Publicus said:For a guy who's so worried about his ability to perform at the Tour because of too many kilometers coming into the race, I'm a little confused as to why he lined up for this particular race.
The Hitch said:He is (or was) the defending champion.
theyoungest said:It's the Luxembourg nationals, nothing more than a training ride for a pro at Schleck's level.
Arnout said:Yep. Also a weird nervous answer from Terpstra when asked about why he was so much better than the rest.
Oh well.

hrotha said:But see, because Cataldo didn't win the Giro and their classics squad was resting we are supposed to believe there's nothing to see here.

Depends what the average fanboy means by salvage.
Let him begin by winning a race. It doesn't even have to be a big one.Panda Claws said:Gilbert might actually salvage this season yet.

Panda Claws said:All those statistics posted all the time...
I have 2 reasons to believe so, but even then I remained cautious (notice the 'might' before posting your statistics)
1. If Gilbert wins the worlds and Lombardy than this will go into history as yet another succesful season.
2. Gilbert looked better on the road than he has had all season (watch the eyes) and his brother claimed that Gilbert started from zero again after LBL and had now finally recuperated from last season, supported by something Gilbert said about having lost a bit of overweight in the dauphine and having visible veins in his legs again.
