2014 Giro D'Italia, stage 1: Belfast › Belfast, 21.7 km (TTT)

[GuyIncognito]

argh.. quite sure BMC would have been super close to winning this with a fit bookwalter...

Now there's definitely a guy who's far more useful in a TTT than an ITT
Out of interest, who crossed the line first?

EDIT: And for Orica too

 

[Arnout]

it was their own fault. They should have just said they were terrorists - they would have got in to the uk no problem.....

:d
.......

 

[BigMac]

wtf is wrong with you... I wonder how you will react if this happened to your chris froome

Nothing?

I could not be more indiferent to Chris Froome by the way.

 

[Jspear]

Anyone have a stream? beIN just dropped their coverage. And I pay for this type of abuse

this is working.

50 sec for Cadel over Nairito?

 

[trevim]

I think Sanchez learned the meaning of TTT today; he had that weird Euskaltel definition before

 

[ILovecycling]

Oh yeah the visa story. I hope England doesn't get visa for the Brazil world cup. Tossers.

it won't matter if they will,they are not a thread to any significant result


BMC great time!

 

[GuyIncognito]

50 sec for Cadel over Nairito?

That'll take almost a whole climb to make back, Quintana has no chance

 

[Netserk]

wtf is wrong with you... I wonder how you will react if this happened to your chris froome

Da ****? He likes Valverde. And Rui Costa.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Evans Lol!

where's ACF now?

 

[Arnout]

Lol Thomas de Gendt.

 

[martinvickers]

Well not really his home country.. what a shame though...

In cycling terms it is - Cycling Ireland is an All-Ireland body...

 

[jsem94]

YOU CAN'T DROP DE GENDT, idiots OPQS

 

[Walkman]

Great by BMC!!

To bad about Bookwalter, I think they would have won if he didn't crash, but chapeau to Orica, they did a impressive ride considering the weather conditions.

 

[GuyIncognito]

I think Sanchez learned the meaning of TTT today; he had that weird Euskaltel definition before

- "OK Samu, this is a Team Time Trial"
- "Yes, Team rest day"
- "No, time trial"
- "yes, stage 12"
- "No, today"
- "No Brent, today is stage 1, see?"

 

[BigMac]

Did anyone notice the teleception? Mind blowing.

 

[Jspear]

That'll take almost a whole climb to make back, Quintana has no chance

Quintana has a big chance to make that time up.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Quintana has a big chance to make that time up.

It was sarcasm. Notice I said "almost a whole climb"

 

[Jspear]

- "OK Samu, this is a Team Time Trial"
- "Yes, Team rest day"
- "No, time trial"
- "yes, stage 12"
- "No, today"
- "No Brent, today is stage 1, see?"

Lol!! good post.

 

[Arnout]

There are six MTF'es alone, so no problem when he is in good form.

Edit: late to the party.

 

[ILovecycling]

That'll take almost a whole climb to make back, Quintana has no chance

Still I hope Evans will be in good form,same for puro

 

[auscyclefan94]

OPQS look very fast...could beat BMC

 

[BigMac]

Omega very close.

 

[Tyre Byter]

Who is your provider ?
I'm watching the BEIN Spanish channel (on mute), they still have the cycling.

At least its better than Kirby.

Yea, they told us they were sending it over to beIN spanish so they could show some English Premier League stuff. I don't think I even get that without subscribing to a Spanish language package which I have never considered since I don't speak the language. I really HATE beIN more by the minute!

sorry....get it now...
