King Boonen said:Betting against Cav today wouldn't be a horrible idea.
The overall is his, it's early in the season and OPQS won't want him injured, he may just sit up if things get a bit hairy or settle for a minor place.
I still think he'll win it, just there's a better chance today someone like Guardini might sneak it from him.

Didn't see whether he just sucked or got bboxed in or something, but I expected a lot from him after he was in the front echelon in stage 1 and did great in the peloton sprint that stage. However, crappy position and a team that didn't bring him to the front made sure he never got a chance to sprint in all these stages, now he finally was at the front, but still let me down.

HiCadence said:I can see what you mean with him coming off EBH's wheel but it was a bit of a long shot to try and get Eisel on the podium on a flat stage like this with no wind would have been better to lead out EBH surely to try and take the stage?
