95th Ronde van Vlaanderen - April 3 2011

[ingsve]

Well, it's not like Garmin has the most riders there. When he said it BMC were still riding with at least 4 riders.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

BMC blown already? That went nowhere.

It is sad that there riding for aggressively will likely cost them a podium and that goes for teams like sky etc also.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Time for a name change to Charmin-Cervelo.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

I blame D_T for jinxing the rain.

Hah. Fair enough.

Peloton at 50 seconds. Is there a glimmer of hope?

 

[luckyboy]

wha wha what?? I thought he was bad mouthing him, i must have misunderstood

He said that why should they work - if Hushovd went to work, he would be spent up and wouldn't get a chance for a podium.

Is Hushovd really the only Garmin guy there?!

btw I'm really glad that Garmin are failing.

 

[UpTheRoad]

Pozzato has been on the front a few times in this race, he is actually doing something for a change to be fair to him.

Fair enough. I retract my statement about PP. LL is already checking out the Garmin kit, though.

 

[ak-zaaf]

I blame D_T for jinxing the rain.

Same scenario, bigger gap.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Nah, saying that he was right to ride for the podium instead of trying to beat Canc

I see, i wondered why harmon was making sense. lame fool.

 

[The Hitch]

Such a shame that breakaway group got between Canc and Boonen as Boonen was following Canc. I think he could have at least sucked Canc for a few k like las year and got a podium from it.

 

[Kellys Big Sprocket]

Thats very interesting what Wilf Peeters has just said to his boy

 

[Jamsque]

Gap down to 50 seconds. I agree that Canc is resting a little so he can blow Chavanel out of gis wheel.

 

[ak-zaaf]

We need El Pistolero to egg the Garmin car here.

 

[superconfex]

Come on chav

 

[luckyboy]

49 secs now.!!

 

[rghysens]

cancellara easing a bit before his final acceleration

 

[roundabout]

Pfft, as good as he is Cancellara is just one rider.

 

[ExRower]

go Chav!! MuuR!

 

[Cobblestones]

The guy who was supposed to throw beer at Cance, should throw it at the Garmin team car instead.

 

[craig1985]

How many euros have FDJ just received to go to the front?

 

[Moondance]

42 seconds.... Wont be any time for funny business between The Canc and Chavanel should it come to it.

 

[ak-zaaf]

32 secs?
wtf?

26....

 

[thrawn]

Gap down to 30.

 

[luckyboy]

Cmon cmon drag them back!

Maybe if they brought Cance back too early, he could just rest and go again. Waiting and bringing him back late would mean he's tired.

 

[benpounder]

His sponsors should be embarrassed right now.

I know that this former fan and supporter is damn pissed (and not in the British sense)...

 

[craig1985]

26 seconds!
