Critérium du Dauphiné 2012 187km Stage 1 Seyssins → Saint-Vallier

[hoolaparara]

Ahh I thought it looked white than FDJ. 4 Argos-Shimano horses pulling the schleck group.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Andy and Vino having a chat.

Schleck to Astana progresses...

 

[ChewbaccaD]

Andy is suffering from that thing where one brother feels the pain of the other brother, so no surprise there.

 

[therhodeo]

Where was Chavanel in all that?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

ACF should be here

 

[dlwssonic]

wow its rare we get to see cadel this aggressive.
Great descending from him! What power!
I thought he might get beaten in the sprint, but I should not have underestimated him.
He mostly carried that 3 men group.

Ahh I thought it looked white than FDJ. 4 Argos-Shimano horses pulling the schleck group.

Well, Argos-Shimano and Schleck, two of the most overhyped and underperforming subjects in cycling?

 

[mb2612]

Wiggins in yellow though

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

ACF should be here

Where is he? Exams?

 

[cineteq]

Since you spend all your time with guys, that may be so. But on those occasions you are around women too, its better to keep.such things to yourself.

I second this. 2 weeks suspension for this poster?

 

[therhodeo]

ACF should be here

Him not being here makes Cadel more likeable though.

 

[ChewbaccaD]

Not counting yesterday then.

Rather odd, Sky didn't make any effort to get to the front before or during the climb, and didnt do anything to bring it back either.

They were on the front at one point, they just couldn't close the gap.

 

[jens_attacks]

final hill done at 28 km/h...talk about a sprinter's stage

cadel can win a sprint going with 800 m to go

 

[Hayabusa]

Great work from Evans, going to be an interesting battle between him and Wiggins!

 

[The Hitch]

Nope, just an insult. To be honest, in modern day life I can't imagine anyway being offended terribly at this. I laughed a little

Ryo will probably get banned again tho

---

Sucks for Martin hope he is ok

Im not offended by it. ryos delusion that only dutch people would use it is.false.

But it is.sexist in that it.implies women are weak, prone.to.drama. from.my experience this is not true.

 

[phanatic]

That's the Evans of 2010-11 and the next two months are looking up. But were Sky trying to ditch the leader's jersey?

 

[dlwssonic]

Seriously this is like the highlight of the season for me, let me go wild for a while.

 

[goggalor]

Wiggins not in second group either?

I was looking at the stage placings.

Wiggo in yellow.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

did wiggins win yesterday? no he didn't

so i did count yesterday

Ahh, forgot these guys were more interested in stage wins than GC.

Agree with the viewpoint, Cav is a great champion and it is a matter of some confusion how he has yet to win the Tour.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Kudos to Coppel and Kash as well

Thought Tony Martin was going to mow them down for sure

 

[Winterfold]

great stuff by Cuddles! Fantastic last 10km and finish

 

[dlwssonic]

Wiggins better watch out for the tdf!!!

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

They were on the front at one point, they just couldn't close the gap.

1 man was on the front for 30 seconds then drifted back. That is not trying to close the gap when you have others available.

 

[TechnicalDescent]

So Wiggins takes the lead by 1 second. This is going to be an interesting week!

 

[Ildabaoth]

wow its rare we get to see cadel this aggressive.

I still don't get why this legend is still around. Evans is one of the most aggressive riders in the peloton. The only times he looks conservative is in the tour (besides last year) and that's because it is impossible to attack when there are clearly stronger climbers with you.
