The Gavia Pass is close because of snow. The new Cima Coppi will be Passo Manghen.

And Nibali is catching up and also Yates that I thought was to give up.
It's when you come to Verona the Maglia Rosa really counts:)

btw,
Today the Giro went to Courmayeur with some serious climbs. No climbing on the Monte Bianco though:)
However it's also now Mount Everest season and many people are queing to get to the top...

Nice to see our Swedish contender Tobias Ludvigsson finish at 12th place today.
He was involved in the same crash on stage 4 as Tom Dumoulin who had to leave the Giro and Tobias lost much time in the GC then.

Speaking of Fausto Coppi.
There are still lot of snow at the Passo Gavia with Cima Coppi, the highest point on the Giro next on Tuesday...
http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/authorities-working-to-clear-gavia-of-snow-ahead-of-giro-ditalia-queen-stage/

Local authorities are working against the clock to ensure that the Passo Gavia is open for business for the Giro d’Italia’s queen stage next Tuesday. Having seen heavy snowfall, the Gavia has been a concern for some weeks, and race organisers stated on Tuesday that there's a 60 per cent chance the roads can be cleared ahead of stage 16 from Lovere to Ponte di Legno.
At present, the race’s biggest climb is currently buried under snow, four metres at some points

The monument in honor of the Campionissimo Fausto Coppi .

The Maglia Rosa earns 2000 euros/day but he must endure the blood tests, give a press conference and he can join his teammates at dinner after one hour and a half, so Roglic dismissed it. He is sure to regain it later.

---

Suddenly Roglic, Yates and Nibali are more than 5 minutes behind in the GC.
Well, 15 more stages to go and the big mountains yet to come.

Giro Cassino-San Giovanni Rotondo
1 Fausto Masnada
Valerio Conti wears the Maglia Rosa, that Roglic wanted to dismiss to avoid the ceremones after the finish. He also fell once.

Giro Frascati-Terracina
1 Pascal Ackermann
Rainy day. Thpmas Dumoulin has retired after a few km, with a wounded knee. Bury my heart at Woounded Knee.

I can see Eurosport on the TI M decoder, i euro/month. But first I have to disconnect the Sky decoder, which I am trying to do (28 euro/month). It is easy to make a contract, difficult to end it. It's the third time I send a raccomandata (registered letter). Let us hope they read it. Sorry for Dumoulin, a nice guy.

I think you mean that RAI ignore ice hockey.
But Eurosport doesn't. But you have to pay an extra fee to watch that channel...
It's about the same here that SVT doesn't show any cycling at all unless it's the Olympics...
I can only only see the recaps:(
From today stage 4 Orbetello - Frascati.
