2013 Tour of California: Stage 2: Murrieta - Palm Springs (199 Km)

[the sceptic]

these colombian climbers are good

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

couldn't agree more.

:d

............

 

[UselessToo]

Acevedo, what a beast!

 

[webvan]

Nice surge but stalling now...

Found a second wind evidently!

 

[maxmartin]

Roger keep watching powermeter, SKY trick?

 

[maxmartin]

TJ dropped

 

[burning]

He really give it all, great job

 

[maltiv]

Woah, he didn't even manage to pull out of his pedal at the finish line. Those guys are absolutely exhausted. Brutal.

 

[brilleaben]

Real men here.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Frank maybe could've distanced Tejay if he didnt have to do all the work. Very impressive performance by him!

 

[webvan]

So when is Acevedo coming to Europe ?

 

[jaylew]

Was that Craddock crossing?

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Every rider is being carried away after crossing the line. Never seen this before.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

How is Acevedos timetrialing?

pretty good, especially in harder itt's see gila where he only lost 37 seconds to winner zirbel

 

[Aristarchus]

We've been witness to some suffering today, folks. Well done, Acevedo

 

[infeXio]

Any chance of Acevedo keeping the lead through the timetrial as well? (providing no further differences will be made beforehand, of course)
I have barely even heard of loads of these riders from the non WT-teams, so my knowledge in that department is rather limited

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Not a single rider can even hold the bike upright after crossing.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Westra with Andy

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

this again prooves that colombian climbing is of the highets level in the world. acevedo a good rider in colombia, but not top destroys here. any european team should try and get some colombian riders, because they are amazing. that kick acevedo has. no european can do that

 

[Inquitus]

pretty good, especially in harder itt's see gila where he only lost 37 seconds to winner zirbel

Aye but he lost 13 secs to Deighnan in the ITT, and the race on the Queen stage, Monster of the Gila.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

This is ridiculous carnage. Good grief.

 

[maltiv]

Never seen anything like this. Almost every rider crossing the finish line is about to feint. Insane.

 

[webvan]

40+d Celsius + 10% over 6km = Zoncolan ! Don't remember seeing another arrival like that...

 

[One Eyed Aussie]

Just saw the end of the stage......Wow....carnage..........respect to all the riders that finish today.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Acevedo just brilliant. Magnificent effort.

Whoa, NetApp rider looks dead to the world.
