Contabore again 
This was boring to you?
Contabore attacking on the final climb leaving everyone and so winning this giro in the most boring fashion. Yeah...
Nibali.. nope, loved his riding today.
But you must love his climbing style,i must admit i do
I admire his climbing abilities (despite the dope), but I'd rather see riders fighting against each other (like this https://3.bp.blogs...+puy.jpg), not just one rider attacking and that's it for the rest of the stage.
I sorta liked last years Giro.
x2
last year was a legendary Giro. This year it would probably be as well if Contador wasn't peaking here. Anyway the Giro is always awesome.
btw portuguese comentators have been crazy about Anton's position in the stage since the penultimate climb. "Is he ahead of Contador omg wtf?" wake up dumbasses

Fun fact mentioned by the Danish commentators (= if it's wrong, it's not my fault ): Until this year, Euskaltel had never won the a stage in the Giro. And they've been around for 16-17 years...
Mentioned by the British Eurosport guys too 
Pretty impressive achievement topping a good Euskatel weekend.

That's hardly his fault. As it wasn't Gilbert's fault his domination in the Ardennes.
That is great point,was Gilbert boring?
Go Roman!
