Official Thread: Stage 17 Bourg-Saint-Maurice to Le Grand-Bornand

[BroDeal]

I am starting to have doubts that A. Schleck has the staying power to sustain a high pace on a climb. This might not bode well for his chances of winning a GT.

 

[Parrot23]

Lance vs. Wiggo in TT will be interesting.

 

[sometriguy]

Looks like some riders got refills during the rest day.

makes the race much more exciting

 

[luckyboy]

Nibali back to Wiggins' group

 

[Shirotai]

Wiggins has just shown that he has a limit, I think

Wondered about that yesterday.

 

[frizzlefry]

some of these guys are going to be wasted on the next climb.

Pelizzotti has burnt his matches.

Paul is sayin lance is playin the good ol team mate

He always says that...even if it is inappropriate, I think he even says it in his sleep

AC is head and shoulders above Andy.

Yeah, but he can get back on the downhill

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Klöden makes an amazingly strong impression.

 

[El Imbatido]

just saw the eskys in the back of the astana car. Maybe there is not just bottles in there

 

[BroDeal]

Kloden looks so smooth and relaxed.

 

[mambo#5]

Klodi is looking like a cool customer.

 

[Bala Verde]

Klöden makes an amazingly strong impression.

He has been stronger than Armstrong I think.

Good to see Uran covering for Contador... He'll get the win if Contador decides...

Baby Schleck doesn't look good.

 

[sometriguy]

Baby Schleck doesn't look good.

I think he was much better when he wasn't the captain.... he could just play and do whatever... he can't handle the big pressure

 

[mambo#5]

has Sastre cracked?

 

[Dr. Maserati]

Baby Schleck doesn't look good.

He looks on the limit - at least he is giving it a go!

 

[Bala Verde]

Versus "armstrong is like a spring, ready to pounce"...

so that you guys know it...

 

[Parrot23]

So Kloeden is knocking Wiggins off podium. He can TT too.

 

[sometriguy]

Versus "armstrong is like a spring, ready to pounce"...

so that you guys know it...

well we all know he is the best climber in the peleton... just being a good team mate ....

That reminds me of the 70 odd water bottles that Floyd Landis went through on his day 3 years ago. Bet his team car had a big esky.
