Best GT of the last 3 years

[Sofía_]

Which one was the best or like you more for reason?

I go for the 2010 giro: the Montalcino stage in the mud, L'Aquila break, Basso at the Zoncolan and much more!

Giro 2010 duh

 

[Eshnar]

This poll is a joke.

Right, no contest there. I guess this thread is not going to last long unless the Hitch starts talking about it...

 

[nobilis]

Ive seen 2 posts from you today and both take on the same format as all posts that come from you.

. Are you happy now Libertine? Is this enough for you?

Do you ever make a point without trying to insult other posters?

Other posters who havent even posted in the thread?

Do you have sense of humor? Are you in permanent offended mode? And finally, are you gonna talk about Giro 2010 or not?

oh, i voted giro 2009 when i meant giro 2010... I was thinking it was 2011...

not that it matters, this is the most obvious result since asking if Cadel Evans was world champion in 2010...

How is this a thread.

 

[phanatic]

The 2010 Tour has provided the most enjoyment all-in-all.

 

[will10]

Voted Giro 9 and Giro 10

 

[User Guide]

Giro 10 for obvious reasons already stated, also vuelta 11 had best man against man moment 2009 giro good too but involved Di Luca so is tarnished in my memory.

 

[jens_attacks]

giro 2009
giro 2010
vuelta 2011

 

[orangerider]

Giro 2009 for sure. Menchov was an outsider chance but dramatically and consistently rose to the top, and DiLuca was a strong worthy contender. It was difficult to tell who would win. Also, we got to see Lance in his first comeback grand tour, struggling and suffering in agony while being nursed at the sacrifice of his teammates.

Can't look past the 2010 Giro. It's a clear winner.

A better poll would have been, "which was the 2nd best GT over the past 3 years. For me the 2nd best would be the 2011 Tour.

How is it even a question?

Anyone see the general overview of the Giro from CN?

Half of its about Toc while Armstrong is named as "the star of the 2009 edition".

Would have easily passed for a Wonderlance post on the forum.

the tour of 2010 would be my second placed race for sheer comedy value..

It's my #1. Close race till the finish in Paris, cobbles, Lance's downfall, 'the chain episode' and the final duel between Andy and Berto. Thought it was brilliant.

the 197-rider start list includes reigning world champion Cadel Evans (BMC), 2008 Tour de France winner Carlos Sastre (Cervelo TestTeam), Bradley Wiggins (Team Sky), Christian Vande Velde (Garmin-Transitions), Alexander Vinokourov (Astana), Marzio Bruseghin (Caisse d'Epargne) and David Moncoutie (Cofidis).

Defending champion Denis Menchov (Rabobank) isn't riding this year but names to watch for include Linus Gerdemann (Milram), Filippo Pozzato (Katusha), Marco Pinotti (HTC-Columbia), Thomas Voeckler (BBox Bouygues Telecom), Dan Martin and David Millar (Garmin-Transitions) and Dario Cioni and Michael Barry (Team Sky).

Seriously... I didn't even know most of these guys raced the 2010 Giro.

Lets find the Toc 2010 archives and see if there is a plug for the Giro in the same way there is one for the Toc in the Giro preview.

As you said before, sometimes it seems as if the Toc writes CN previews for them like that Cali preview which said it was like the best in the world.
