Tappa 13 Giro d'Italia 2013
The two major contenders
Found illness race enders
Wiggo and Ryder
have abandoned the struggle
illness gave them too much trouble
The psychology of being
number one
is sometimes not all that much fun
They started the race in perfect
shape
Winning only contemplate
Expectations weighing heavy
The champions' tax was levied
Supermen but human in the end
They must go home and try to mend
Uran Uran will try for Sky
I like his name
I like the guy
He must enjoy this fateful turn
Allowing him laurels to earn
Ryders' ride was just plain sad
His hopes dashed by feeling bad
Double proof that all can see
Championship can bring tragedy
Last year this happened to Cadel
I really hope he remains well
Today's stage is long and flat
Mark Cavandish is up for that
Looking for stage win one hundred and one
For him being champion is still fun
The sun is shining tentatively
A welcome sight for all to see
This stage is the longest
We now have a climb
Boem sets a sturdy pace
Mark C hangs in with grace
Vini Fantini sets the time
25 miles 'til the finish line
Mark seems strong on the incline
Quick Step begin their bell to chime
In the saddle for 200 miles plus
Riders' strength amazes us
Endurance and focus off the charts
They also must have giant hearts
Not speaking just of cardio
A mighty love must make them go
All the way to Cherasco
An attack by Bongiorno
From the Italians lots of brio
Omega Pharma Quick Step
Marks' ambitions they protect
A late race break nine men strong
Would like to sing a different song
Lastras works with the wisdom of age
Oh, would he love to win this stage!
Niboli has maintained his cool
Can Quick Step take this break to school?
Katushas' Caruso attacks from the break
Mark is alone but in great shape
He wins by a hair and celebrates
His climbing and sprinting both first rate!
Mark admits to being tired
For being human he won't be fired
