2013 Criterium International

[LaFlorecita]

Obvious duck is obvious.

(not obvious, but I can think of other combos, a few months ago, where this sort of manouever would be jumped on with very few people willing to take it at face value).

Okay

A lot of people are sick at the moment though, I won't be surprised to see J Cantwell also pull out since he also has the flu

Probably something to do with Sky? Or Mark Cavendish.

LL Sanchez has been replaced by Mollema, BTW. I wonder if we'll see LL race this season.

This is contador we are talking about, not Schleck. Huge difference

As Flo says, a lot of sick riders atm due to the bad weather. Cantwell and Breschel missed out on DDV due to illness

 

[Jelantik]

Hmm... looks like we'll be showered with sky domination performance. Froome, Porte, Sitsou 1-2-3..might as well. It's going to be walk in the park for Froome.

I hope so, a class act on the bike.

Team BMC for Critérium International: Brent Bookwalter (USA), Cadel Evans (Aus), Mathias Frank (Swi), Sebastian Lander (Den), Amaël Moinard (Fra), Dominik Nerz (Ger) and Tejay van Garderen (USA).

 

[greenedge]

Atapuma, Taaramae and Kelderman could also challenge the likes of Evans, TJVG, Rolland, Talansky Fedrigo, Porte and Froome.

It is going to be bodily blows. I even don't know who it's reasonable to support. Maybe, Evans? He can not podium the Tour sadly, but winning Criterium Internacional, why not?

You could support Froome, as you do most of the time

Would make sense, theirs huge demand for cycling in the UK right now and it needs a big race

Tomorrow's stage is, I think. Isn't that the same every year?

 

[wirral]

The first stage should be finishing about now.

 

[wirral]

4 km left. The attack is being reeled in.

 

[wirral]

The break is caught at the 2 km mark.

An Fdj rider goes for a long one, followed by a Sojasun.
