April 30th, Tour de Romandie Stage 4 ITT: Aubonne - Signal-de-Bougy, 20.1km

[Publicus]

Nasty headwind

EDIT: Feed is back just in time for Tommy D!!!!! Where is Bro Deal?

 

[Sasquatch]

Can someone please take note of Gerdemann's time?

 

[roundabout]

Could be, although the first part is mostly climbing.

Apparemment, le vent qui s'est levé sur le parcours depuis une quinzaine de minutes désavantage les derniers partants.

And no, I don't write for them.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Martin down 36 seconds...

 

[Jamsque]

Menchov is out of it.

 

[superconfex]

millar 59th on course

 

[Ferminal]

Looks like a nice improvement by Talansky.

Martin will probably still manage 1st.

I'm surpised at Menchov and martin times

I'm not at Menchov's. I don't think he wants to go too hard this close to the Giro.

I'm not at Menchov's. I don't think he wants to go too hard this close to the Giro.

Basso's ITT here last year was a fail, IIRC.

Plus it's nothing new for Menchov, who relaxes during the Dauphine last year and then is amazing in the TdF.

 

[luckyboy]

Brajkovic looks like Praying Landis

 

[auscyclefan94]

Martin's position looks higher than usual

 

[aarnold517]

everyone's times are way slower than the first ones..did conditions change on the course? we don't know how well martin's time ultimately will be until we see how vino and cadel are going

 

[Jamsque]

There must be a headwind of some sort because all these guys are coming in way behind Porte and Zabriskie

 

[cineteq]

I'm not at Menchov's. I don't think he wants to go too hard this close to the Giro.

So where is he going to test his TT riding if he doesn't go as fast as he can so close to starting the Giro?

 

[auscyclefan94]

Pinotti looks v. good.

 

[L'arriviste]

Can someone please take note of Gerdemann's time?

28:51.91 blahblah min 10 chars.

The run home is opposite direction to first sector so they should have tailwind on way home.

Marcel Wyss - wearing shoe covers but no visor.

Nice to see intelligent cyclists can still gain a training free advantage over fools by picking sensible equipment.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Jani 1'18 down. I think the wind has increased.

 

[Sasquatch]

Great ride by Linus. That's what we like to see.

Looks like Zabriskie has this won....maybe.

 

[jens_attacks]

poor brajkovic killed by headwind

 

[Ferminal]

28:51.91 blahblah min 10 chars.

Good time IMO.

 

[roundabout]

Martin's ride is very good

Ok, maybe not.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Jani has been learning from Millar.
