Shortish stage, but a 'rollercoaster' of a stage, should be great viewing.
Nice tough finish aswell. I would like to see Deignan or Pinotti (or both) get into a break,
Scarponi is on home ground, will he be agressive !!

Predictions: what say ye ??!!

This is the break aways chance today. I can't see Contador team doing much today with whats to follow. You could pick up to 30 guys that could get into one. I'll go with Di Lucia, Machado and Bakalents.

That's one lumpy looking stage!

Mr "Feck off Nico you can't have my wheel" wins todays stage

If Nico has moved on then perhaps we should too.

Riding very well it has to be said. Wasnt afraid to attack others going up Etna even though it meant he ultimately lost a bit of time. If only he could TT

But sure where's the fun in that? :P

Seriously though, that was a great burst to the line by Gadret!

I was shouting for him today (& Rodriguez 'the bridesmaid' aswell), they're both in my fantasy team !!

Cycling: Roche leaves spat in past to hail Gadret's Giro stage win

http://www.independent.ie/sport/other-sports/cycling-roche-leaves-spat-in-past-to-hail-gadrets-giro-stage-win-2651440.html

Not riding the Giro, Roche watched the finish from his training camp in Montgenevre and said: "It was a great win and I was excited to see him put his hands in the air. It's great for the team. Yes, he f'***d me up at the Tour, but I said what I had to say at the time. I am very happy for him today."

Anyone know if Gadret is riding in the Tour this year?
