2015 Giro Stage 14: Treviso – Valdobbiadene 59.4 kms ITT

[Moose McKnuckles]

Aru is doing pretty well, actually.

 

[Eshnar]

AC caught Landa

 

[Red Rick]

Nothing so nice as riding a tt in apocalyptic weather for 50 minutes to see a sign that you still have 25km to go

Contador obliterating Landa

 

[Taxus4a]

Rigo is doing better now

Re:

Yeah he's going so great that he hasn't caught Landa. I think it's more that Porte and Uran are off than Contador is really on.

Landa is in sight. It took Indurain around 20 km to catch an equal TT´er to Landa by the name of Lance Armstrong in 1994.

He is doing fine.

 

[Jelantik]

that's a view for the sore eye. .kreuziger is about to catch astana rider?

 

[Rollthedice]

Tvetcov better than Porte.

Re: Re:

Seriously why is everyone ignoring the time set by Jurgen Vandenbroeck?

What's more likely? T
hat VBD and Contador are both racing out of their minds.
Or that Porte and Uran, who have both shown a lot of weakness the last 2 weeks, aren't at their best.

Two weeks ago...

Yes VBD is really good, I referred to that myself earlier on. But people are pretending this is 2009 Contador, and I'm sorry but he wouldn't have gotten himself beat by Spilak and Zakarin.

 

[DBotero]

Porte lost 4:20 to Vasil

 

[goggalor]

Dreadful stuff from Richie. Behind Viviani.

 

[the sceptic]

Uran is really awful

 

[nightingale2016]

what a cloaca of gloating this forum is lol

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Porte 41st.

 

[Popchu]

JVDB will be close to Kiryienka! He is already going faster at the moment, closing the gap. Curious what he can do the last 15 minutes.

 

[Squirbos_19]

Berto already passed Landa

 

[Jelantik]

sorry contador... catch landa... o my

 

[Eshnar]

Uran +3'10''

 

[Gigs_98]

4:20 for porte. Didn't work as expected I guess

 

[70kmph]

Porte 41st lol

 

[The Hitch]

Right, so who is next?

Konig is doing good. Porte will be a slave for him next week

 

[Arredondo]

Come on Landa. Show some balls ffs.

Re: Re:

this is Contador from 2009. full mutant.

He will be even better in July!

He won't be. Honestly I think there's a good chance he's the best GT rider in the world right now (unfortunately we haven't really had a true matchup between the current top 4 since, well ever really).

But there's no way his effort in the Giro won't affect him in the TDF. Quintana/Nibali/Froome will still have a far better preparation.

Now the fact that the will probably have this Giro wrapped up after today will help him a lot, no need to exert himself in the last week, he can just follow and have 1 explosion to show he's truly the best and conserve as much as he can.

This can be dismissed already as wishful thinking.

Re:

Don't post here often but it's disappointing to see the bile towards Porte for what seems to be no for no reason other than he races for team sky. what a bunch of gloating *** you lot can be, really reduces the quality of this board.

Have you seen the amount of whining that has gone on because of his being penalized? Porte, who seemed like a nice enough guy back in 2010-11, actually comes across in the last two years or so as pretty short-fused and self-satisfied, and the fact that he rides for Sky only exacerbates that.
