Notso Swift

Go Ryder! Was climbing easily (OK able to react to Pozzovino surge best)
Fell asleep with 10 to Go – surprised Scarponi made it back
It is a cracking race

  scarponi may only have fallen off due to cramp and knew he could get back on coming down the descent. will be interesting to see if he can pull something on the stelvio. hesjedal is looking good too.

Nice to see Jacky bobby finishing at the back and making the time cut – how is he feeling about his first grand tour?

  Maybe it’s like my tipping comp at work and there is money for the wooden spoon.
  
  You’d imagine he’s treating it like a training camp for the Olympics.

Yesterday was the anniversary of Xavier Tondo’s death. As I read from a spanish paper, what Purito said to Basso was that he was sorry but he had to win the stage in his friend memory.

My god I love the scenery.

Basso looking strong after not so convicing earlier season.

Agree with earlier comments regarding the scenic backdrop – the Dolomiti are a visually spectacular arena for a bike race. I stayed up to watch most of the coverage on SBS last night, and some of the cut-away sequences to the helicopter camera gave me vertigo!

I heart Italy.
Blowing off the TDF/Etape for Giro next time.
