[Lanark]

The Pfannenstiel... wasn't that the main climb of Züri metzgete?

Miss that race so much

Me too at first. But since Montreal/Quebec have been introduced I find them a worthy successor. Nice races

Sicard But Romain Sicard (EUS) is much faster - new best time at the first intermediary for him at 20:36.



edit:
Cancellara But that is nothing in comparison with Fabian Cancellara! He passes the Pfannenstiel at 19:38 - one minute faster than Sicard!

LOL Fabian

 

[Ferminal]

Cancellara up the climb

 

[dlwssonic]

WOW!!
go canc!!
Or it may be the other times are just that terrible

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

go canc!!
Or it may be the other times are just that terrible

Cam Meyer is ofcourse no terrible tt-er.

And Sicard up such a climb should be good (although he has been bad recently)

 

[Ferminal]

Nah it's a good time. No calculator but it must be about 35km/h, with 300m of climbing.

 

[jens_attacks]

grande cancellara!
that's fast

 

[dlwssonic]

Cam Meyer is ofcourse no terrible tt-er.

And Sicard up such a climb should be good (although he has been bad recently)

Than he might be in for the win!!!!

 

[jens_attacks]

i still expect rui costa to do even better,at least in the first part

 

[dlwssonic]

He form seems to be gradually improving. I still believe he can win the prologue at liege.
and maybe win one of the TTs.

 

[Maroon Heaven]

And the first rider has started. It will take about 50 minutes to timetrial the course.

Not only Rui Costa

 

[Trofinios]

Nah it's a good time. No calculator but it must be about 35km/h, with 300m of climbing.

34.53 km/h.

Seems like Cancellara is on a mission today.

 

[Fidolix]

The swiss ferrari is flying today, good to see he is finding the tour form.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Cancellara 46:38

 

[Trofinios]

46:38 by Cancellara!

 

[glassmoon]

great time by Spartacus

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

That's 44,37 km/h
This is a tough course

 

[Trofinios]

He took 42 seconds on O'Grady the last 11.7 km.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Kessiakoff is faster than Cancellara up the Pfannenstiel

 

[Trofinios]

Holy f**king ****. Kessiakoff 19:23!!!

He will of course not beat Canc, but still a good ride so far.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Holy f**king ****. Kessiakoff 19:23!!!

He will of course not beat Canc, but still a good ride so far.

I have a feeling a lot of riders could be faster than Cancellara on the climb. He clearly wins time in the flat and downhill

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

At this moment Peter Sagan has started the race as well. The winner of the first time trial in Lugano is also today a top favourite. Will he be able to beat the still not fully recovered Cancellara again?

I think the ticker doesn't quite fully understand the difference between Sagan on a short distance and Sagan in a long ITT
