Gesink in a crash.... What else is new

He's just a magnet for trouble this guy... Hopefully he isn't too busted up... Who knows maybe thats his portion of bad luck for the day?

Sastre had to change bikes (involvement in crash), and his B-day! (35)

Woz in crash... Looked from the aerial shot like he might've caused it too...

Jens! always looks like he is fighting his machine. Trying to get more out of it, I guess.

Maybe he wanted his crash for the day to be early.

Speaking of fall-prone riders... Has Fränck Schleck managed to stay upright so far?

 

[auscyclefan94]

voigt is so wobbly on the bike!

 

[Parrot23]

Is A. Schleck's form still suspect from his slow season start, from injuries, etc.?

Does that mean folks are going to wait for him to launch his attack(s)? And he's watched. So I guess the fireworks happen when he goes. Teams must be waiting for him.

I wish he left those detailed, micro-reconnaissance missions for training...

Yea, he pounds his bike into submission.

If you listen very carefully, you can hear the bike scream.

I think he indicated that due to changes to the parcours, and the fact that not many team (IHO) would carry the race/be strong enough, tactics would change as well. He was contemplating if an early attack would work...
