2013 Santos Tour Down Under Stage 4: Modbury -> Tanunda, 127km

What a joke this race. Parked cars all aver the placed in last few kms and they gave them WT license. My local crit is better organized and safer than TDU. Shame ....

Which means you local crit is better organised than the Giro from 2009 where the same thing occurred

True, but the cars did not cause the accidents.

No barriers is the actual problem.

What a joke of a comment.

And you're basing this on? Twitter? An online forum?

Stick to your little fantasy games champ.

Hmmm, I just saw there were a lot of time differences for a flat stage, 'guess it's due to the crashes people are talking about. Sucks for Kelderman, losing 1:42 while he wasn't too far behind in the GC.

Also sucks for my cq team, having picked Kelderman and Morton, who both wern't too far behind on GC, but lost time in this flat stage.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Keldermans time loss has be neutralized in the GC:

1 Geraint THOMAS GBR SKY 12:59:09
2 Tom Jelte SLAGTER NED BLA +5
3 Javier MORENO BAZAN ESP MOV +6
4 Ben HERMANS BEL RLT +8
5 Gorka IZAGUIRRE INSAUSTI ESP EUS +15
6 Jon IZAGUIRRE INSAUSTI ESP EUS +15
7 Jack BAUER NZL GRS +15
8 Tiago MACHADO POR RLT +15
9 Adam HANSEN AUS LTB +15
10 George BENNETT NZL RLT +15
11 Daniele PIETROPOLLI ITA LAM +15
12 Jussi VEIKKANEN FIN FDJ +15
13 Wilco KELDERMAN NED BLA +15
14 Kenny ELISSONDE FRA FDJ +23
15 Jose Joaquin ROJAS GIL ESP MOV +31
16 Mikael CHEREL FRA ALM +32
17 Rafael VALLS FERRI ESP VCD +32
18 Andrey KASHECHKIN KAZ AST +32
19 Serge PAUWELS BEL OPQ +32
20 Chris Anker SÖRENSEN DEN TST +32

A Blanco 1-2 is on the cards.

Dunno, depends if Kelderman got hurt or not. He falls even more than Gesink, unbelievable this guy. He should change his name to Keldermaar

farrar's crashes are more than his wins
