Eneco Tour 2012 Stage 6

Page 2 - Get up to date with the latest news, scores & standings from the Cycling News Community.
TT isn't very long so Phinney should win this, allthough Durbridge could do this as well.
This should be pretty good for Boom as well and let's see what the OPQS guys will do. Chav, Terpstra and Kwia.

More importantly will be how Contador rides his TT :)

not TT´ieng for so long in a race will be a handicap.

I don't really agree, even though it's his first TT I don't think that will suffer so much because he has not that much rythm yet as opposed to normal stages.

Obviously i'm not a rider but I don't believe your TT ability will suffer much from it. I mean, the guy is been riding for 6 months a TT lol

Well, of course it´s a handicap, you go faster in a race situation on public road than you do in training on a public road, which is where most TT´s are raced on.
It will always be different in any race situation when you compete, the setup, the closed roads, spectators etc. its just different.

Hah, I agree he does seem to move about a lot. He commented earlier that he is riding a new bike and are using this as a test in order to make changes/adjustments.
