The Riccò Show

So in Tirreno-Adriatico's Stage 2 Young Boy Riccò made a big show at the finish:

"I was raising the speed and taking off for the sprint when Gerdemann (High Road) touched me from behind. He did not do it on purpose, because he was tired and could no longer see. But I would have won on my legs alone. The thing that bothers me the most is throwing away a guaranteed win." The altercation – the left side of Riccò's rear touched with Gerdemann's front wheel – caused a few broken spokes and forced 'The Cobra' to walk across the line for fifth place. Riccò immediately tossed his Scott bike in the air and let it crash down while pointing ahead to Gerdemann.
# 1 - he gets a flat earlier in the Stage...

# 2 -running to the finish for 5th place...

# 3 - getting ready for "airborne" action...

# 4 - The Addict on the fly...

# 5 - still flying...

# 6 - a pilot-less Scott Addict...

# 7 - going "solo" across the line...

# 8 - complaining starts...

# 9 - "Linus, WTF?"...

# 10 - (whining) "he started it, I'm hurt, Scott Addicts actually fly really well"

  1. Doesn't that bike cost over $12,000.00 dollars? No respect for his addict.
