I pounded out a satisfying hour on the trainer again last night. My
form was better than the plodding two hours on Tuesday. I'm happy with
the workout.

Gilberto Simoni is usually good for a
quote or two. He isn't quite as boasting about making things tough for
Armstrong in the Tour... and then finishing about 50th. Still, these are his thoughts about the upcoming Giro
Last year, he was beaten by an impressive Danilo Di Luca, but this year he figures 'The Killer' will not be up to his usual self. "The combination of Di Luca and [Paolo] Savoldelli at the new Team LPR will be important, but one of the two has to understand that they will lose the Giro. Di Luca has won this last summer, but he was always suffering. It is difficult to repeat these levels, difficult to always go so well.Cunego? He is always the same, not such a factor."


Two thoughts:
1) Savoldelli was lucky to win one Giro, much less the second.
2) DiLuca suffered? He pretty much cleaned everyone's clock. If he was suffering, what were you doing?
3) Gilberto still doesn't seem to made friends with Cunego.
