gilbert: "wake up."

 

[Netserk]

No motorbike pictures temporarily or for the whole stage?

 

[murali]

Es were sounding like it could be the whole stage.

 

[Cyivel]

Get the feeling this will be like stage 14 of the Giro.

 

[Afrank]

I got up early for nothing! Really hope it's not the whole stage.

 

[murali]

i m getting ****ed off with the vuelta folks. they don't give feed in such an important stage. they could have atleast arranged for a low quality feed from the main summit.

what happened in tht stage? i was travelling on tht stage

 

[The Hitch]

Yes

Watts

I guess Nibali would like that

No pictures just watching a camera at the finish line to see who was leading in the last few hundred meters, ES are playing Watts so it's begun already!

 

[burning]

Es is switching to Watts atm, it looks really bad

 

[The Hitch]

Get the feeling this will be like stage 14 of the Giro.

This is a proper stage though.

Also Id rather it was like stage 14 of that giro than stage 19 and 20

I don't get the point with the watching Envalira live. It's a climb as interesting as Sierra Nevada through the main road (2011) with the added bonus that this isn't even the stage finish. It must be because of the pointless Txurruka attack

 

[Netserk]

Port de Envalira (HC) mountain result:

1. Philippe Gilbert (51) - 20 points
2. Luis Leon Sanchez (46) - 15 points
3. Daniele Ratto (77) - 10 points
4. Steve Chainel (14) - 6 points
5. Johannes Fröhlinger (23) - 4 points
6. Amets Txurruka (68) - 2 points

[Geraint Too Fast]

[Broth3r]

Well, at least Watts is always good.

So the winner today will win the worlds?

Sounds promising for Philbert.

 

[Parrulo]

Brussels Cycling Classic it is then...

Pretty much

If Nibali won the Vuelta and Lombardia and Cancellara won the Worlds, who would win velo d'or, Froome, Canc or Nibali?

 

[Afrank]

If Nibali won the Vuelta and Lombardia and Cancellara won the Worlds, who would win velo d'or, Froome, Canc or Nibali?

Froome, cause he won French races.

Frohlinger seems unlikely. Brown maybe ?

 

[Netserk]

If Nibali won the Vuelta and Lombardia and Cancellara won the Worlds, who would win velo d'or, Froome, Canc or Nibali?

Canc, but it'd be close. Nibs 2nd.
