    Bruyneel has no inside info. He acts like it just to get his brand up.

    He obviously didn't had this problem yesterday (you could say it's not a real peloton which is true) and in general he doesn't really have this problem when the legs are good.

    "going for the classics" and Giro isn't really compatible.
