Default What if ...

Voeckler reveals himself as being a new Chiappucci? Maybe
he won't be as dumb as to waste 5 minutes in a mid-
mountain stage ...

One of the few thing in which I think the Giro is
superior to the Tour is the fact that in Italy they don't
let these "trashcan" breakaways arrive with 15' of margin
over the peloton.

You mean in the Giro nobody considers such attacks in the
first place. All digesting the pre-race capuccinos.
