Stage 16 - Garzelli shows cajones on Plan de Corones


Dr. Chan was hoping for something special from Stefano Garzelli today and he's evidently been using his Evil Powers, as the winner of the mountain TT was none other than, Stefano Garzelli.


Cadel Evans was the next quickest and managed to put a little time into rival Ivan Basso. There's not much else to say, everyone tried to cycle up a big hill as fast as they could.


I was pleased to see young Dan Martin scrape in the top 20. He looked strong going up, but the last km seemed to take forever for the poor lad. I don't think his ride will earn me any points, but at least he's still in the race.


Someone who's not in the race now, is Harrisons Pharma's, Leonardo Bertagnolli, who didn't start after the rest day. So now everyone in the league has lost a rider and the league championship could still go to anyone. There's been an unusually fast Velogames scoring update, so let's have a look shall we?


And those scores for today's stage? 


What's on for tomorrow? Why Stage 17 of course. And a hard day in the saddle it's sure to be. That big mountain in the middle should split it up nicely before the uphill finish.
