2013 Tour of California: Stage 7: Livermore-Mt. Diablo (146 km)

[Afrank]

Konig's celebration was a bit like Contador's @ Fuente Dé...

Full emotion, that's what I like about it.


Great performance by Craddock also, the Bontrager youngsters continue to impress me.

Leo will do very well, he's getting in very good form. TT performance was very goog for him and he's much better climber. He could even win. Top ten is within grasp.
Pitty the stage 2 loss...he said he was feeling very good, plannec to attack and out of the blue crisis came.

Good pick!

Anyone who is capable of beating the great JTL is worth keeping an eye on (Quintana, Konig).

Meersman 15th.

That says us something, doesn't it?

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Think Craddock had a mechanical

Unfortunately it wasn't enough for top ten, but whatever...great win. Shame Netapp wasn't given wildcard for Giro - they would do much more than Colombia. I'm really looking forward to Dauphine and Vuelta. Only I hope his back stays healthy.

Rogers finished 4th, same time as Tejay.

Still struggling with the power meter toy on the new bike.

They will get it in order for the Tour no doubt.

Congratulation to TJVG with a great win.

That had a bit of 2012 Tour feel to it. BMC brought a gun to a knife fight. 3rd at over 3 minutes, 10th at nearly 6.

Frank as a poor man's Froome.

now we just need somebody to bring Contador into the conversation....

Rogers looked good all the way. Good news for Saxo.

 

[manafana]

excellent ride from leopold. Surely acevedo will be on the wanted list of the big teams now

nice stage,a lot of action on the climb. konig was mighty impressive, didn't expect that

strava record beaten by around 4 minutes. some pro speed up the mt. diablo

That says us something, doesn't it?

Outside of the top-10 the result is always meaningless in California. This year maybe even outside of the top-3.

I think Frank will get his own chances in Switzerland and his form seems to be good.
