Giro d'Italia 2009 - 12 Stage: Individual time trial

Honestly, at this stage were only all excited to see how to beat Lance Armstrong would. Once he was in the past few days every now and then has to be proud of the climbs, but the expectations were increased. And given his broken leg, the key just under two and a half minutes behind but damn strong. At the top of Menchov and Leipheimer ensured that over the next few days will be really exciting yet - nice!

I'm really amazed by Michael Rogers on the other hand, I had hoped for more from him after he was in third place. I would have granted him, if he had now taken over the pink jersey.
