Two days before the time trial which Could prove a decisive moment in the 101st Giro d'Italia, Simon Yates took his third stage victory of the race at the Sappada ski resort on Sunday , extending his overall lead over the defending champion, Tom Dumoulin, beyond the two-minute barrier. It was a massive step towards what could be a first British win in the Giro while the race favourite, Chris Froome, flopped badly  http://www.philadelphiaeagles.us.com/WOMENS-TIMMY-JERNIGAN-JERSEY.html following his stage victory on Saturday, with the overall win slipping further out of reach.  With two short sharp climbs in the final kilometres and a further ascent to the finish, this stage finish favoured Yates's punchy, attacking style more than the relentlessly steep slopes of Saturday's finish on Monte Zoncolan. He made two incisive attacks in rapid succession at the foot of the penultimate ascent, Costalissoio; the first pulled an elite group of half a dozen clear of the remnants of the lead peloton and the second took him clear for Nick Boyle Authentic Jersey good. "It was a bit of instinct," Yates said, and it was a similar move to attacks that gave him stage wins at the Vuelta a España in 2016 and Paris-Nice the http://www.officialmavericksproshop.com/authentic-41-dirk-nowitzki-jersey.html following year. "When we came off the descent I saw there was a little gap to a few guys, so I asked Jack [Haig] to push up the pace, then George [Bennett] attacked. It was really hard from the bottom of the climb but I felt good, so I chose the moment to go. I'm a bit emotional because I gave it everything the second time to get away and it worked. I think it was the hardest 15 kilometres of my life." Yates decided to press on immediately after the rapid, chilly descent from the Passo di Sant'Antonio, which led straight up on to Costalissoio without giving the riders a pause to gather breath or stretch the legs. Froome was already floundering a little way behind as Yates's team-mate Haig increased the pace, prompting the New Zealander Bennett to make a brief, unsuccessful attack. When the pink jersey had flown, Dumoulin was left in the company of four other contenders for the podium: Domenico Pozzovivo, Miguel Ángel López, Richard Carapaz and Thibaut Pinot. Only the Frenchman Pinot was willing to collaborate consistently with the Dutchman Dumoulin, who could be seen gesticulating at the quartet in an attempt to make them cooperate. Dumoulin was briefly dislodged by his four companions on the final ascent to the ski resort but regained contact when they began marking each other with their minds on the time bonuses awarded for second and third places behind Yates, whose stage victory looked assured from the moment he went past the five kilometres to go mark with 51sec in hand. The Dutchman ended the stage third, just behind López, but his loss of 47sec to Yates, including bonuses, extended his deficit to 2min 11sec. As for Froome, Yates had failed to overhaul the Team Sky leader in the final kilometres up Monte Zoncolan the previous day but 24 hours Ryan Quigley Authentic Jersey later Froome looked as if he had not recovered from that monumental stage-winning effort. At the finish the four times Tour de France winner had dropped from fifth overall to seventh but he is now 4min 52sec behind Yates, suggesting even a place on the podium may be out of reach. There are only six contenders for the podium in Rome on Sunday – seven counting Froome – and Yates's stage victory puts him on a par with Eddy Merckx and the Italian Gilberto Simoni, the only others to have taken three stage wins while wearing the pink jersey. Those are not the key statistics for the Bury cyclist entering the final week, however. wholesale jerseys cheap nfl jerseys cheap nfl jerseys cheap jerseys free shipping |
