0:00.0	Welcome back to Lantern Rouge Cycling Podcast for stage 12 of Jude Italia from Modena to Viadana
0:05.1	Olio.
0:06.0	For 172 kilometers long, Benji assured me he wouldn't hear of it.
0:10.2	I tried to open up the discussion, you know, extend the podcast a little bit.
0:14.8	What sort of stages is going to be?
0:16.1	Benji said, it's a sprint.
0:17.5	Let me go to dinner.
0:18.7	And he was right.
0:20.1	We were going to have a sprint, let me go to dinner, and he was right. We were going to have a sprint today.

1:13.6	I just saw a couple of riders attacking, and I was like, okay,
1:16.4	looks like it's going to be a Bardiani, Palti-R-Ka breakaway.
