[Kender]

sky were pulling with columbia. wigans had to be in front group

 

[The Sheep]

So Sky haven't ballsed the crosswinds up and Wiggo's in the front group?

Still can happen

 

[Kender]

poor lampre heh. all that work to get onto the back of the pelaton only to have petachi puncture just as they were about to catch.

 

[Ferminal]

Bloody Venus Williams. The Giro coverage was scheduled to start 25 minutes ago (according to my EPG at least).

Serena is absolutely useless, threw away a double-break in the deciding set. An hour behind schedule

Edit: Hooray, finally! Stick to grand slams you useless part-timer!

It's even worse: Petacchi was in the front group all along. They were working for Cunego, in the second group.

Finally some buttocks.

 

[Kender]

VDV... collarbone? was holding his shoulder ominously

 

[Mellow Velo]

Lampre get back, Petacchi punctures and he has Gibo for his engine. Embarassed
No chance I'm afraid.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Here we go again..........

Lovely waaier werk

Mollema is not one for the echelons, that's for sure

Lovely waaier werk

Usually there is way more wind there. Just imagine...=/

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Mollema is not one for the echelons, that's for sure

Weird, he should be used to it from where he is born and raised

 

[Mellow Velo]

Vino is awesome in these conditions.

 

[Kender]

pelaton splitting up all over the place. who said flat stages were boring

 

[ak-zaaf]

Vino is awesome.

Fixed it

 

[Cobblestones]

I just tuned in. Nice pictures.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Well, guess I shouldn't have said that the wind won't be hard today

Anyone with a status? How far behind is Pozzovivo?

 

[theyoungest]

Weird, he should be used to it from where he is born and raised

If Pozzovivo were born in Groningen, he'd have the same problem. He just doesn't have the talent for it.

 

[Cobblestones]

Did it split up into 4 groups? Oh my.

 

[Mellow Velo]

Anyone with a status? How far behind is Pozzovivo?

He may miss his transfer flight.

 

[ak-zaaf]

Vande Velde Abandon.

 

[The Sheep]

Vandevelde taken out

 

[Kender]

Well, guess I shouldn't have said that the wind won't be hard today

Anyone with a status? How far behind is Pozzovivo?

ny ticker doesn't have a split for him any more and they stopped pictures of him a while ago so either he's back or he's quite some distance behind now. last ticker time i had he was about 1:20 down. that was just after petacchi punctured
