[TourOfSardinia]

Wow crowds!

 

[Parrulo]

crowds in the vuelta? liez <_<

 

[Zoncolan]

Is Froome still there for Wiggins?

 

[Ferminal]

which news?

Being isolated with no one up the road either?

Seems Froome is there though.

 

[roundabout]

Bad bad news for Wiggins.

I am quite sure Froome is still there.

 

[canyonball]

which news?

I would say the fact he lost a fair chunck of his teammates. Only froome with him?

 

[sublimit]

The hardest parts are over anyway.

I think so. No panic yet because it will all come back.

 

[cineteq]

which news?

Think about it for a moment...

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

either way it was a pretty smart move by jrod.

 

[Moondance]

And peloton is completely dead.

Sky have left. Rabo has only TGBM and Garate. Break will succeed.

luckily it is quite close to the finish of the climb so some dare devil descending can probably mean last 30km of damage limiting.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Minni Phinney gives up. Mountains are too high

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Cobo accleerates the pace

 

[Moondance]

Cobo out of nowhere starts to ride

Pretty hard too.

 

[Jamsque]

Geox pushing hard now.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Mr. Bargain doing pretty good.

 

[Ferminal]

Cobo is hurting them, ends Kohler's token effort.

 

[Ferminal]

Dropped them all, classic

 

[Moondance]

Froome cracking at the very top.

Doesn't bode well for coming days.

 

[roundabout]

Froome cracking at the very top.

I had the same thought, but #184 is Lövkvist

 

[cineteq]

Katusha has been brilliant thus far!

 

[Zoncolan]

No TV coverage for the next half hour or so, I'm afraid. If the signal was this bad on top of the mountain, it will be awful down in the valley between two mountains.

 

[meandmygitane]

Wow, this can actually develop to be the best GT this year as far as the racing goes. Despite that the parcours may not be the most exciting.

Venga!

 

[Moncoutie]

Lovkvist has been useless this season.
