Giro d'Italia Stage 14: Ferrara - Asolo (205km)

[Waterloo Sunrise]

so why isnt he accused of wheelsucking then.....

BECAUSE HIS TEAMMATE IS UP THE ROAD.

Seriously? Most people would have the decency to sneak off after having humiliated themselves with Hitler related idiocy.

tactics.. different situation...

 

[Libertine Seguros]

so why isnt he accused of wheelsucking then.....

Because it's not wheelsucking when it's sensible team tactics (he has a teammate up the road). When did Evans have a GC-hunting teammate up the road when he was being accused of being a wheelsucker?

 

[auscyclefan94]

basso did make the big effort on the climb so he won't be getting much resspite.

And once again Sportzchick shows a complete lack of understanding the sport

 

[zapata]

High Five

 

[BroDeal]

he will win tomorrow imo.
he looked comfortable on the Grappa, and should reap the benefits from the ride he is getting at the moment.

I thought so, too. He looks really strong.

Nibali does not look bad either.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

How did on earth did Sastre lose 2 minutes to Vino on the descent ?

 

[Galic Ho]

One time trial? seriously? You're saying a guy with good power and a good TT position sucks at Time trials, the discipline where he has his best results, based on a single stage?

Ok then. Since you're going with that one time trial, then Ignatiev is a chrono god.
Hey, he was just behind Cancellara and way ahead of a lot of the world's best that day. Surely he must be awesome.

I love how you get upset when people put words in your mouth but now you are stating that I said he sucks! Drop it or I report you. Fed up with your high and mighty BS. Grow some balls and start treating the rest of the forum as you desire to be treated. I implied he was not as good as Evans. Never said he wasn't good. You inferred.

Grow up you Euro tool.

 

[Walkman]

but of course completelty irrelevant to worry too much about times between two guys who started the day about 12 minutes back

Well I asked for the information and he was kind enough to provide it so stop it, please!

 

[BroDeal]

He is Spanish.

Smack! Bad Bro.

im still punching

Im just sick and tired of the double standards - Cadel has been ill for days and he had every right to take it easy during some of the stage but nooooo he's a wheel sucker right

but its ok for other riders.......pulease!

What I do understand is what hypocracy looks like

FFS

 

[auscyclefan94]

sportschick, don't bother with the hypocrits on this fourm.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Gap out to 48".
Basso isn't wheel sucking, SC. He's doing the team job.
In truth, he would probably like to work.

sportschick, don't bother with the hypocrits on this fourm.

Read my post. It's honest.

sorry, i forgot to put a smiley on the end.. that wasnt meant nastily

 

[Moondance]

This is not about hating Cadel. This is elementary team tactics.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

cyclingnews forum = days of our lives?

Go nibali go!!

This is not about hating Cadel. This is elementary team tactics.

Give it up, dude. You were wrong about Nibali. Continuing to argue the point is stupid.

that's dekker t for you.

 

[theyoungest]

Please, watch some more cycling before commenting on tactics. And while you're at it, watch some WW II documentaries as well, so you'll NEVER EVER COMPARE ANYONE TO HITLER AGAIN.

you do understand it would be pretty dumb of basso to help bring nibali back?

Some learn. Some don't.
