It was supposed to be a flat stage for sprinters but it turned out to be very selective for the race for PINK.

Jonathan NARVAEZ wins stage 4 in Cosenza, Calabria. Narvaez is part of althe UAE decimated team who lost the captain Yates and Vine and Soler…

The giro sounds South American (Silva and Narvaez) and French (Magnier * 2)  this year.

But Giulio CICCONE comes in thirs today  ahead of AULAR Orluis gaining 4 small seconds bonus which help him to reach the PINK Jersey.

The contest

Antonio Sposato’s Little Tony and the two stolen tytles wins the mountain stage (KOM), taking the leadership in GC and El_Loco9’s Los Locos wins the road stage climbing to 18th in GC (yesterday he was 25th)…

No major changes in GC top positions today, but check out your details

Who are Antonio and Los Loco9?

They happen to be colleagues sitting in the same office, and currently my colleagues. This means tomorrow they will need to pay double breakfast to the rest of the team.

Antonio is a fan of Juventus, Los Loco9 is a fan of Inter. They spend the whole monday morning arguing about football. I don’t give a damn, the only thing i know is that there was some scandal of championship stolen/sold between the two Teams and that there is continuously arguing about referees. I add my two cents to the monday morning discussion about selling games and the fight restarts all over again

Something about Cosenza

Once a time, a long ago, i used to live in a place near Napoli (one day i will tell you about my whereabouts).

One of my neighbours was called Cosenza, actually they called him Conte Cosenza. i don’t believe he was a nobleman, but when you are young you are very keen to believing in all sorts of bullshit…

Anyway, once we were with my family travelling by car towards Calabria and we saw a road sign indicating Cosenza.

In my imagination one that was a Conte, was incredibly rich. So incredibly rich that he would own an entire town, and i commented it loud to my family.

My sisters joked me for weeks for my lack of knowledge in geography and for the imagine of a rich Conte i would have.

After this i can tell you exactly where Cosenza is (how many of you can without the use of Google Maps ?) but the wealthiness of Conte Cosenza for me is still mythological.

Bugs and Technical flaws of the program

The KOM problem has been solved. It was not a programming issue but a wrong parameter is setup (note that i created the program myself and i didn’t remember this detail)

 

In development:

Private championships – a place where you can create sub-leagues and challenge whoever you want

Excel download of results – remember the old fancy Excel? it’s coming
