As the title implies, today's stage was about climbing. This six man break is turning on to the second of five catagorized climbs. Leading them up the Avaglio climb was yet another rider from Androni-Giocattoli, Francesco Gavazzi. Joining the Italian, was Matteo Montaguti (Ag2r La Mondiale), Jacopo Musca (Wilier Triestina), Enrico Barbin (Bardiani CSF), Mads Pedersen (Trek-Segafredo) and his teammate, Laurent Didier. The group managed to put six minutes into the peloton, not that it is enough time considering just how tough the second half of stage 14 is.
