It was a severe day for the Czech rider from HTC-Highroad team in the 14th stage of the Giro d´Italia. František Raboň eventually finished the stage atop Monte Zoncolan and he is going to continue in the race.

“I got dropped on the first two climbs. It was hell, I can feel the work I have done up until now in my legs. I was three minutes behind the pack and at one point, I thought it was over . I was riding my own time trial for 40km, I took chances on downhills and luckily I got across but it was brutal,” Raboň said after the hard stage. “Then I began to feel better and if I survive tomorrow´s stage then everything could be fine”, Franky added.

Results:
Stage 14: Lienz - Monte Zoncolan (210 km):
1st Anton (Spa/Euskaltel-Euskadi) 5:04:26, 2nd Contador (Spa/Saxo Bank Sungard) -33, 3rd Nibali t./Liquigas-Cannondale) -40, 4th Scarponi (Ita/Lampre - ISD) -1:11, 5th Menshov (Rus/Geox-TMC) -1:21, 6th Gadret (Fra/AG2R La Mondiale) -1:38, ...164th Raboň (HTC-Highroad) -21:10.

Čau Franto, super výkon!! Snad jsem Ti ty nohy trochu pomohl rozjet i já když jsem Tě kus potlačil na Zoncolanu
Zdravím a přeju hodně štěstí v dalších závodech.
