Giro - Stage 20
What do I do now?
Out for a ride at 6.00am very unlikely to be back before the transfer deadline. Take a chance, use my transfers and hope it takes place and lose the opportunity to use all those lovely transfers for the sprint, or leave my team as it is and hope that it's cancelled again. It would be nice if I could make the transfers and know that I would get them back if it were cancelled.

Yup. Apparently average speeds are around 11 - 13 mph in inner London, about 20mph in outer London.

2nd today! So close! Leading 3 Italians though.
Probably beaten by someone with the 3 leading Colombians!!
No. I had those but could have done with Atapuma as well. Evans and Trofimov beat Scarponi and Pirazzi. The rest the same.
If you had Duarte you DESERVE the stage!!
With so many people playing it's hard to win a stage now. I wouldn't have had Pirazzi if I'd waited but I don't know who I really would have had. Not bothered about winning a pump as I've got plenty of those but it's always nice to actually win a stage in any case. Got three badges for stage podiums but they're all 2nd and 3rds, no wins yet!!
Bring on the TdF, won a stage in that the last 2 years, perhaps I'll get lucky again but it'll take an exceptional choice to win a stage in the most popular race of the year which will have the best prizes for it, I hope
(hint, hint Dave!)
12346 10 12 13 and Pirazzi. Not a stage win but should be close I reckon and should be green arrows. Pirazzi probably got more points than Santa so good thing I didn't wate a transfer. Pity we didn't have the stage yesterday as well. I always do best in the mountains.
Canola finished in 116th.
Get in there!!! 1,2,3,4,6,7,10 gives me at least 231 points today (best ever for me) even with Sammy and Santa letting me down....
and I've beaten my best 21-stage tour score with one stage to go!
Oops
1,3,4,10,12,14 for me plus pirazzi and majka so nearly a full house, dont think mezgec got anything today.
14 for me as well, but not 12. Majka was 10th - you've counted him twice?
1,2,3,4,6,10 - just like lots of others I bet.
Not for me, to be honest I didn't pay much attention as been rather busy since thursday
Nibali
Duarte Yes!
Uran
Betancur
Aru
Pellizotti
12346 stage 123 Podium, should be a full house and 180 I think!
I would have had Santa instead of Pirazzi if I hadn't done my transfers too early!
Try and pinch 2nd Duarte!
Poor stage for me not good
My team very similar to others. Wouldn't have had Pirazzi but he's trying for sure!
Nibali
Uran
Scarponi
Majka
Betancur
Niemic
Pirazzi
Duarte
Pellizotti

Leads at 8mins approx with Euskaltel on the front pushing things along. Obviously looking for Sammy win today.
Fine now thanks
Having made changes after the ITT, I've left my team like this and will have 5 transfers for tomorrow.
Cadel Evans
Stefano Pirazzi
Vicenzo Nibali
Benat Intxausti
Przemyslaw Niemiec
Rafal Majka
Carlos Alberto Betancur
Luka Mezgec
Robinson Eduardo Chalapud
Can I first take the time to say 'Chapeau' to Philip Unwin who has kept us up to date with tickers etc throughout the Giro......It's been good to get updates when at work without access to certain sites.
Then my team:
Nibali
Uran
Pellizotti
Garzelli
Intxausti
Niemiec
Majka
Betancur
Pirazzi
So an Intxausti win would be great for me.
Well said and couldn't agree more
Thanks for the thanks. Was laid off for two weeks. Perfect for the Giro, not so good for the bank account. It was quite good fun following tickers in four languages seeing who was first with the info.
Cheers

I have no Evans, we shall see...

Majka
Betancur
Scarponi
Uran m'lud?
Pellizotti
Santambroggy
4 transfers for tomorrow of course, so should have 5 sprinters plus 4 guys with GC points, to round it all off nicely. As with most of us, should be a high-scoring last couple of days...
Lead 5.20
