Go Cadel

Wasn't it great to see Cadel take his stage win the other night. The finish suited him perfectly, he had a similar win in last years Giro. Even after sitting on his wheel Contador didn't have enough to pass him on the line, close though.
It's early days yet and Contador or one of the Schlecks may show their hand tonight or when the mountains get really serious on stage 12, in the past the Spaniard had the potential to make up his lost time on a stage such as 12.
Cadel looks like a new man, he even smiles these days. He looks to have a good team around him, though the mountains is where we will see what they (and he) are made of. I was particularly impressed by their team time trial, very disciplined and a strong ride. I have my fingers crossed.
There is a ride planned for Sunday morning, 9am in Lancefield. Let me know if you can make it.
