Rabottini's king of the mountains outfit is all kinds of awesome.

Agreed, those shorts are very cool.

 

[Pharazon]

cavendish back in the peloton

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

Euskaltel training their TTT.

 

[vcampbell]

Cavendish is back.

 

[hatcher]

Another push for Cav. For shame.

 

[Havetts]

impossible. they are more than 3 minutes down on the peloton and they aren't slowing down clearly. I think nieve and de gendt will try on duran for sure

And cav has came back.. :')

 

[mcassidy3]

cavendish back in the peloton

he was 4 minutes behind 5 mins ago, surely not?

 

[mcassidy3]

Another push for Cav. For shame.

Must have some running shoes to push him down the hill

 

[Frosty]

he was 4 minutes behind 5 mins ago, surely not?

Dont think there had been any update on the time gap for a long time.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

he was 4 minutes behind 5 mins ago, surely not?

Cavendish is such a cheater. Using teleportation to get back in the peloton. Pfff. Lame!

 

[hatcher]

he was 4 minutes behind 5 mins ago, surely not?

Regular visitors to the bus tend to become excellent on descents.

 

[fluffkitten]

Very orange front to the peleton.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

And cav has came back.. :')

clealry the tracker time was wrong then

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Bets on the position of the best carrot today then? I'll take 17th

 

[Bernie's eyesore]

Cav must have been in the helicopter again.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

clealry the tracker time was wrong then

No, the time tracker was exactly correct as at the top of the first climb. 35km later the gap has been made back.

it posted the same gap while in downhil

 

[Boardslide]

Cav & Bernie have always been good decenders, they have always said this is how they can make up time on lumpy days after being dropped.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

it posted the same gap while in downhil

Yup, they provided the last available gap as per the TV, I thought that was relatively clear to everyone.

Regardless we've just see making 3 minutes back on a downhill is doable for the bus, so some of us have learnt something.

 

[Publicus]

Who plssed off the carrots???

EDIT: Not that I'm complaining.

 

[will10]

Fair play to Euskaltel for starting the hostilities early. Can't see them pulling anything off but chapeau nonetheless

 

[FellOff]

Looks like the breakaway is getting Tangoed

 

[Pharazon]

has Bos ever finished a GT?

 

[will10]

Bike change for Signore Azzurra

 

[will10]

has Bos ever finished a GT?

No but I seem to remember him getting very close to finishing the Vuelta with Cervelo and then crashing in the TT
