OK, maybe conquers isn't the right word. But he made it!

He finished the famed stage 136th, only ... um ... er .... 42:19 behind
winner
Iban Mayo, the spanish freak. Overall, our man Mazzoleni is 112th, 53:41
behind
the maillot jaune. However, as a bit of good news, he's tied with George
Hincapie in the King of the Mountains competition with seven points! Forza
Mazzoleni!

Look. You can make fun of Mazzoleni as much as you like. But he's out
there, gutting it out, doing what's best for the team, and looking good
doing it.

He's already won the race he was going for this year (the Tour de
Reves), so it's only fair that, like Lance working for Heras at the
Vuelta, Mazzoleni should provide a little domestic help now.
