[Parrulo]

Andy looking uncertain. Good news for Samu.

 

[The Barb]

Peloton has backed off .... GO SAMMY!!!!

 

[The Hitch]

Samu rides away from Gilbert.

Revenge from GDL 2009. Take that El Pistrollero

 

[Carl0880]

apparently Samuel Sanchez is not a prerace favorite according to Sherwin since he said all prerace favorites are in the pack

LEVI ATTACKS!!

Just kidding.

omg lol i think my heart stopped. that was really funny.

in all seriousness, if levi is anywhere near the front, shouldn't he be slipping back to help the team leader?

Andy looking uncertain. Good news for Samu.

Yeah unless one of the big names goes soon it looks like Samu might get back at least a minute today as no-one dares to attack or set the pace.

Contador doesn't give chase to Sanchez. Leopard doesn't want to use Frank or Andy. Sanchez wins?

 

[kurtinsc]

again, for you to compare your life to mine when you know nothing of my life or my past (hint, been where you are) is more revealing than you know. Sorry that your life didn't turn out the way you planned, but stop taking it out on me.

go away you two! Take it to pm's!

No need for Andy to attack. He just needs to follow.

 

[LarsAU]

Basso plotting...

 

[Highlander]

The peloton has really shrunk now, but there is still a lot of riders. I'm guessing that none of the GC contenders will go before the final 5k. The great thing is that Tommy V has a very good chance of staying in yellow for another day.

 

[Ferminal]

Basso looks like he's given the order.

 

[thrawn]

Here comes Szmyd. Woohoo!

 

[brollebol]

Go Szmyd!!!!

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Basso NOT going backwards!

 

[ericthesportsman6]

Here goes Szymd!!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Sanchez is wasting energy

He should have been slipstreaming in Leopard Group. Instead hes doing a Mosquera Alto de Cottobello- killing himself for little seconds.

no this is a good move, if he wants to podium he has to take risks...


YESSSS SZMYD HERE WE GO
