[LukeSchmid]

It was his first race after breaking his collarbone 1 month earlier.

Okay. Okay

 

[Ferminal]

Prologue (it's actually "Stage 1"!) has started hasn't it? Any early times?

Stybar will teach Spartakus a lesson.

That would be great, but don't really think so because its Spartakus.

What makes you think Stybar can TT? He's really really bad. Worst I've ever seen(style that is)

Unless you're being sarcastic of course.

 

[Sasquatch]

Castroviejo isn't in the top 10. If he was they would mention him. Even Soler was faster than him.

He surprised me in ToB though... Position was horrible indeed

 

[Ruudz0r]

Soler rode really well currently 3rd behind Larsson and Froome

 

[Oreknan]

kloden 1" worse than larsson

This is more of a prologue.
Crossers tend to rule prologues, especially hilly ones.
Stybar is an outstanding crosser.
So I think he may do good there today. But if he is as worse on bike as you say, then this prediction may be wrong.

No reason for a drama. Easy to say that someone will suck. This is one of your favorites.

I still have nightmares about his prologue in the Tour of Belgium

After 39 riders finished:
1 Van Garderen (THR) 9:50
2 Larsson (SBS) +0:08
3 Klöden (RSH) +0:09
4 Froome (SKY) +0:15
5 Soler (MOV) +0:19

 

[Ferminal]

Oh, Klöden holds the best time for the climb.

I like...

 

[dlwssonic]

lol didnt know that little spanish climber could TT. on that spanish website the yahoo translate puts george hincapie as george insistence???

 

[jens_attacks]

oh soler,so happy right now.

it seems that van garderen went pretty fast.

 

[Ferminal]

Tommy D 4th!

 

[killswitch]

Andy again with a chain (?) problem.

 

[dlwssonic]

Andy Schleck has a mechanical! but he probably doesnt care.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

oh my god, andy proovinjg again he's such a f;n idiot with equipment

 

[Ferminal]

Did he start on a road bike?

 

[Connor Pass]

I wonder did they stop the clock for Andy's FAIL!

 

[ferryman]

Deary dear how sloppy was that exchange of bikes
