Astana’s Roman Kreuziger climbed to victory in an epic stage 19 at the
2012 Giro d’Italia, coming home 19 seconds clear of Garmin-Barracuda’s
Ryder Hesjedal and going some way towards restoring his reputation
after a race that hasn’t gone to plan over the last three weeks.

Garmin-Barracuda's Ryder Hesjedal lies in second place in the overall
GC after 18 stage of the 2012 Giro d'Italia and is just 30 seconds
behind the pink jersey holder Joaquim Rodriguez (Katusha). The
Canadian's superb form and set-your-watch consistency has been one of
the big talking points of the race so far and has surprised all but his
most ardent fans and those in his inner circle.

A dramatic finish to stage 18 of the 2012 Giro d'Italia produced a
moment that has become all too rare in the sport of road cycling over
the last few years - a defeat for Mark Cavendish in bunched sprint to
the line when he has been set up perfectly by his team. The Team Sky
rider was beaten into second place and denied a fourth stage win in the
race by an astonishing display from Farnese Vini-Selle Italia's Andrea
Guardini.

The first Tour de France, held in 1903, was considered an absolute
success. It changed the fortunes of the newspaper that sponsored the
event, l’Auto, and united France in following what was arguably the
greatest sporting spectacle of the age. The following years didn’t go
as smoothly.

RadioShack-Nissan team principal Johan Bruyneel has used his regular
Telesport column to slam what he sees as his team's poor overall form
in 2012 and warned his star riders that complacency won't be tolerated
ahead of the Tour de France in a month's time. And despite insisting
earlier this week that he understood Frank Schleck's reasons for
withdrawing from the Giro d'Italia last weekend, Bruyneel couldn't
resist having another veiled dig at the man from Luxembourg.

"We’d long heard rumblings of a new 11-speed mountain bike group coming
from SRAM. We expected it to be an updated XX with a wider range that
more closely replicated a conventional triple. Instead, SRAM have
developed a progressive, dedicated, single-ring 11-speed group called
XX1. The company hope it will change mainstream thinking in terms of
mountain bike drivetrains."

Louis Garneau brought their flagship Carbon Pro Team shoes to the
market this past winter. The Carbon Pro Team, like most shoes with
“Pro” in the name, sports a high modulus carbon sole and a ratcheting
buckle. You can find the Carbon Pro Teams being worn by Europcar,
though after some investigation we found that Thomas Voekler opts for
LG’s lightest weight Carbon X-Lites that lack a ratcheting buckle in
favor of a third Velcro strap.

CyclingTips:
It’s one thing preparing your nutrition plan for a single day race.
It’s tougher for a week-long stage race. But nutrition for the grand
tours is something else. Optimising performance and recovery, and
maintaining a healthy gut and immune system whilst constantly on the
move for three weeks is a massive logistical challenge for teams and
their support staff.
