ever attacking Stefano
Pirazzi finally secured the win his aggressive
style had promised from the breakaway on stage 17 of the Giro d’Italia.

secure Bardiani’s third stage win of the race so far. (cyclingnews.com)
May 28, 2014 Stefano Pirazzi was
in tears as he rode to the podium area after winning stage 17 of the

May 28, 2014 The
Canadian went clear of the pink jersey group and joined up with Nairo Quintana, Pierre Rolland and

May 28, 2014 "With
three climbers left in this Giro, it was pretty obvious that myself Dario Cataldo and Sebastian Henao

May 28, 2014 It's
extremely lightweight at less than 90g, claimed waterproof to a depth
of 10m, and it seems sturdily built, plus the included mount is
compatible with nearly all GoPro accessories.

May 28, 2014 "He
was screaming like I've never heard anyone scream before.
I could see
the extent of the injuries rather gruesomely, and I knew he needed
somebody to be there..." (cyclingnews.com)
May 28, 2014 "Quintana’s quiet
demeanor seems the polar opposite to Hinault’s outsized
personality, but on Thursday morning in Sarnonico, he displayed one of
the Badger’s defining characteristics – defiance. (cyclingnews.com)
May 28, 2014 "If
you didn’t get to watch it, do whatever you can to lay your hands on a
copy because that would have to be a modern day Giro classic. Quite
frankly, the tour de france has nothing on this."

May 28, 2014 In
the closing kilometers of the the opening stage of the Baloise Belgium

May 28, 2014 A
breakaway requires an otherwise unlikely cooperation between opponents.
Without it, a breakaway would never happen. Even more interesting than
the cooperation in a breakaway, however, are the cooperative agreements
or verbal contracts
we often form with non-teammates. (velonews.com)

from the team managers on the Giro d’Italia following their sometimes

May 28, 2014 He
may have had the night to sleep on it but Patrick Lefevere’s
anger at the events that transpired on stage 16 of the Giro d’Italia
show no sign of dissipating, with the Omega Pharma-QuickStep boss

Vegni to "go home" and resign after Rigoberto Urán lost

Quintana. (cyclingnews.com)
May 28, 2014 Cold

balancing act. (pezcyclingnews.com)

May 28, 2014 "Enduro racing has
sure taken mountain biking by storm in the last couple of years. While
the concept seems cool, I have to admit to being pretty grumpy about
the whole thing. We've all heard the line that goes something like,
'Enduro: it's what we used to call mountain
biking.'" (cyclingnews.com)

late, I’ve been obsessing over the question of just how to deliver the
bottom line here or there to make at least a few decisions simpler, and

questions riders struggle with. What follows is a bullet-point list of truths
I’ve found. These are recommendations that don’t come back to haunt
