2012 Volta ao Algarve

[Hugo Koblet]

Well, hard to know what sort of job he did - the guy at 3rd wheel through the corner decided that stage.

While that might be true, I still think he showed some great speed. I actually thought he was going to win at first.

A VDB surprise would involve him getting within 2 minutes of the winning time.

Larsson? lol when is the last time he did a good TT, the guy obvious don´t have the motivation anymore.

It's hard to have the motivation when you're going on to your sixth team and at every one of them your teammates have hated you.

 

[BillytheKid]

A VDB surprise would involve him getting within 2 minutes of the winning time.

Thinking of his potential, rather than his past results.

 

[Lupetto]

Talansky Top 3 today, Porte to win overall.

Who are you talking about?

 

[BillytheKid]

Surprise, surprise?

 

[Trofinios]

Larsson? lol when is the last time he did a good TT, the guy obvious don´t have the motivation anymore.

Well, he is on a new team and he has said that he will try hard to get on the podium in the Olympics (2th place in 2008). He is here to do a good result on the time trial, and I think he will. Second place? Maybe a bit high, but since I'm swedish...

 

[Euskaltel!]

How many KM before Wiggo catches Roche?

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

How many KM before Wiggo catches Roche?

Whoops !

 

[BillytheKid]

Who are you talking about?

Your right. He's had some ITT results.... VDB!

 

[Trofinios]

Stef Clement is out on the course. Could get a good time.

Well that´s my point, he said that many times and always disappoint both the team and himself, but let´s see if he can find new motivation in the new team, he sure as hell didn´t deliver on Saxo bank for a long time.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Any idea if the coverage will have time checks, or am I better off just reading the result at 5pm?
