2013 Tour of Qatar (3rd-8th February), 2.HC

[burning]

I never thought of this outcome 30 kms ago

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

All back together shortly.

Thanks to all the cycling Jedi masters who told me that would never happen - you really put me in my place.

you said the 2nd group should've waited on the third group and then get back. so you are relaly the last oen to talk big here as you were the one wrong

can't they make a turn straight into the crosswinds?
headwind is so boring.

Under my tactic, they would have got to the front fine.

Unde yours they all should have given up 60km ago because eschelons are a magical form of breakaway which never ever get caught.

Just give it up you boring twerp. I really am sick of people around here giving it the big one in a very rude manner when they are simply wrong.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Rast, Bookwalter and Hinault with 30 secs already

Hinault = Elmiger

 

[BlenJones2]

45 seconds

 

[postmanhat]

Gap going out again to Cavendish. I suppose there's no point in the other teams supporting Omega now

 

[jens_attacks]

well i think they won't catch them maybe

42 sec under the bridge

sky and omega should hammer it now

 

[Hugo Koblet]

No Argos guys to help Degenkolb?

where did I say that?

I only said the 2nd group shouldn't be waiting for the third one to get back and who was right again...

The point would be to not give the GC away.

Irrational behaviour from Sky, basically building in old information about the now defunct eschelons to decide they don't want to help OPQS when the GC is riding away 45 seconds in front.

 

[BlenJones2]

sky look like they're saving it really late and leaving it to omega. Will eisel get a couple of bonus seconds for the intermediate?

 

[Ferminal]

Bit of a cockup from Argos and Sky if this doesn't come back. Not too trusting in the time gap though.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Here comes the chase.. Too late though?

 

[jens_attacks]

gap coming down now.but it' still doable

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

90 degree turn at 550m to go on this one.

I don't think it'll come back but it is possible.

 

[hrotha]

Elmidger

Al Jazeera are breaking off from an Al Qaeda mega mix for 2 hours from 1130 UK time.

You do realise that Al Jazeera has often been controversial in the Middle East for its willingness to broadcast dissenting viewpoints and attempt to be a fair and balanced news station?

Broadcast a couple of Bin Laden videos and they're now seen as a mouthpiece for Islamic fundamentalism in the West. Sad really, they're one of the world's better news sources for impartiality.

I must congratulate on waterloo for spreading the most amounts of bull**** in this topic

Strange Sky as well not doing much. Maybe they were waiting till Omega were completely blown

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

3 very strong rouleurs in front and everyone is tired

 

[Ferminal]

Nice catch.

 

[jens_attacks]

what a complete fail from the peloton

 

[Ferminal]

Good work by BMC to make sure the group behind their stage winner is st.
