Thor !!!!!!!!

I now predict a huge crash caused by Davis, taking out all the sprinters of note left.

Someone wins from out of nowhere.

Or maybe Hushovd just wins it.

 

[DAOTEC]

¡Gana Hushovd!

 

[Alpe d'Huez]

I feel smart!

Of course, not that hard of a pick I guess.

 

[maltiv]

Yeeeeeeees!!!!!!!! Huuuuuuushooooovd!

 

[Parrot23]

Ha, Alpe d'Huez you called it right! Congrats!

Did you think he would be stronger on the last drag after the hills when Freire would be shot more?

 

[luckyboy]

Ugh, Hushovd

 

[davis_123]

Most undeserving WC ever, what a **** finish to a great race.

 

[online-rider]

****eN Hushoved

 

[Tyke1968]

THOR king of all men!

 

[Spare Tyre]

Oh my f---- god !!!!

What a finish.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

It's Thor!!

Damn Terpstra if he timed his attack a bit later.... wow.

 

[Captain Serious]

OMFG!! That was farkin awesome!!

 

[WinterRider]

So I guess a sprinter from a team of 3 can win, someone should find Cav and let him know

 

[The Hitch]

Bit of an anti climax with the celebration. Didnt celebrat till after and hten just put his hands in the air.

 

[Jamsque]

Lightning strike in Australia!

The Thunder God is in town!

Did you hear the scream from the crowd when Davis kicked?

 

[The Barb]

Bravo Thor!!!!

Deserved that after his sterling riding at the Tour.

Woohoo!!!

$200 @ 15-1 didn't hurt either.

 

[Tuarts]

Breschel 2nd
Davis 3rd

Was it Breschel 2nd? Someone earlier predicted him.

 

[craig1985]

Well done to Hushovd.

 

[balkou]

Pozzato says that he had cramps in the end

 

[Parrot23]

Every road race end in a sprint in Geelong? LOL. Funny that.

 

[Francois the Postman]

Ok, when we feared "it will be a bunch sprint finish", did anyone picture all that stuff in the middle?

If it was always like that I could actually start to like them.

Congrats to Thor. Wish it had been any other guy who was part of the long list of animators we have had here though.
