Parrot23 said:Not sure who they are. Not as good as Cyclingtv's Backstedt etc., yet, but will see.
Hey, uniballer has less rolling resistance. He needs everything he can get now. Must be a shocker to him to be fourth on his team. I think this is JB's comment yesterday.
Or maybe he actually met Vino in person yesterday. Think the latter lives in Monaco.
Not Riding Enough said:Thanks also for the BBC link. I have done the same but the audio is a bit behind the pictures here. Once Wimbledon is over we will get english commentry.
issoisso said:I just saw a Katusha rider make a completely stupid, idiotic, sudicidal attack.
So of course it has to be Ignatiev, I thought. He's got the brain power of an orange.
Sure enough, it's him.
So much talent, so little brains. bah.

Rechtschreibfehler said:You should never try! Absolutly right!
Also never ever has anyone won doing something like that!
Especially Ignatiev has not won a single thing trying stuff like that.
Thoughtforfood said:It would be funny to see Garmin ride for Contador. In fact, any team that really wants to get him next year could make a pretty great deal with him right now. Screw The Hog.
issoisso said:Sarcasm aside, you should never try in that situation. Ignatiev has tried this type of suicidal attack well over twenty times in his pro career. It's never worked. He once won by attacking inside the final 2kms at the Trofeo Laigueglia, and that's very different from this.
Attacking with over 10 to go, with no support when the pack is at full flight and the narrow windy roads are all behind you is stupid.
That's completely different from "You should never try".
But hey, if you like putting words in my mouth, feel free. Doesn't show you in good light, though.
