d have Basso and Pellizotti in there. The battle for Amadio’s affections!
Universal guy: “ITalians cheering on their champion.” Basso? Champion of wha?
Abruzziamo!
by Chris Fontecchio on May 21, 2009 10:49 AM EDT reply actions
Champion of being a cutie-pie?
Can’t think of anythin’ else…
Respect the Shit List; it respects you.
Well
Armstrong llega a línea de meta con un tiempo de 1’36’ 55’’. El americano sigue recuperando sensaciones y se queda a más de un minuto del tiempo de Garzelli.
Armstrong to the line with a 1’36’55 time, seems to be regaining the old feeling but is still a minute behind Garzelli’s time
Sastre under a minute
He’s not out of this race by any means.
Abruzziamo!
by Chris Fontecchio on May 21, 2009 10:50 AM EDT reply actions
He's losing more time to rivals . . . he'll have to win a stage by 3 mins to win Giro

Yup Sastre limiting
he is not out of things by any means
I'm torn...
I’d love to see another American Giro winner, but it would be sweet to see Di Luca hold on after all he has done this week…
however…I can’t stand the Russian.
couldn't agree less
: )
Ô col Bayard, Ô Tourmalet, à côté du Galibier, vous êtes de la pale et vulgaire bibine !
Virtual GC Standings
After Second Cehck…
DiLuca -
Menchov +34
Levi +1.09
PLEASE SWITCH TO FINAL LIVE THREAD
That name may be a tad hopeful, but switch anyway.

Good ride but not enough
Probably need to pick up another 20 seconds on that one.
