Giro D'Italia

Pretty interesting day in the Giro today. It was a crazy 60km TT with tons of turns and lots of elevation change. I think everyone I saw had clip-ons on some sort of road/TT hybrid. Menchov ended up winning the stage, which was quite surprising. His form looked crazy good and I don't think he had anything left when he got to the line. He left absolutely everything on the course.

Di Luca lost a bunch of time and is now out of the jersey in 2nd. He kinda bugs me, although I'm not really sure why. Levi had a good ride and is in 3rd.

The top 3 are separated by 40 seconds and then the next gap is 2 minutes. This should set up nicely for some attacks and breaks in the remaining mountain stages.

The plot thickens....
