Glava Tour of Norway 2013, 15th-19th May (2.1)

[wwabbit]

Ya was pretty strange seeing the contrast in weather conditions with both streams open...

 

[maltiv]

The chasing group is cooperating very well, EBH and Paulinho might get caught.

 

[wwabbit]

EBH and Paulinho have about 10 seconds on the chase group

 

[maltiv]

The big danger for EBH is that the group stops up when he's caught, then Kristoff might get back...

 

[wwabbit]

6 seconds now, looks like they will be caught

 

[Zam_Olyas]

I is pronounce as E in Norweigen?

 

[wwabbit]

Hmm, going up again to ~10s

 

[Delberan]

I is pronounce as E in Norweigen?

Yes, it is pronounced as an english e.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Good stage.

 

[maltiv]

Uphill starting now, the guys behind will have to attack early.

 

[wwabbit]

Gap up to ~18 seconds...

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Yes, it is pronounced as an english e.

Oh okay, in one tibeto-burman language it's pronounce in the same way.

 

[wwabbit]

EBh going to take this solo

 

[maltiv]

Woah EBH absolutely motoring, impressive!

ps. I have 3 of 4 stage predictions right now!

 

[Zam_Olyas]

EBH takes it..easy e.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

3 Mollema

I think it's more like ee in feel, not shell

 

[maltiv]

Kind of embarassing for Kerrison that EBH is producing A LOT better numbers now than he was during the cobbled classics. A short break and suddenly he was at his best shape ever in tests.

Goes to show that it's not all about training hard, sometimes you have to recover too..

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Exactly the same. I speak a bit of that tibeto-burman language.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Great race action today.

Perfect win for EBH and a solid performance by Paulinho too.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Even within the Oslofjord we could have stages around fairly urban areas that match up to this kind of stage. Just wish they'd give us more of this, cos this could easily become a really good stage race. It just isn't there yet.

 

[Bernie's eyesore]

Great stage today, a shame we won't see EBH riding for himself again for a couple of months.

 

[the asian]

EBH warming up for his bottle carrying role at the Tour in style?

Today's race was on tarmac not cobbles. That's the difference. He won this stage last year in a similar manner.

Now that its live on the TV, I think the race will evolve some more (a bit like TdU perhaps).
