Dunno how much energy Horner's gonna have left for the final climb up mt.Baldy.. They seem to have to go all out to maintain the 1:50 gap..

Lol the commentators say 'Robert hesink' it's 'Robert Gesink' haha
Americans seem to have a hard time with the letter 'G' :)

Voigt will surely have a hard time. But I think Horner is saving some energy in reserve.

Yea I hope his legs will be fresh enough for Baldy.

Spectacular as this move is, I'm afraid it will fail spectacularly... The only chance is Horner reaching the last climb with a sizeable advantage and then absolutely destroying it.

Man, there sure are a lot of dogs in the crowd in Ontario. Mostly Pit Bulls and Bulldogs from what we can see. Let's hope none run out into the road.

They are riding near Fontucky, meth labs, pit bulls, tattoos, you name it. I'm not being fair to the other 98% living out there, but let's just say there's an undesirable element out there because living is pretty cheap and hot and smoggy compared to other areas of L.A.

The sun reflected off Horner's bald head and temporarily blinded the peloton, allowing him to get away. And caused a fire at the same time.

Hope he starts another in the last 5k. Story of Jens getting a bee sting on the lip during the ITT. The bee got stuck. He ate it. :D

Simply calling him Crash Bandicoot would solve that problem right away.
