2011 TDF: Stage 19 - Modane - Alpe-dÂ’Huez

[luckyboy]

Is Evans even going to work? If Andy keeps Contador pegged at a minute he probably doesn't need to. He should pounce for seconds with 1km to go though.

Yes!! Andy won't hang on after all the work he's done.

 

[No_Balls]

Samu catching up! Friends become rivals?

I think somehow Samu will gift Alberto this one, if that is whats suppose to happen.

now- call me idealistic- but AC has 1 minute with 5k to go...... can he pull back 2-1/2 by the end of the stage?

 

[Grayguard]

Finally a fun stage!!!!!!!

Ehh?

 

[Thomsena]

Explain to me why there are any dutch people on that mountain? Disgrace.

 

[The Hitch]

Alpe is disapointing. Its all well and good having Contador a minute up front but whats with the GC battle.

 

[Duncan22]

if cadel has anything left he needs to go sometime to ensure he gets the time back on andy in the tt.

 

[goggalor]

Fans are mental. WTF. Idiots.

 

[Maxiton]

OMG, this is amazing. Contador could still win this Tour! Or Cadel. Or . . . .

 

[Alpe d'Huez]

now- call me idealistic- but AC has 1 minute with 5k to go...... can he pull back 2-1/2 by the end of the stage?

No, but he can sure try!

 

[personal]

Schlecks must make a choice: loose to AC or to CE.

 

[Publicus]

WTH was that dude spraying in AC's face?

 

[Mellow Velo]

I'm am amazed at the 2 Schlecks simply riding tempo in front of Evans.
Seems to me they are more concerned about keeping Frank on the podium than they are in winning this race.

Schlecks must make a choice: loose to AC or to CE.

Exactly.

 

[Parrulo]

samu catching up to contador?

 

[luckyboy]

WTH was that dude spraying in AC's face?

That guy dressed as a surgeon

 

[pfinn10]

WTH was that dude spraying in AC's face?

I think he was doing a fake interview?

 

[No_Balls]

now- call me idealistic- but AC has 1 minute with 5k to go...... can he pull back 2-1/2 by the end of the stage?

Wont happen unless the others bonks completly.

 

[scullster46]

gap looks to be growing a little again. up to 1:05

 

[Ragerod]

This. Is. Awesome.

But the fans are very, very annoying.

 

[MartinGT]

Why dont the French employ the army to stop the mongs like the Italians do in the Giro?

 

[mr. tibbs]

I really really hate cycling fans.

 

[goggalor]

This is not good. Wonder what the average IQ is on Alpe d'Huez today.

Alpe is disapointing. Its all well and good having Contador a minute up front but whats with the GC battle.

It seems that yesterday's Schleck tactics were just an anomaly and that they truly do suck.

 

[Escarabajo]

And I thought we had crazy people in Colombia!

These fans are crazy!

 

[spalco]

shut the **** up and attack, Andy.
