I say a Thomas Dekker avatar for La Fleur

Surely the Henao and the Sevilla back in the peloton will make sure the Henao and the Sevilla up in the break gets enough time!
But of course they're up against two-times Danielson, two-times Van Garderen and two-times Mancebo...

I had a feeling this stage was going to shake things up.

The large chase looks disorganized.

Shack and Gobernacion seem quite organized.

 

[Jamsque]

So the GC is down to five men after one stage, and realistically Anthony has no chance. I think the question is if Levi can take 30/40 seconds in the ITT and hang on in the mountains. I can't see him dropping Henao.

 

[jobiwan]

Anthony hasn't had to do any work since he's been caught.
Levi and Sevilla could possibly take the race lead with bonus seconds at the finish.

But I think Jani will win the stage. Of course, Henao has looked great too!

Surely a bit late? The gap was 1 min when we I kinda proposed it. Now you come back to me 20mins later with 10km to go and 2mins the difference .

I'll wait for a Kittel bet to get an avatar rather.

Garmin isn't even chasing. I was expecting more from them here, this is almost embarrassing.

They really want to win the sprint for second.

 

[jobiwan]

2:25 now the gap.

seems like they're already looking forward to Colorado

 

[jobiwan]

2nd group is even splitting up, due to the mighty power of Bissell!

Haha you are pathetic. I said wanna bet the peloton doesn't come back? That was right after they got to the valley.
You said sure...

Don't back out now.

 

[Mellow Velo]

3 minutes at the finish and at the end of the first road stage, there will be 4 men left in contention for the GC.

 

[jobiwan]

How did they go from 10 km to 5 km in 2 minutes???

 

[jobiwan]

2:31 now the gap. 4.5 kilometers to go.
Levi on the front, now Henao.

 

[jobiwan]

Anthony has done ZERO work in this group (Not that he had to)

He could well win the stage.

 

[jsem94]

How did they go from 10 km to 5 km in 2 minutes???

The chasing group was at 10km. The front at 5km.

 

[jobiwan]

1 kilometer to go, I think!

 

[jobiwan]

Anthony gets it!!!!!!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Antony wins!
Henao 2nd Sevilla 3rd

Shack beaten

 

[goggalor]

Nice gesture from Anthony after the line?

 

[jsem94]

Did Anthony just flip everyone off after finishing? Lookid like it hahaha


edit: Yup, he did.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

RadioShack must feel stupid. Owned by Anthony, some Colombian dude, and Oscar Sevilla

 

[ferryman]

Not a bad sprint from Henao there.

 

[jobiwan]

It all depends on how much time Leipheimer and Jani get in the time trial. But Henao and Sevilla are looking good.
