2013 Vuelta a España, Stage 5: Sober → Lago de Sanabria (174 km)

[Catwhoorg]

Farrer beat Eddie ?

That just ain't right.

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Mollema almost managed to keep his run of top 10's going.

was there any illegal touch b/w richeze and meersman?

 

[Pricey_sky]

Nice win for the Greenedge boys, they are a really nice group of guys and they deserved that.

 

[manafana]

1st and 3rd from me much more to form today.

 

[murali]

I've barely heard of him.

The Wiki geeks are a bit slack updating his page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Matthews_(cyclist)

he took two stages in tour of utah. he is in his best form now. This stage win was more of a when than an if.

Gilbert must have confused his shirt with Argos'. That was an embarassing attack and poor lead out at the same time.

Matthews is Australian, so HIS wiki geek must be sleeping

thanks (*minimum characters*)

He got about one length gap on Sinkeldam or whoever it was. Can't see him getting a win this year unless he's peaking for Franco Belge or something.

Think he's getting desperate. It would be extremely embarrassing if he didn't manage a win in his world champs kit!

Gilbert has been making a series of mistakes in sprints this year.

this time, he attacked too early. Instead of following mathews or meersman, he tried to attack the bunch. frustrating!!!!!

 

[Asturiano]

Beautiful place, isnt it?.

 

[murali]

is there any issue with the results?


cq hasn't updated yet

CQ are usually slow, I find that procyclingstats is almost always faster

Have we really lost 10 riders on that stage? Results not yet complete. I know we lost one of the Orica's (Sulzberger??) with a broken collar bone.

CQ is "manually" updated.

 

[fraserhughes]

Edet moves to second position in mountains classification with 8 pts, 3 pts behind roche.

What is the order of preference on jerseys?

Roche leads mountains and combined. So either Edet will be in the mountains jersey or Horner in combined tomorrow.

Looks like I picked the right sprinter for the CQ game. Nice win for Matthews, glad to finally see him being given the chances and results he deserves.

I think they should replace Goss with Matthews.

 

[winkybiker]

Farrar. they still belive in farrar

Yeah, I know. What's up with that?

 

[Afrank]

I think they should replace Goss with Matthews.

I can't agree with that more.
