Astana boys have something planned. Don't see why else LLS would bother to try to stay in the favourites group.

astana week 3 bounce seems to be all in place.

is that the entire team that has made the cut? LOL!


Nibali, Aru, Tiralongo, Fuglsang, Rosa, LLS with Kangert and Lutsenko in front :D :D :D

I like how the Skytrain cooly lets other teams take over the rhythm, burn themselves out, and then just resume the grind themselves.

Movistar and Astana aren't going to beat Sky by pretending to be Sky. That helps no one, except Sky's mountain train, who can now take a nice rest.

Astana actually have serious numbers in this group. They just needed Aru with slightly better legs and they could take on Sky.
