A couple of seasons ago a football pundit coined the phrase 'bounce-backability'. Butchering of the english language aside, it was a term that made sense in the sporting arena. Michele Scarponi suffered badly yesterday in the mountains but today won stage 6 as the only surviver of an early breakaway. With a chasing peloton hitting speeds exceeding 90kph on possibly the fastest last 40km of stage racing i've witnessed , he dug deep to hold on and win by 32 seconds. Classic bounce-backability for all to enjoy.
