January 1 - May 29, Alpago, Italy, Road - WorldTour
Hello and welcome to our live coverage from stage 14 of the Giro d'Italia.

Today is the Queen stage of the Giro d'Italia with six climbs in total. A historic, barbaric expedition through the Monti Pallidi, the Pale Mountains, that most have dubbed the "Queen Stage" or "Tappa Regina". Putting riders in early breaks could be key for the overall contenders, as will the Giau – a worthy rival to the Fedaia for the honour of hardest climb in the Dolomites.
We're at the start this morning in Alpago and the riders are busily signing on ahead of the stage. They'll roll out in just over 20 minutes from now.
A quick look at the overall and Amador is in pink after yesterday's heroics. It could be a short stint for the Movistar man, given that he struggled somewhat on the final two climbs of the stage.
1 Andrey Amador (CRc) Movistar Team 54:05:50
2 Bob Jungels (Lux) Etixx - Quick-Step 0:00:26
3 Vincenzo Nibali (Ita) Astana Pro Team 0:00:41
4 Alejandro Valverde (Spa) Movistar Team 0:00:43
5 Steven Kruijswijk (Ned) Team LottoNl-Jumbo
6 Rafal Majka (Pol) Tinkoff Team 0:01:37
7 Ilnur Zakarin (Rus) Team Katusha 0:02:01
8 Esteban Chaves (Col) Orica-GreenEdge 0:02:19
9 Rigoberto Uran (Col) Cannondale Pro Cycling 0:02:48
10 Jakob Fuglsang (Den) Astana Pro Team 0:03:15
That's today's profile of the stage, just to give you an idea of what's in store. It's a relatively flat start but then the road gently starts to climb, all the way up to to the first summit of the Passo Pordoi at 2239m at 95km.
@giroditalia Sat, 21st May 2016 08:42:28
Riders signing on and Amador has lined up near the front of the peloton in his maglia rosa as we await the start of the stage. A hugely important day for the Costa Rican rider and his Movistar team as they face up to the challenge from Astana. There are so many battles in the GC.
Jungels near the front too, now in the white jersey after losing pink on stage 13. The Etixx rider has still had an excellent Giro d'Italia and in many ways the objective remains the same, he needs to follow the best and then ride at his own pace if he comes under pressure. He's already left his mark on the race though.
And we're about to roll out for today's Queen stage at this year's Giro d'Italia. Grey skies above but not bad conditions for this time of year.
@Cyclingnewsfeed Sat, 21st May 2016 08:54:06
Here be yesterday's top ten in the stage results. Team Sky reviving their Giro after losing Landa to illness. They've a few climbers in their ranks so chances are they'll be on the attack again. Unlike the Movistar and Astana climbers, they dont have to worry about dropping back and working for a leader.
1 Mikel Nieve (Spa) Team Sky 4:31:49
2 Giovanni Visconti (Ita) Movistar Team 0:00:43
3 Vincenzo Nibali (Ita) Astana Pro Team 0:01:17
4 Alejandro Valverde (Spa) Movistar Team
5 Rafal Majka (Pol) Tinkoff Team
6 Stefan Denifl (Aut) IAM Cycling
7 Steven Kruijswijk (Ned) Team LottoNl-Jumbo
8 Rigoberto Uran (Col) Cannondale Pro Cycling
9 Matteo Montaguti (Ita) AG2R La Mondiale
10 Domenico Pozzovivo (Ita) AG2R La Mondiale
Looking back to stage 13 and what it meant to the GC picture, CN's Barry Ryan takes a look at the overall contenders after yesterday's action. Click here.
The riders have now rolled out from the start and we're almost done with the neutralised zone. As soon as the flag drops we'll be off and racing for stage 14. We can expect attacks from the gun as teams try and send riders up the road.
And as predicted we have a number of attacks early on the from the peloton and like on stage 13 they come straight after the flag is dropped. Will Movistar look to control this from the start?
On stage 13 Movistar went on the front foot and sent five riders up the road. They have the maglia rosa now so one would think they would change tactics, although the maglia rosa is on Amador's shoulders and not Valverde's. Astana, will they look to make the race, or continue with their approach of making things tough in the second half of the stage. Nibali and Valverde, and their teams, are so evenly matched.
Astana have a few men near the front but they're just monitoring who tries to escape rather than setting the tone and pace for the stage. All together though after 7km of racing.
Lotto Soudal have tried to send a number of men up the road but nothing has stuck just yet. We've covered around 10km of racing, and it's all together at this point.
One rider who will be looking to break away is Damiano Cunego. He leads the the KOM competition but it will all change today with the six major climbs on the menu:
1 Damiano Cunego (Ita) Nippo - Vini Fantini 91 pts
2 Giovanni Visconti (Ita) Movistar Team 61
3 Stefan Denifl (Aut) IAM Cycling 54
4 Mikel Nieve (Spa) Team Sky 50
5 Giulio Ciccone (Ita) Bardiani CSF 27
6 Tim Wellens (Bel) Lotto Soudal 25
7 Matteo Montaguti (Ita) AG2R La Mondiale 20
8 Stefano Pirazzi (Ita) Bardiani CSF 18
9 Gianluca Brambilla (Ita) Etixx - Quick-Step 16
10 Alessandro Bisolti (Ita) Nippo - Vini Fantini 16
190km remaining from 210km
We've covered 20km of the stage now, and still no break from the peloton. Riders continue to try but things just aren't clicking and on each occasion the peloton react and bring everything back together.
Back to Cunego, Stephen Farrand, who has covered every Giro since the best ever Giro in 1994, spoke to Cunego last night.
"I've got a lot on my plate, with the jersey and trying to win a stage, it means a lot of hard racing but I'm enjoying it all. It's good to be back," he told Cyclingnews.
"I've kept the jersey but it's getting harder as we go more and more into the big mountain stages and other riders decide to go the climber's competition. The stage in the Dolomites is a big day, with lots of points up for grabs on the six climbs. I can perhaps lose the jersey but I'll keep fighting."
We're gently climbing now as we head through the first 25km of the stage. The peloton have eased off for a moment - remember yesterday was such a brutally tough affair.
Something will stick, it's only a matter of time but for now we've still not seen a break go clear. All together after 30km of racing.
@Lotto_Soudal Sat, 21st May 2016 09:50:28
Away from the Giro and Bradley Wiggins had some bad luck at the Tour of California. His bars broke in the TT. Read the story on what happened, right here.
At this rate we may have to wait until we're on the first climb of the Passo Pordoi before we see a break move clear. There are a number of opportunities to attack before that though.
Lotto Soudal continue to try and make things happen at the front of the peloton but so few teams can match their enthusiasm for a suicide break. It's almost as though they've all been racing for two weeks and are starting to feel tired.
170km remaining from 210km
A few splits starting to appear now in the peloton as some of the pressure from the likes of Lotto begins to have an affect. We're on a shallow rise at the moment, so it's a decent enough chance for riders to try and skip clear.
A reminder of the GC coming into today's key mountain stage:
1 Andrey Amador (CRc) Movistar Team 54:05:50
2 Bob Jungels (Lux) Etixx - Quick-Step 0:00:26
3 Vincenzo Nibali (Ita) Astana Pro Team 0:00:41
4 Alejandro Valverde (Spa) Movistar Team 0:00:43
5 Steven Kruijswijk (Ned) Team LottoNl-Jumbo
6 Rafal Majka (Pol) Tinkoff Team 0:01:37
7 Ilnur Zakarin (Rus) Team Katusha 0:02:01
8 Esteban Chaves (Col) Orica-GreenEdge 0:02:19
9 Rigoberto Uran (Col) Cannondale Pro Cycling 0:02:48
10 Jakob Fuglsang (Den) Astana Pro Team 0:03:15
165km remaining from 210km
We have a split in the field, with two large groups. They are roughly 25 seconds apart at the moment with Movistar having riders in both groups.
While we wait for the information on the riders in the front group, why not take a look at the action from yesterday's stage at the Tour of California. You can find our report, results, images, and video highlights, right here. Spoiler alert. It was a time trial.
Around 35 riders are in the front group, so an even bigger group than yesterday. The time gap is at 2'30, 50km covered. We'll bring you the names as soon as we have them.
Movistar it seems have defaulted to Etixx's position from stage 13, and started to set a steady pace at the front of the peloton. They have the gap at 3'30 now.
Ruben Plaza fans, are you sitting down? Your man has made it into the break today for Orica-GreenEdge.
FDJ have confirmed via Twitter that Demare has abandoned the race. No reason has been given at present but we're not aware of a fall. FDJ - so old school in many ways - on Twitter... cycling's equivalent to man landing on the moon.
Here's the complete composition of today's break:
Axel Domont, Hugo Houle (Ag2r La Mondiale), Andrey Zeits (Astana), Nicola Boem, Francesco Manuel Bongiorno, Sonny Colbrelli (Bardiani - CSF), Darwin Atapuma (BMC Racing), Moreno Moser, Nathan Brown (Cannondale), Kanstantsin Siutsou (Dimension Data), David De La Cruz, Matteo Trentin (Etixx-QuickStep), Sergey Firsanov (Gazprom-RusVelo), Stefan Denifl (IAM Cycling), Diego Ulissi, Valerio Conti, Sacha Modolo, Manuele Mori (Lampre-Merida), Tim Wellens, Pim Ligthart, Maxime Monfort (Lot Soudal), Carlos Betancu, José Herrada (Movistar), Damiano Cunego, Giacomo Berlato (NIPPO-Vini Fantini), Ruben Plaza (Orica GreenEDGE), Georg Preidler (Giant-Alpecin), Egor Silin, Rein Taaramae (Katusha), Twan Castelijns, Primoz Roglic (Lotto NL-Jumbo), Christian Knees, Nicolas Roche (Sky), Laurent Didier (Trek-Segafredo), Matteo Busato, Daniel Martinez (Wilier-Southeast).
Via http://www.cyclingpro.net/
That's a seriously powerful group of riders. Of course a few hangers on but you've got Moser, Trentin, Ulissi, Modolo, Wellens, Cunego, Betancur, Plaza, Roche and Taaramae all in there. That's a lot of firepower. If they can all work together.
@Etixx_QuickStep Sat, 21st May 2016 10:41:25
A few riders in the break for the second day running, Zeits one of them, so it looks like Astana will once again look to make the race in the second half as they did yesterday. Movistar still have a few riders up the road but they're not as aggressive as they were yesterday. The gap is over four minutes.
Cunego had made the cut though and will be looking to take the points. Visconti is there but Wellens is so the Italian is going to have to be on his guard. In reality and going by form in the race so far Cunego has to gobble up the points on the first three or four climbs. He will probably not be in contention once we get to the latter part of the stage.
Movistar continue to work at the front of the peloton. Ulissi is the best placed rider in GC in the move. He's at 5:18 behind Amador. This stage is perhaps too hard for him in terms of going for the win though...
@cyclingplus Sat, 21st May 2016 10:53:17
135km remaining from 210km
75km of the stage covered and the break, the huge break have 4'19 over the Movistar-controlled peloton. We've not even hit the first climb of the stage. That's coming up shortly.
A plan of containment for Movistar for now, who have the break at 4'18 and have held them there for some time.
The gap though has moved out, and it's at 4'50, with the 37 leaders building on their advantage.
We're about to start the first climb of the day, so we've around 120km of the stage remaining. Ulissi the best placed rider in the move is 5'18 off Amador's pink jersey.
Advantage Nibali? He has all of his team, bar the one rider in the break, sat behind the Movistar train. The Spanish team have been forced to do all the work in the stage so far while the 2013 winner and his squad can have a back seat.
And we're now on the Pordoi with Cunego sitting second wheel as his teammate Berlato sets the pace. The sun is out, there's a gentle breeze and we've 123km of racing remaining. The break have 5'33 over the peloton, so Ulissi is now the virtual leader on the road.
The gap is only increasing, it's over six minutes as the break push on. Berlato is going to lead us all the way up this climb. That will be the plan anyway.
@Etixx_QuickStep Sat, 21st May 2016 11:23:51
The peloton hit the climb too, with Tinkoff also near the front and looking after Majka. In the break is Denifl and he's Cunego's closest rival in the KOM competition.
1 Damiano Cunego (Ita) Nippo - Vini Fantini 91 pts
2 Giovanni Visconti (Ita) Movistar Team 61
3 Stefan Denifl (Aut) IAM Cycling 54
119km remaining from 210km
Niemiec (Lampre Merida), once a GC rider in the Giro, has abandoned the race.
Siutsou is in the break for Dimension Data. Whisper it but they've not won a race since Brian Smith was shown the door. It's been 20 days.
And Denifl has attacked and Cunego has matched him. The break have strung out as a result. The IAM rider sits up as there's still a long way to go on the climb.
Cunego keeps Denifl at the front of the group for as long as possible before the IAM rider peels off and Lampre take over and start to set the pace. The gap has gone out to 6'21 as we start to ride through the snow banked roads.
116km remaining from 210km
Back in the bunch the peloton is steady rather than anything else. We've not seen any riders come under difficulty as Movistar snake their way to the top of the climb. 116km to go.
Denifl, don't mess with the master. The IAM Cycling rider is IAM eager and goes far too early. Cunego just sits in and then takes the points at the top the climb as back in the peloton a single tear rolls down Visconti's cheek.
Cunego 35 points, Denifl 18 and the Lopez third. The trio are on the descent.
The peloton close in in the summit of the first climb of the day as the break dive down the other side in glorious sunshine. The conditions really couldn't be better.
The break realise the importance of establishing a lead early on, and that there are still a number of passengers in their numbers. On the descent they press on and bring the gap out to 7'10. That's the biggest it's been during the stage.
Lopez has pushed on alone at the front of the race as we start the second climb of the day.
The Passo Sella has pitches of 12 per cent so it's certainly not easy and we've still over 100km of racing to come. Roche though, he's back in the break and getting a free ride.
105km remaining from 210km
105km remaining. Lopez leads with the break around a minute down, and the peloton at 6'55.
Betancur has come back to the peloton. The front of the peloton has looked similar for the last hour and that's because Rory Sutherland (Movistar Team) hasn't moved at all. He's been a rock at the front for Amador and Valverde during the stage.
Lopez crests the summit of the climb with Roche second. Cunego is a few places further down. The break is down to around a dozen riders or so. The bunch at 7'13.
Rory Sutherland has the peloton strung out as the peloton continue to climb. A few riders are starting to slip back at the rear of the peloton due to the efforts made by the Australian. Amador/Valverde have four men left. Astana have their full quota though, Tinkoff too.
The gap between the leaders and the peloton is up to 8'32 as Movistar hit the top of the second climb. 96km to go and four major climbs.
Lopez has been caught by a number of chasers, including Plaza, Roche and Atapuma. This is critical part of the race of the break because they need to keep their lead increasing over the next two climbs. They've dropped a number of riders who were not working and their down to around 10 in numbers.
Riders left in the break are Domont, Zeits, Atapuma, Moser, Siutsou, De La Cruz, Monfort, Cunego, Plaza, Preidler, Kochetkov, Lopez, Roche. (via Cyclingpro.net).
Plaza has made a move from the front of the group.
Plaza has found a new lease of life in the last couple of years and is now on the Orica GreenEdge team. 93km to go but he's gone for a long one.
De la Cruz and Lopez have gone after Plaza and they've now been joined by Atapuma.
Who needs a team of nine when you've got Sutherland in your ranks? The Australian has been pulling on the front all morning and he's still there, three climbs into the stage.
Plaza has 18 seconds on the chasers and he continues to press on alone. He has three men hunting him down at the moment.
Atapuma, De la Cruz and Lopez are 23 seconds down on Plaza, with 82 km to go.
A group containing Ulissi and his Lampre teammates is nearly four minutes down on the leaders, with the peloton another five back.
@Lotto_Soudal Sat, 21st May 2016 12:42:51
Movistar have lost a couple of men from the peloton and they're down to five or six as we hit the Passo Campolongo. There's no let up from Plaza as he continues to put time into the peloton.
News from race radio is that Hejsedal has abandoned. He was riding in the top 15 in GC but is now on his way home. That's a huge blow for Trek Segafredo.
Plaza crests the top of the climb and he has 48 seconds on the chase. There's no doubt now that he's going for the stage win today. He won in Gap during the Tour de France last year and the chase trio simply can't get on terms with the Orica GreenEdge rider.
Nibali back in the peloton has had a pretty easy ride so far as we see him back in the peloton having some lunch. Plaza, meanwhile, his falling like a stone on the descent and fighting for every second. It looks like Movistar have lost another rider from the front of the field. Amador... will he be forced to work for Valverde while wearing pink?
There are just two domestiques on the front of the peloton with Amador and Valverde, and one of them is Sutherland, who has been on the front of the peloton for most of the stage.
Siutsou is now the virtual leader on the road for Dimension Data.
The two chase groups have now re-formed but Plaza is still out there on his own and putting time into both the chase and the peloton.
News here on Hesjedal leaving the race due to illness. The Canadian was struck down by stomach problems and leaves the race while riding in the top 15.
Hasn't Siutsou led the Giro before? Perhaps back in 2009 during his High Road dayss. Meanwhile, up the road Plaza has 1'39 on the chase group and 9'21 on the peloton.
You have to question the chase at the moment because they've allowed Plaza to have two minutes on them now. The next climb coming up is brutal but that's still a decent enough gap for the Orica GreenEdge rider. Should Sky chase? They have two men in the second group on the road.
@CafeRoubaix Sat, 21st May 2016 13:20:00
Plaza, out of the saddle, and out in the lead. Impressive ride from the Orica GreenEdge rider who is heading to the hardest climb of the day, the Passo Giau.
50km remaining from 210km
And we've started the climb with 50km to go. Movistar just about holding their own with four men on the front, one of them Sutherland. Surely this is where Astana will come to the fore and take up the reigns at the front of the peloton.
@Lotto_Soudal Sat, 21st May 2016 13:33:14
Plaza is on the steepest part of the climb but he's keeping it together as he pushes on. He's lost a few seconds to the chase as the peloton sit 9'02 back.
Plaza is losing more time. The gap is at 1'15. Now 1'10.
Siutsou is leading the chase and he has Plaza at 29 seconds. That helps Cunego too, in the KOM competition, who is in the chase too.
Sutherland is spent and now Rojas takes over for Movistar. The main field is down to less than 40 riders. Here come Astana, hitting the front with 48km to go.
48km remaining from 210km
48km to and Nibali and his men take over as Rojas goes backwards. Up the road and Siutsou has Roche, Atapuma and Preidler with him. Cunego has been dropped.
Amador is starting to slip back already in this pink jersey group. Astana have turned the peloton into a very selective group as they increase the pace Brambilla has been dropped.
Amador has moved up to Valverde's wheel once more. All the other GC riders are there, apart from Hesjedal who quit the race earlier today due to illness.
Back to the front and Plaza has 56 seconds on the chase but he's all over the road at the moment as he looks to keep the pace as high as possible.
Visconti now dropped by the bunch. Formolo also out the back.
Uran still has two men with him though. Jungels is in the pink jersey group too.
Atapuma and Siutsou have gone clear and dropped Roche though, as they cut Plaza's lead to 27 seconds.
@Etixx_QuickStep Sat, 21st May 2016 13:45:15
Four Astana riders at the front of the peloton and they're cutting the lead to the break to 8 minutes with 46km go to. Plaza has just 17 seconds on the two riders hunting him down.
Plaza is grinding his way up the climb as Chaves is left to fend for himself with his last teammate dropped from the peloton. Siutsou and Atapuma can see Plaza up ahead now. They'll make the catch in the next few minutes.
@Movistar_Team Sat, 21st May 2016 13:51:58
Majka is another rider all on his own too. As the three riders up ahead make one group.
As cool as you like. Fuglsang drifts back and just gazes as Amador and Valverde as if to say 'is that all you've got?'.
Up the road and Plaza has been dropped.
And Jungels has been dropped. And Fuglsang too. He look comfortable but he's cracked.
Amador is slipping back and Nibali only has Scarponi with him.
Uran still has man with him. Chaves, Zakarin, Majka, Pozzovivo, and Kruijswijk (Team LottoNl-Jumbo) all there too.
Astana will drop the race leader if they keep this up. The pace is so fast. The two leaders are still climbing and they have 5'30.
Astana will drop the race leader if they keep this up. The pace is so fast. The two leaders are still climbing and they have 5'30.
44km remaining from 210km
And Amador is hanging on for dear life as Scarponi ups the pace once more. Amador is the last man in the group.
@LottoJumbo_road Sat, 21st May 2016 13:58:01
A dozen riders left as Scarponi continues to set the pace for Nibali, with Amador still at the back of the GC group. They'll want to drop him before the summit, in order to isolate Valverde and negate any Amador attacks on the descent.
Amador is pushing a gear that's too big, he's really in trouble and he's starting to lose contact. He comes back this time but he cant do that again.
42km remaining from 210km
And he's gone. Race leader Amador has been dropped by Astana. 42km to go.
Zeits has joined from the GC group from the earlier break so we have three Astana riders in the GC group with Valverde on his own. Amador has lost around 15 seconds.
Amador is all on his own too with 42km to go. Even if he gets back on the descent he'll be dropped on the next climb.
Siutsou reminds me of Tonkov - just ploughs on, almost metronomic in pedal stroke, although he has a higher RPM than the former Mapei man. He looks good on a bike, that's what I meant.
The two leaders have 4'30 over the Nibali group, with Amador another 30 seconds down. The stage win is in the balance at the moment.
@Cyclingnewsfeed Sat, 21st May 2016 14:07:32
@Cyclingnewsfeed Sat, 21st May 2016 14:07:32
The Dimension Data rider leads over the top of the climb. He's done most of the work to be fair. Amador is losing more time down the mountain though, it's almost 45 seconds to Nibali and Co.
The Fuglsang group catch Amador who has lost 50 seconds on his rivals as Scarponi keeps the pace high. They hit the summit of the climb, 4"00 down on the stage leaders.
No help from Fuglsang and company for Amador, who is forced to do all the work, as you would expect. He's about a minute down at the top. He might be able to make contact before the final climb.
On the descent and heading to the final categorised climb of the day, the Passo Valparola. Some 12 per cent slopes and we're likely to see the GC riders attacks one another. Keep an eye on Majka, who is just sitting in the wheels and waiting for his opportunity.
On the descent an Amador is making up time. He's now 20 seconds back on the Nibali/Valverde group. He's descending like a demon.
He's possibly the best descender in the race. Up the road and Preidler (Team Giant-Alpecin) has caught the leading pair.
@Lotto_Soudal Sat, 21st May 2016 14:23:11
30km remaining from 210km
Onto the final climb of the day and the leading trio have 3'53 on the Nibali group. It's touch and go if they can hold on for the stage win.
Impressive. Amador has made it back to the Nibali group with 30km to go.
3'49 for the three leaders as Scaproni continues to set the pace on the climb. The rest of the GC contenders are nicely tucked in.
Chaves moves into the wind for a second, undoes his jersey, and then returns to Majka's rear wheel.
Scarponi looks back at Nibali and checks on his team leader. Will Nibali try and attack towards the top of the climb?
Once again Amador is at the back of the group as Nieve is dropped, with Scarponi gritting his teeth.
27km remaining from 210km
Nibali has attacked.
Kruijswijk (Team LottoNl-Jumbo) responds, then Chaves and the rest. Amador is dropped.
Valverde is also dropped. He didnt even try to respond.
Scarponi is marking Valverde as Amador tries to come back to them.
Nibali's attack wasn't brutal, the leading group seemed to slowly implode though. The leaders are
Nibali, Kruijswijk and Chaves.
25km remaining from 210km
And now Atapuma has attacked and gone clear.
Uran, Zakarin and Majka are closing in on the Nibali group.
Nibali's group has 15 seconds on Valverde.
Valverde and Amador are trading turns but they're losing time. It looks like, at this stage, as though Nibali is riding into the pink jersey. Still 25km to go though.
Amador can't help Valverde, he's really struggling and loses contact. Movistar's armada had has been scattered by Astana.
Groups all over the road as Nibali leads his group. He will want help from others with the TT coming tomorrow.
Valverde has lost almost 30 seconds on Nibali. The Spaniard is slipping, he's in serious trouble.
Chaves comes through and takes a turn. No it's an attack and Nibali has to work to chase it down.
And Zakarin is in trouble as Kruijswijk attacks and he's gone clear. That's a huge move.
Chaves and Nibali need to chase this one. The Lotto rider looks back and sees the gap. The Giro has well and truly begun.
23km remaining from 210km
And now Chaves has dropped Nibali.
Kruijswijk and Chaves are about to link up as Nibali struggles on the climb.
The time gaps today are going to be huge. Kruijswijk and Chaves has about 10 seconds on Nibali but there's still a long way to go on the climb.
Chaves and Kruijswijk are working well together and they could be racing for the stage win at this rate.
What must be going through Nibali's mind? Dropped Valverde and looked in control but has since been dropped by Kruijswijk and Chaves.
Nibali is about 11 seconds down on Kruijswijk and Chaves. 22km to go.
Valverde, though, well he's 90 seconds down on Nibali.
Nibali continues to lose time, it's around 20 seconds now as he smashes on the pedals in anger. At least he's putting time in Valverde.
@Cyclingnewsfeed Sat, 21st May 2016 14:45:06
Kruijswijk and Chaves have 30 seconds on Nibali with 20km to go. Atapuma is about to crest the top of the climb.
20km remaining from 210km
Siutsou group at 15
Kruijswijk and Chaves at 51
Nibali at 1'16
Valverde at 2'59
Okay, so now Atapuma goes over the top. Chaves and Kruijswijk might be the favourites for the stage now, as they're only at 48 seconds.
@cyclingslopes Sat, 21st May 2016 14:51:20
At the top of the climb Kruijswijk and Chaves catch Siutsou and Preidler.
Nibali goes over the top and he has to put in a huge descent.
Valeverde and Amador are dragging themselves up the climb but they're losing minutes, not seconds today.
Nibali has to put in one the best descents of his life now if he's to pull on pink today.
Kruijswijk is the virtual leader on the road as we head to the final ascent to the finish.
Nibali isn't pulling back time, I'm afraid. He looks good on the corners but he's simply not got the speed.
Atapuma has 20 seconds on the Kruijswijk group with 12km to go.
Nibali is almost a minute down on the group ahead of him at this moment. The time gaps keep jumping around though.
Now the gap between Nibali and Kruijswijk is 30 seconds. It's going to be so close for the maglia rosa.
@Cyclingnewsfeed Sat, 21st May 2016 15:01:07
10km remaining from 210km
Inside the final 10km. Nibali is still around 30 seconds down on Kruijswijk and Chaves.
@RichardPlugge Sat, 21st May 2016 15:04:18
Atapuma hangs on and has 26 seconds with 7km to go. There's a final climb to the finish and that will decide who takes the stage, and who pulls on pink.
Nibali is pulling back some time but there are time bonuses on the line too. 5km to go and Atapuma is climbing again.
So are the chase group who are 21 seconds back.
Nibali is climbing too and he has to make up 30 seconds. That's a big ask.
Nibali is 20 seconds back. Kruijswijk is in pink as things stand.
Nibali is coming... he's pulling back time on the climb.
Kruijswijk takes it up and sets the pace. He wants the maglia rosa.
Nibali is not giving up. He's giving it everything. He's at 15 seconds.
Atapuma only has 15 seconds with 4km to go.
Now we descend again before the final climb up to the line.
Atapuma is riding the stage of his life though and has fought back to hold a 16 second lead.
Further down and Valverde and Amador are losing around three minutes.
Nibali has lost a bit more time though, he's at 20 seconds behind Chaves and Kruijswijk.
Atapuma is about to be caught with 2km to go.
So cruel for the BMC climber who has been out there for so long.
Now four men in the front group with just over 1km to go.
They keep looking back but they need to keep riding and put more time into Nibali.
Attack from Preidler.
They're all cooked. They cant' come around him.
Here comes Chaves, and he takes the win.
Kruijswijk was second.
Nibali comes over the line and he's lost over 30 seconds.
Amador now is coming to the line. He's lost his maglia rosa and several minutes today. Valverde also losing considerable time.
Zakarin and Majka lost 2'30 today. Uran wasn't in the top ten though. He was with that group on the penultimate climb but it seems he was dropped.

Well Nibali gets rid of Valverde today and certainly Amador but Kruijswijk has turned this race on it's head, along with Chaves.
So Chaves takes the stage and Kruijswijk takes the lead in the race. Our report page is here and includes race photos, results, and soon, our video highlights.
Nibali was pounced on at the line.
Happy? "Half and half. I'm happy to drop Valverde.
"They [Chaves and Kruijswijk] did a beautiful attack today. I suffered with the change of rhythm really. I had to let them go and measure the effort. Maybe they had a bit of help at the front, I was close for a while but I couldn't get back. It was quite windy and they were doing turns so it was easier for them to get time than for me to get back on."
Steven Kruijswijk (Lotto NL-Jumbo):
"I knew I was with Esteban [Chaves] and for the sprint, I knew that he was very fast. I think I had in my mind to gain more time on my competitors for the GC and it worked out pretty good. I felt really good all day. I knew that this kind of stage would suit me pretty good, after the first mountain stage we had yesterday. Today, I could attack and really had some good power. I was lucky that I had Esteban with me and we could work together. I'm happy to get the pink jersey.
"[Tomorrow's time trial] going to be really hard. I think I'm feeling confident, and it's only the third day in the mountains, so I'm confident that I can have a good time trial.
"Esteban was really strong today. I think he showed, together with me, that he was one of the strongest in the race. First, let's do tomorrow and then we will see after the rest day."
"I'm really happy. Winning the queen stage in the Giro is really special. This is not only for me, but for the team, who worked really well today. All the guys, the mechanics, soigneurs, people away from the race at the office. Orica-GreenEdge is a big family, thanks to Shayne Bannan, everyone.
Everyone was riding at their limits. Kruisjwijk started his attack, then I tried to follow. It was a steep climb, and then when we saw Nibali was dropped we started to work together.
There's a lot of this Giro left. This is great but we'll see what happens tomorrow."
Lotto have experience in winning the Giro, back when they were Rabobank in 2009 with Dennis Menchov. They will need another similar ride this year as they don't have a team to match Astana or Movistar.
A reminder of the situation on GC:
1 Steven Kruijswijk (Ned) Team LottoNl-Jumbo 60:12:43
2 Vincenzo Nibali (Ita) Astana Pro Team 0:00:41
3 Esteban Chaves (Col) Orica-GreenEdge 0:01:32
4 Alejandro Valverde (Spa) Movistar Team 0:03:06

How to Win Business with your Blog – Part 3: Content
OK, so we understand how a blog can build your credibility and establish your personality. And we've figured out what we're going to focus on.
But what on earth do we write about? Where do all the ideas come from?
Well, when you start up your blog, it should be no problem. If you're not initially bursting with ideas in the area you've decided to focus on, then you've picked the wrong area.
That doesn't mean you can just write about anything in that area though. Early on, concentrate on creating your "core content". Core Content is the central set of ideas, principles, beliefs and insights that you have about your subject area. It's your best stuff that you teach your clients.
Later on, it's OK to do lighter, fluffier posts. Say something controversial. Riff on something off-topic.
But initially you need to establish your reputation with your very best material.
It could be a set of "how to" guides for the key topics in your area of focus. Or it could be a series of posts going into depth in one subect like this series I'm doing on blogs.
But get your good stuff out there quickly.
When those initial ideas dry up – and they will if you blog for any length of time – you need to get more disciplined about creating content.
Keep a notebook or voice recorder with you to capture ideas as they happen. Believe me, if you don't you'll forget them.
Get into the habit of observing life from the viewpoint of your blog. If you write a blog about leadership, for example, then when you're watching sports, or the TV, or kids playing, or a cat stalking a bird or whatever – think about how you could learn something about leadership from that example.
Bring in stories from your daily life, and your history. Your readers will find stories and anecdotes that illustrate a point rather more entertaining and engaging than straight "you should do this" all the time.
Block out time in your calendar to work on content. Set up an editorial calendar (there's a wordpress plugin for that, of course) and stick to it.
The more content you create, the better and faster you'll get at creating it. And don't argue that you're too busy – Chris Brogan and Seth Godin both post almost daily. And they're busy guys too.
The next post in the series is my very best tip on creating content that wins you clients…

Renting property is an expensive business. This is especially true if you live in big, popular cities like London where the cost of renting accounts for almost half of the average salary. Many people feel like they live from hand to mouth with very little, if any money left over each month for savings. If you are trying to create a savings fund, whether for the purpose of buying a home or for any other reason, keep reading for some handy ways to save money while you are renting.
Switch providers
You have a certain amount of control over your monthly bills like heating, electricity, internet and television. Using comparison websites like uSwitch to feed in the details of your current accounts. The site will then provide you with information on the better deals you could get by switching providers. Your landlord should not prevent you from doing this. However, if you do face any resistance, the Citizens Advice service will be able to provide you with information on how you can proceed.
Cheap or free furniture
Buying furniture for an unfurnished rental property can be a huge expense. Luckily, there are a number of ways to save money on these purchases. Waiting for the sales could mean you bag a few bargains. If this is not practical, charity shops, eBay or websites like Freecycle (where you can pick up second-hand furniture for free) could help you to minimise this cost.
Reduce your rent
If you feel your rent is really preventing you from saving, you may wish to consider looking for another, less expensive property. You will want to find somewhere that is affordable and in good condition, and this can take time. So, you may wish to enlist a good estate agent to help you out. They can do most of the legwork for you, and send you recommendations based on your requirements. Although you will need to pay admin fees for this service, this will likely be worth it for the potential long-term savings you could make.
Haggle on rent
Many tenants aren't aware that they can attempt to negotiate the monthly rental cost before signing a contract with the landlord. Not every landlord will be willing to do this but, especially when you are living in a city where it is a tenant's market, many will be desperate to rent out their properties. When viewing, use any noticeable flaws (like a stained carpet or a cracked ceiling) to haggle for a lower rental price. If they are open to negotiations like this, you may succeed in reducing the monthly cost.
Evaluate your finances
Taking a regular examination of your financial situation is important and helpful when it comes to saving. Grab your bank statements for the last six months and highlight areas where you could realistically cut costs. For example, can you save money on transport by cycling or walking to work? Can you cut costs by making your lunches at home rather than buying them every day? These may seem like little changes, but together they add up to potential big savings.
No matter how much your rent affects the amount you can save each month, there are things that can be done to better this situation. I hope you find this information of use.

When you are starting your own business, you need to make sure that you are setting up a website. Websites can help to guide your customers to your services and your contact details. If you are planning on selling items online then you'll need an ecommerce site that works. Today, mobile optimization for this site is key.
Here, we are going to tell you why mobile optimization is important. Keep reading to find out more.
What Is Mobile Optimization?
If you are not familiar with the term mobile optimisation then you might be wondering what we are talking about. Essentially, this kind of process involves making sure that your website can be accessed on a mobile phone or tablet. While this is usually the case, mobile optimisation involves making sure that the website is easy to read and use, as this does not always translate well when a simple desktop site is used.
Mobile optimisation should usually be done by a professional but if you think that you have the tech skills required then you can optimise your business website for mobile.
Mobiles Are Used All The Time
One of the most important reasons why you should make sure that your site has been optimised for mobile use is that most people are solely using mobile phones to access the internet. This has increased a lot over the years and so you need to keep up. Staying on top of the latest trends is vital in the business world and so this is definitely something to consider.
Keeping Customers
Put yourself in your customers' shoes. You log onto a site to check out what they have to offer but you cannot access the pages properly or read the text because it hasn't been optimised for mobile use. Do you switch to another site that has? Or do you stick around? The likelihood is that your customers won't stick around to see the rest of your site if it doesn't work properly or takes too long to load. If you want to keep your customers then you should make sure to optimise your site for mobile use.
Beating The Competition
Finally, you will find that mobile optimisation is important because it can help you to beat the competition. If your competitors are offering mobile sites and you aren't then you are going to lose out on some profit and this is less than ideal. For those in the initial stages of a start-up, it is worth creating a mobile version of your site.
Final Verdict
If you are planning on setting up a business or you are already running one then you need to consider the fact that mobile optimisation is important. Follow our advice and this should help you to give your business a boost.

DELHI: "Don't hashtag, they're thirsty," Ellie (played by Jenna Ortega) tells the lead character of popular Netflix series You in one of the episodes of the recently released season 2. The 13-year-old girl was teaching the art of using social media to the subject, something that comes like second nature to her generation. While she was talking about building a personal brand on the photo-sharing website of Instagram, we have been observing a sneaky exit of numerous hashtags from other brand posts as well. For example, observe the number of hashtags in the Teddy Day posts made by Manforce India, one of the most active brands on social media, in the past few years.
From 23 hashtags in 2017, the brand has used just two hashtags for this year's post. So, the question that arises is; are hashtags dying?
The marketing and advertising industry doesn't think so.
According to The Marcom Avenue director Divanshi Gupta the conversation about hashtags dying is quite irrelevant to today's time, when every campaign that a brand marketer conceptualises begins by producing a catchy '#'!
She says, "The current status of hashtags is quite important but its application in trying to reach to the target audience is now only limited to using the relevant hashtags, as users search and follow hashtags to keep them updated on the platform. Also, hashtags have a different level of reach and meaning to different social media platforms. Thus, the chances of hashtags dying in the near future are quite bleak."
Logicserve Digital founder and CEO Prasad Shejale also insists that they remain a great medium of brand engagement.
"According to Sprout Social report, an Instagram post with a single hashtag can gain 12.6 per cent more engagement compared to a post with no hashtag. They are very useful to attract the right audience and amplify the reach of posts, campaigns with an ability to make things go viral. This, in turn, helps brands target the niche markets and create brand awareness among masses. Even for me, when I post anything on my LinkedIn or other social platforms, with the right hashtag I see a significant boost in the reach."
However, there is a need to filter and streamline the number and the quality of hashtags a brand is using with its posts.
Shejale adds, "Brands shouldn't overuse hashtags as it can hamper readability and can affect the engagement. It's also equally crucial to keep the hashtag simple and narrow to retain attention and achieve effective marketing outcomes."
Mirum India ECD Naila Patel highlights, "Hashtags were designed to categorise conversations better and most content creators felt the need to add multiple hashtags to explain or engage people in the discussion. But slowly, hashtags seem to have moved away from the omnipotent role to a more 'good to have' existence. In-fact a lot of famous campaigns have seen single hashtags."
Elaborating on how to pick the right hashtags, Isobar national head for social media Aakriti Sinha notes, "With the advent of ephemeral content, formats like memes, daily trends, Instagram TV, Insta Live and stickers and now music, hashtags anyway had begun to take a backseat with the dip in number of Instagram posts. There is no necessity to add hashtags except for the campaign hashtags for recall for promoted content. What matters is the CTA vs. the hashtag discoverability. For such content, the campaign hashtags should play a role of brand/campaign activity and/or encourage UGC using the same."
Gupta adds, "In a social media campaign, the manager should use a limited number of hashtags wisely to enhance reach. Also, the hashtags used should represent: you, your idea, your brand ideology, trend, and industry. Using hashtags on the basis of these parameters will help you in reaching and appearing in user's feed who have an interest in similar searches."
While hashtags are expected to stay, the next point to ponder on is the right number of hashtags to put on a brand post. Even industry experts are not sure about the right number.
While Sinha believes that the idle number should be between 5 and 10 Gupta notes that the usage of hashtags should be limited within the range of 3 to 5. Patel argues that only Instagram as a platform has a role for multiple hashtags. She pegs the ideal numbers to be three-four.
Shejale says, "It's difficult to decide on an exact number of ideal hashtags to be used for posts. But yes, I would say, around 7-10 hashtags are enough."
Gupta shares that using hashtags will help the brand be found in more places but it has to be ensured that the post doesn't have irrelevant keywords, as it'll lead to diminished reach.
Hence, it is safe to conclude that hashtags are not making an exit from the digital world anytime soon, but it is more important for brands today to strategise around this tool for maximum social engagement without any irrelevant reach that can hamper the conversion rates for them.

Target has really stepped up their clothing game and let me tell you, I was impressed when I went shopping. I think sometimes I go into a place with the intent that I'm going to buy $100 worth of things and can't find anything I want but at Target I usually go in with the thought that I'm going to spend $50 and could've walked out with $300 worth of clothes. Everything here is under $40 though so it's a steal for this season! All products are linked on my like to know it or just tap the picture to get to them!
Also I need to know, which outfit best describes your fall/winter mood? I'm totally a sweater girl during the day and pjs the second I get home!

Leeuwarden Airbase, 22nd of April 2009
Report and photos by Stacey Kort-
© Code ALPHA Aviation Photography. Email for photo and/or text usage!
Back again at Leeuwarden! This time for the annual "Frisian Flag" exercise, which is held at Leeuwarden Airbase. Goal of Frisian Flag is accomplishing a variety of missions with internation cooperation using the latest tactics and technologies. Eventhough a lot of the invited squadrons couldn't participate, such as the Polish Vipers, it was still interesting enough for us to pay a visit to Leeuwarden.
Bert van Veldhuizen, the person with whom I travelled to Leeuwarden picked me up at 06:00, just to be sure we wouldn't miss anything. While underway it became clear that there was some fog and several low hanging clouds, so we hoped that it would clear before we would see any activity. The fog went away, but the clouds were still there, just like a strong north-eastern wind which made our lenses sway left and right. We weren't sure which runway would be in use, so we went to Marssum, which is at the beginning of runway 06. After a while the first aircraft started up, and were cleared to use any runway they requested. They opted to go for the 06, which meant that the aircraft took off away from us. While the aircraft performed their last checks, the clouds still didn't clear so we had some issues with the lighting. Heathaze also killed a lot of our shots. But this was al made up by the amount of aircraft which took to the skies.
After about one and a halve hours the first aircraft returned to Leeuwarden, and not long after the skies over Leeuwarden quickly started filling up with aircraft entering the pattern. Kudos to the air traffic control which kept all the aircraft in a safe distance from eachother! The most special formation was that of a mixed F-15 and F-16 flight coming in for initials. Not only did the wind prove to be tricky for the photographers, several pilots really had to fight the crosswind. Luckily they all made it back in one piece, only to be sent up some hours later.
Bert and I decided to go to Jelsum for the departures of the second wave. We didn't know if this would be a good spot for departures, because last time I was at Leeuwarden, runway 24 was in use and now the 06 was in use. We decided to give it a go. But it turned out that it wasn't really a good spot, because you really face the underside of the aircraft. Oh well, lesson learned we shall say! We returned to Marssum once again, but arriving there it became evident that a lot more people turned up to see the aircraft. But we were still able to go to the part of the hill where we stood earlier.
When we got to that spot, luck would have it that the first aircraft reported to be five minutes out. Again the skies over Leeuwarden quickly filled up, but I only had two gigs left so I had to ease of the shutterrelease. This proved to be a tad difficult, because now the jets were coming in with more interesting angles because of the crosswind. Just like earlier that day all the jets were able to touchdown safely. Nothing more was expected that day, so Bert and I decided to return back home after a great day at Leeuwarden Airbase during Frisian Flag 2009!

"My dog's teeth were getting black and her breath was awful. I bought TruDog's dental chews and it has made such a difference on both her teeth and her breath. She just had her yearly checkup and the vet was pleased with her teeth; said they looked great, no teeth cleaning needed. I will always keep a supply of Clean Me Dental Chews at my home. Thank you TruDog for such a great product." –Esther C.
Only $35.98!

Dental Care The Natural Way
Many commercially available dental chews rely solely on texture to remove plaque and tartar and freshen breath. Additionally, many of them are made with grains, artificial ingredients and numerous other additives and dyes.
Clean Me is made with proven, patented O.M. Complex-Oral along with other natural ingredients like anise seed and parsley. These ingredients, along with special textures, help Clean Me to remove plaque and tartar from your pup's teeth as well as freshen their breath.

70 Nonprofit Trends for 2015
Pamela Barden, consultant, P J Barden Inc.
7. A board of directors that is qualified, engaged, passionate about the mission and committed is essential for nonprofit success. This requires training board members both in the role of a nonprofit board and in the nuances of the organization, communicating, engaging the board regularly and (as staff) being willing to be "directed." Nonprofits that are led by value-adding boards are a step ahead when it comes to long-term growth.
Wayne Luke, managing partner, nonprofit practice, Witt/Kieffer
8. Identify key philanthropy leadership. In order to bring growth, key qualities for philanthropy leaders in 2015 include experience creating and deploying new programs and identifying and tapping fresh sources of funding. Some of these leaders may be "bridgers" who originate from the for-profit space and are transitioning to not-for-profit organizations with invaluable relationship management, business development, leadership and management experience.
Richard Perry, founding partner, and Jeff Schreifels, senior partner, Veritus Group
1. A push for a higher level of professionalism and accountability in the major gift field. Look for a call to an accredit the position beyond a CFRE as more and more nonprofits embrace major gifts and are quickly dismayed at the dearth of solid talent to fill positions.
Gail Perry, consultant, Fired-Up Fundraising
2. Mega donors making mega gifts. Mega gifts are clearly back! Our most wealthy and generous donors are making major investments to their favorite nonprofit causes.
The top 10 biggest charitable gifts in 2014 came to a combined total of an amazing $3.3 billion, according to the Chronicle of Philanthropy. Imagine that much money coming from just 10 people!
Richard Perry, founding partner, and Jeff Schreifels, senior partner, Veritus Group
1. Increased efforts on the part of fundraising professionals to package their organizations' budgets so the donating public can understand how the money is used and what funds are needed. More and more enlightened nonprofit managers will work harder to present their budgets to external publics in a form that is outcome- and results-oriented vs. finance- and accounting-functional.

Today, businesses have more data about their customers than ever. For most e-commerce brands, this presents a big opportunity to transform their data into a driver of recurring revenue and long-term growth using paid media channels like Facebook Ads.
Untapping a growth opportunity
Did you know that it costs five times as much to attract a new customer than to keep an existing one? On average, repeat customers make up 40% of sales, while only representing 8% of customers.
Not being fully aware of this cause businesses to dedicate most part of their marketing efforts and investment to customer acquisition. But allocating resources to retain more customers can bring big rewards. As pointed in a study by Bain & Company, a 5% increase in retention can improve profitability by as much as 55%.
Having customers buying from your brand repeatedly translates to increased lifetime value, or the total amount spent from their first purchase to their last, but encouraging re-purchases requires a system of communication in every step of their journey.
Why Facebook Ads?
Facebook Ads give you the opportunity to continue building a relationship with your customers before and after their initial purchase. However, it's critical that each message you send is relevant to them, and that's where the purchase history data you own can make a difference.
The key point for sustainable growth through paid media is to understand the different relationship every customer has with your brand, and connect with them showing the right message at the right time. You can do that with the help of segmentation and Facebook Ads.
The Retention Matrix approach
The following method will allow you to optimize the performance of Ad campaigns to existing customers by segmenting your customer data upon your business goals. Note that it is strongly recommended to use a segmentation tool to avoid time-consuming manual work that the process requires.
In order to start creating customer segments, you need to set a segmentation criteria. We will use a framework called the Retention Matrix, which includes two pre-defined segment conditions:
It's a simple scheme that divides your customer base in 4 different customer types, depending on the transactions that they have made with your business. The matrix has two axes, based on how active and how loyal your customers are.
The first step is to allocate the four different types of customers in the 4 quadrants. You can do this by setting a number of days since their last purchase (recency) and the total number of transactions they've made (frequency).
In this example, we'll consider 90 days since last purchase as the reference to differentiate active customers (under 90 days) vs. inactive customers (over 90 days). For the vertical axis, we will separate customers who purchased only once (one-timers) and those who purchased more than once (loyals). These are the different segment conditions of each quadrant:
The whole point of this matrix is to set a marketing strategy for each of the 4 subsets of customers with the objective of encouraging repeat sales. The resulting action plan would look like this:
The second step is to upload these 4 customer segments to Facebook as custom audiences, so you can target customized campaigns to each of them.
The third and last step of the process is tailoring specific messages for each custom audience. For your reference, here are some examples of Ad campaigns for each of the four action plans:
Build Awareness
TOMS features company values by sharing inspiring customer stories around its products.
Remarketing ad by Happy Socks. Offering a discount as an incentive is, in many cases, the trigger to win back dormant customers.
Flywheel's lead nurturing campaigns offer content that resonates with existing or potential clients, building a relationship and leading them to the buying stage.
GoPro launched a trade-up promo following an Up-Selling ad strategy to get existing customers to buy their recently launched product.
This process can get much more sophisticated and include many more segments based on different products, categories, levels of recency and frequency, etc.. for which specialized software like Relevanzz is needed.
The success of your Ad campaigns using the Retention matrix will highly depend on two factors: selecting the right criteria to build the customer segments and aligning the action plan consistently with the right Ads to each group.
The Customer Segmentation tool for Facebook Ads
Relevanzz is a segmentation platform specifically designed for Facebook Ads. It allows marketers to build advanced customer segments based on transactional data and sync them automatically with Facebook, enabling unlimited possibilities of campaign creation.
Ready to get started increasing your customer retention? Create a free account with Relevanzz, follow the Retention Matrix strategies here described and consistently keep track of your business's retention rates to get the most out of your customer base.

Five Star Gilbert Pool Refinishing Service
Highly Recommend!
"We hired nuView for a new pool and landscape design and we couldn't be more happier with how things turned out. Shawn and his team were awesome to work with and kept us informed throughout the duration of the project. The quality of work is second to none and they finished when they said they would. Definitely check these guys out if you're considering a new pool or landscaping project. They're the real deal!"
