Cobblestones said:He found out the white line at the finish doesn't live up to his expectations.
Thoughtforfood said:Well, I was going to follow the stage today, but I just can't be bothered to do so. Quite simply, this is the worst race I have watched in a long time. To call it boring would do a disservice to sports like baseball. This is something well beyond boring. After yesterday's great big "FU" to fans of cycling by the peloton, I just cannot seem to give a shit about this sorry excuse for a race.
Have fun watching. I am sure that watching a Cav sprint win will be great fun for all.
Bala Verde said:I am glad I went for a ride. Tuned in, as to be expected, right in time for the summary of the stage, the last 3K.
Twas only a 3% gradient, not enough to slow down the Columbia train. Freire got backed up too much, although within 1K he was on Hshvd's wheel, which he never should have left. Good result from Hutarovich, and even better from Farrar.
Cavendish rules the waves...
Can't wait till tomorrow, Identical profile and identical finish. I reckon I'll go for a nice morning ride again...
Mellow Velo said:Yeah.
Farrar is quickly becoming to sprinting, what Cadel Evans is to climbing.
