oh...skybot

Watch out for Tom Bohli. He will be a serious threat in both TTs. Especially the prologue. He is one of the favorites or in fact THE favorite IMO. Many people will be surprised by his strength as he makes his first big appearance in a World Tour Time Trial.

And why the hell is Eurosport not showing this but showing the tour of turkey instead....

12th so far in the Prologue.

 

[Laplaz]

Kwiat very strong today

Bohli started out fast (5th at the intermediate) but seemed to take the descent slowly.

He was actually slower than Izagirre on the descend. Slower than Hollenstein as well.

Kwiatkowski & Hollensten rode on their TT bike, so they probably won some time in the last flat km.

Eurosport is showing a small time Tennis tournament for 6 hours here

There's probably a larger audience for a small tennis tournament than for a small cycling race, so hard to blame them. Frustrating nonetheless.

Maybe so but in the past they have cut to the cycling for 30 minutes and then back to the tennis

WTF happened to Talansky? A mechanical? How do you lose a minute in a 6-minute prologue?

 

[Jancouver]

Too bad Sagan is not here. Seems like this technical prolog is made just for him

 

[carolina]

[shalgo]

Slow time for Uran.

Just a warm-up race for him. His main target of the year is Tour of Cali

 

[Samamba]
