The peloton must have let up. No way does he catch back on without cooperation.

Re: Your 2012 Cycling Thread
I don't think much if any he didn't lose a whole lot of time, I don't think he ever fell out of the caravan and he had about 6K to go. I doubt all the teams gearing up for the sprint were going to wait for him.
Big pile up today with Roberto Ferrari going off his line and wiping out Cav at the finish.

Actually, his leadout man Favilli.
I thought Phinney was ok? He did get into the ambulance, but as Universal Sport showed, and Cyclingnews reported, he started feeling better while in there, and actually got out and up onto the podium towards the end of the ceremonies. And ther news today says he only needed a couple stitches, has no broken bones, and they're talking as if he's going to continue.

I think Phinney is fine, well as fine as one can be when he crashes at 75 KpH. My prediction is that Garmin beats BMC by more than 13 sec and that put Rasmussen into pink following the TTT.
And good point about Favilli, I just saw the Farnese Vini guys scattering and the hope over Cav, didn't see the numbers well enough.

Before Universal's main coverage with Schlanger and Gogo starts, and sometimes after they sign off, you get Kirby and Lloyd providing commentary for their "Exclusive Web coverage". Wish they'd do the entire program.
And there's a Farmese-Vini jersey in my future at some point.Gotta rock that Italian style.

I am doing pretty well in the overall so hopefully my team will pick up some ground though I should have taken Rodriqez over frank Schleck.
Great attempt by the anti-Levi Chris Horner to shake up the TOC yesterday with a big long attack. Can't believe that Vaughters let him go in a break with 3 teammates. of course it was naught in the end as despite hearing what a great climber Dave Z is he faded in the final Km and Geesink takes the win.

If so, I hope he picked Peter Sagan.
Stupid me, I picked Rui Acosta, who it turns out wasn't even on the Moviestar Giro squad. But I wasn't the only one.
Yep. I'm sure glad I picked this guy.

Sadly I then got smart and dumped him.
Where's Brianvf? Must be doing the Tour of California fantasy game. Hope to see you in France!
If so, I hope he picked Peter Sagan.

Lol. I was wondering why Costa wasn't doing anything for me!
