Poor matthews..

Did he abandoned?

 

[roundabout]

I guess Scarponi may be serious about taking his ball and going home to prepare to fail at the Tour

 

[Yingge]

Thanks for the link.

Did he abandoned?

Looks like he had a heavy fall. Still going, but seems to be a lot of skin lost on the right hip

Yeah, I saw his injuries earlier. Looked really nasty I must say. Can be fun doing a mountain with that hip.

 

[Arredondo]

Kruiswijk abandon.

The guy is just so unlucky

"Yesterday he was wearing the pink jersey, today he's just got a pink backside."

Funny stuff from Sean Kelly.

 

[Walkman]

Wow!! Beautiful, just beautiful pictures right now!

Cadel wants ro win in maglia rosa

 

[dlwssonic]

I hope bmc will back off on the climb. They have no reason to chase and need to save manpower as much as possible for the third week

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Go BMC! Cadel "The Cannibal" Evans wants this.

 

[Butterhead]

I just got back, wtf is going on? why are BMC pushing?

 

[Walkman]

Cadel wants ro win in maglia rosa

Yeah, I was wondering why they would chase?! I can only assume that Cadel is feeling great, otherwise it would be really weird.

 

[Yingge]

Wow!! Beautiful, just beautiful pictures right now!

Yes, love that long looping descent.

 

[Butterhead]

BET!! He´s not gonna win this.

 

[jens_attacks]

3 minutes at the start of the climb shoild
be enough for breakaway

thank you jens for the info

 

[Walkman]

Yes, love that long looping descent.

Indeed, cycling can be damn beautiful!
Would love to ride there myself!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Evans is probably thinking he can win the stage?

 

[GuyIncognito]

Wait, there are people here who expect gaps today??

I mean sure it's possible, but....it would be a big surprise. I mean, the climb is **** easy

 

[Butterhead]

3 minutes at the start of the climb shoild
be enough for breakaway

Totally depends on how and who rides in the peloton.

 

[murali]

i think they are setting pace to ensure that no one attacks.

a defensive move.

Aru has mechanical.
