Or he suffers a lot to get over hills when he knows he can win.Fetisoff said:Hesjedal will get the pink tomorrow anyway. As for Cav - I guess it's
a - He's the current world champ
b - has no problem getting over some hills when has a chance to win
c - finished behind Andrea Guardini today
In general - the way he rides these stages. Compare that to Andre Greipel for example
OK, I can live with that.Caruut said:Or he suffers a lot to get over hills when he knows he can win.
it was classified as a stage categoria c), that's the 3rd hightest out of 4 categories for road stages in this giro. Only the stages in the high mountains (and the timetrials, which are categoria e) ) have a higher percentageprofff said:imho, chapeau to cav: he probably is still paying the price of the fall of two days ago, today was an hard day, very hot with 2500m elevation: time limit within 10% was difficult to made, today stage deserved a higher % , today it was more a mountain stage

I dont think that any sprinter will survive but just curious about it![]()
So people can lose about an hour to survive in Stelvio (I think the time will be around 7 hours) I dont think that Cavendish can still do it but maybe Goss can survivesearch said:it's 15%, 25% for the timetrial
Cav had a pretty nasty fall a few days ago don't forget, and said he felt awful all yesterday. Also his hot girlfriend turned up yesterday, so you know.Fetisoff said:OK, I can live with that.
However to me that still doesn't justify him finishing in a group behind a guy who can't get over a speed bump if his life depended on it, and within 30 seconds of missing the time limit
Yeah, and he's a professional cyclist, so you know.hatcher said:Cav had a pretty nasty fall a few days ago don't forget, and said he felt awful all yesterday. Also his hot girlfriend turned up yesterday, so you know.
Well, he must have felt good enough to win stage 5.hatcher said:Cav had a pretty nasty fall a few days ago don't forget, and said he felt awful all yesterday. Also his hot girlfriend turned up yesterday, so you know.
Stage 5 was a heck of a lot easier than today though. That Sky didn't ride at all until the final 8k of a sprint stage says a lot about how Cav was feeling that day.Fetisoff said:Well, he must have felt good enough to win stage 5.
And oh yeah, I just hope he didn't have 5 beers when his girlfriend turned up, if you know what I mean
You've got to be joking with only 5 weeks gone since the birth of their daughter.hatcher said:Also his hot girlfriend turned up yesterday, so you know.
Didn't she pose nude, while being pregnant with her first child as well?El Pistolero said:Peta Todd is media horny. I've seen her more on TV after races already then Cav during a bike race.
Good pick ( congrats ).jens_attacks said:vs rubiano
i'd say
So she's lost some hotness. She needs to lose a lot of hotness to stop being hot.Boardslide said:You've got to be joking with only 5 weeks gone since the birth of their daughter.
I guess you are not the father of a child? And certainly not the mother.Caruut said:So she's lost some hotness. She needs to lose a lot of hotness to stop being hot.

They removed bonifications rememberEl Pistolero said:I know a lot of people who don't understand why Cavendish can't win the Tour.Even Belgians.
