THE BIG HITTERS GET READY FOR THE GIRO

The race favorites spoke about their Giro goals ; clearly the Italians will try to do anything to win , some of the favorite Italians talked about their chance . Like Damiano Cunego ( who won the race in 2004) said that he would really like to win his home race again, but with his lack of climbing abilities he might not have a chance, his hopes to repeat the 2004 are slim . Old timers like Simoni and Garzelli also talked about their hopes for this year giro , both of then would like to win as well but their lack of a good team will not help and in the team time trail the race might be over .To tell the truth the only one with any chance is last year 5th place Ivan Basso , (who won the race in 2006) said that he is back in the shape he wanted to be last years ,so he's hopes for this year are pretty high . The other race favorites like Cadel Evans , spoke about their chance , but being realistic, said that they will take the race day by day . In the end we hope to see a great show and a bunch of fireworks on the mountain stages .

THE GIRO IS A GIRO AWAY!!!!!

The Giro is less than a week away , and all the teams are ready , well kind of ready for some . Couple days ago the cycling community found out, that Franco Pelizzotti is not going to be able to race this year edition ; the reason is that his biological passport is inconclusive . What that exactly means? , I'm not sure , but it will not let Franco race , and that is a problem Franco was the best hope for Liquigas to win the race , Now the team had to call other Italian star Vicenso Nibali , who claimed that he can fit the spot that his team mate left behind.
We hope that all that is just a misunderstood, and Franco can go ahead on the tour , where last year he got the polka dot jersey .

EVANS & GILBERT CAN WIN CLASSICS JUST LIKE FABIAN

After Fabian Cancellara storm the early spring classics , winning three of the at the row ; other famous names are starting to shine. For example Phillipe Gilbert , who won the very prestigious Amstel Gold Race , with a great sprint to the finish , after the group caught the brakeaway , couple riders tried to go , but not of them had what it takes , with a few hundred yards to go, a rider went clear , and the only one that follow was Gilbert , soon after Gilbert saw that he was the only one to do so, he just sprint to the finish . follow by Enrico Gaspparato from Astana and the surprise Ryder Hesjedal from Garmin .
The second name to shine on the north , was Cadel Evans , who won the Fleche Wallone ; After the group caught the guys at front in the huy climb , Igor Anthon went on the attack follow by country man Alberto Contador , the two open a clear gap , everybody thought that the race was over , but Evans responded in the hardest part of the climb ,even though Contador made a final attack, he ran out of steam with a few yards to go, and got pass by Evans and Rodrigez ,so he had to please his self with taking third place . Some great races still to come , lest hope that they are just as exciting as the ones we had witness .

FABIAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today we saw one of the best races ever , what a show by those two power houses , Tom Boonen and the champion Fabian Cancellara , Like Boonen said " i mean he is the world champ , if he has the gap on you is over , he was going 55 kph there is no way i can match that . To me thats the words of another great champion after being defeat by a better rider , fabian made his first move on the mollenberg but Boonen hang on to it , after that almost everybody saw that Boonen was on the red zone , he was having problems with his breathing and his face just said it all , right after the Kapelmuur started Fabian made his second move and that was it in less that a k he got a 20 sec over Boonen ,and the gap just grew every k ,all the way until the finish where like last week he solo and salute all the fans . After all that being said the only thing i have let to say is what a race , next week Boonen better go fo all the marbles .

PIPO POZZATO IS OUT OF FLANDERS !!!!!!

Today was announced that the Italian champ Fillipo Pozzato is not going to race on this year tour the Flanders , afetr getting a cold last week on the E3 Prijs , he thought that the cold was just something of couple days , but last night it got even worse, now he has to go back to Italy for a two weeks recovery to hope get ready for Paris Roubaix , which is the biggest one day classic . Well we hope that Pipo gets better ,so he can give us a great show .

BIG FABIAN TAKES ONE FOR THE AGES !!!!!!!

That was the final words of the narrator of this year ES Prijs Vlaanderen - Harenbelke . After an amazing victory over Marco Antonio Flecha and Tom Boonen , fabian seems to be in o great shape for next tour de flanders , right after tornado Tom put the hammer down in one of the most steep hilsl on the race; just Flecha and Fabian could hang on , a three man brake way that made it all the way . Italian national champ Fillipo Pozato tried to bridge back to them , as soon as they saw him they lifted the pace even harder so he could not bridge to them , with k in a half left to go fabian attack his companions and drop them , at first look seem like a simple attack , but not at all, he attack right before a really technical corner where he new that Tom had to brake , and so he did that open a big enough gap for him to celebrate a solo win all the to the
finish line , with Boonen taking second and Flecha third .
