They are expected to hit the Alpe like 18:00 a clock I believe, so one can watch WC and Alpe d'Huez.

Publicus said:ACF should remember from last year at this very race that AC is a man of his word. He said he wasn't going for the win, that he was only going to try and stay with Cuddles. He did both IIRC. Same will happen here. He will go with whatever move develops from Menchov or JB (really isn't much happening on GC), but otherwise, I don't see him having the team set him up for a solo flight.
Sasquatch said:My prediction.
Evans is still sore about losing the queen stage last year because of 'apparent' Spanish corruption. He lets his dog loose on the Alpe which Contador crashes into. He falls hard, does no injury and gets back on his bike. Contador cruises to the stage win!

Publicus said:Perhaps ACF94 should read more closely. All that hate of all things Spanish (related to cycling) because Cuddles doesn't have the talent to compete. Wah!!!!!!!!!
(I know, I know, it's because they are all doping (except cadel of course because he is god). Every Cuddles loss is excused and every win is magnified because of that "fact". )
auscyclefan94 said:I am not sure who to go for. I guess I will go for the poms. The sepo's won't say anything about the WC once they are out of it or when they have lost.
thehog said:There is no place for women on a day like today.
I doubt that. If he got busted which would basically do that with a photo then everyone would be all over it.thehog said:Landis could release photos of the entire USPS team injecting and I still think the Clinic will by dry from posts today. Sport is the only winner on a day like today.
python said:lets get evans polution/contamination out of this thread, shall we ?
19 escapees getting 1:50 gap on the peloton. Samoilau is imo the most capable there.
looks like from now on the gap will be controlled till the last climb at no more than 4-5 minutes.
then take yourself and his body to another thread. otherwise, i will report every post you place offtopic. thank you.auscyclefan94 said:I

pedaling squares said:Good Morning all (here anyway). I'm having no luck with a live feed, can anyone post one that is working. Any lingua will do.
Bala Verde said:Can we all stay on topic please. This is the Dauphine stage 6 to Alpe D'huez thread.
Evans is not participating, so why the discussion turns that way is beyond me. Nor are Landis and Armstrong for that matter...
The WC, although exciting, can be further discussed in the WC 2010 cafe thread.
Next blatant off topics discussions will receive infractions.
