damn..too late. Again.

Nice going by the colombians!
Gesink not good enough for the Vuelta yet. Mollema even further. Hmm...

 

[jens_attacks]

What did he say?

nothing.the usual after dropping the flowers into the crowd,simulate dropping the 10 litres of wine bottle into the crowd joke

sky will kill saxo in the mountains.
of course for alberto,that doesn't matter.

So far the only Vuelta contender who's shown good form is Anton. (or Henao if he rides)
The Clasica will show us who's really doing well, so just wait for another week to draw your conclusions please.

Then again, I'm sure they'll crash in the Vuelta so it doesn't matter anyway .

 

[Escarabajo]

Any videos of the stage?

Thanks.

 

[profff]

anybody making any joke about the performance of colombian when the road goes up?
where are all the people that at the beginning of the year were having fun when somebody was saying that the young colombians were going to blow up the peloton in a couple of years?
give the escarabajos some time and you will see

Sky are planning to go with the Vuelta a Burgos squad pretty much, with Froome and Nordhaug coming in for Martinelli.

Though Swift and Uran did abandon...

Uran did an absolutely massive turn to set up Henao's attack on the final climb, then exploded in dramatic fashion. Only Chaves and Henao could follow. He must have just decided it wasn't worth riding to the finish.

henao clearly wanted chavez to win. he even waited on him after accelerating and chavez dropping. he probably realizes how much coldeportes needs a win.

great win though. can't wait for vuelta. henao is stronger now than in giro. he also rode increidbly in poland and he's usually always better in later part of season. same in colombia
