Giro d'Italia 2013, 4th-26th May - [Spoilers]

Hmmm this is going to be slow stuff. I could go out on the bike but i've not been off it in a week and i should rest. Then theres the weather - the faintest drizzle but warm. I can actually see the little b*starding midges at my window!!!! Devil creatures!!

If they were properly dressed in duffle coats, balaclavas and mittens then they'd be fine. They sound like those teenagers you see in just shirts when it's snowing...

Some of the riders aren't even wearing gloves! No wonder they are cold.

It's all extra protein. Marginal gains

Just switched to the coverage now (I'd been watching the MotoGP) and I didn't realise these guys had a skiing holiday planned. They'll be wrapping up and taking the descent carefully, I'll bet.

So what is the score, are they racing or not then?

Sounds as if a few of them are racing now. Weening, being pursued by Rabottini, Pirazzi, Chalapud, Borghini and Visconti.

Anyone got a decent live video feed, none of the ones I can find are working!!

Yes they are, Nibali group is just over 3 minutes behind the leader, 65km to go

I've been out ... so the guys who broke off from the main group, did the rest of the group know this was happening?

Commentators seemed to think so, though they did think they would pull up and wait after they reached the top of the climb

I am vegetarian.

The lead group are currently racing a train...

I bet the water in the river is a bit bracing.
