Tonight hasn't happened yet.. how do you know?

Talk about mental drain though. Tapping along nicely. Turn left on to a wall with a big fuck off warning sign telling you 30%.

I hate those signs on icon climbs. Telling you the next 1 KM is ave 8.6% etc.. Really saps my will..

But what is nice, it says the altitude as well.

Eurosport schedule you div

Milk Race on 25% Devils Staircase in 80's when the lowest gear available was a 42/21.

…

They are all like hippy, eating straight after the climb?

42/21, 25%

forty two-twenty one up a twenty five percenter.

legs like fucking tank pistons, the lot of them.

You all heard about Taylor Phinney yesterday?

True Grit.

Yeah http://velonews.competitor.com/2013/03/news/acquarone-tirreno-stage-6-went-too-far_277610

Guess the cycle-mechanics screwed up and forgot to fit compact cassette and chain set.

2 pages back - keep up man! ;-)

@ Brave - that's the clip with the camera placement incident, isn't it?

@ über-grüber - 42/21, big fucking deal. You'll notice most of them aren't completely emaciated, as if the current vogue, so they actually have enough strength to do more than click a gear shifter.

So.. Who won today??

Unless it's on the Tivo it doesn't exist...

I think we're all winners.

Better than before the climb. #vom

True Grit.

Just because he finished a day's work. Pfft.

;)

So.. Who won today??

Tony Martin bossed it. Cancellara also in the mix. Froome took 11 seconds out of Nibali. Full results on http://www.steephill.tv/tirreno-adriatico/#spoiler

9.2km on the flat? I shouldn't think there has ever been such a contrast between two consecutive stages.

Good time from A. Dowsett.

Yeah.. YEAH!

Good time from A. Dowsett.

Greipel. DFL..

How'd Greipel get through yesterday but Taylor struggled?

Don't get that.

Cadel's not.
