Aussie result wrap

From Cyclingnews...

At the Giro we have a few Aussies hanging in there, including Nick Gates, Scott Davis, Matt White, Mat Hayman and Henk Vogels. But let's face it, although they have the odd individual opportunity at times, they are supporting the big guys day to day. Basso leads, rubbing salt into Gibo's wounds in the mountains. At least Gibo is hanging in there.. but Basso is flying. Ullrich pulled out with a back pain.
