Cadel's done a flyer

 

[sometriguy]

LOL at Silence Lotto, poor cadel!

 

[Cobblestones]

Garmin going now.

 

[39*23t]

Looks like Milram down to 6, but can't see who else was dropped.

Wegman Wrolich Tepstra

well silence ballsed that up royally..

we will get an idea now of wether the times are good or not.. that 1m by silence could be fair, but it could be very very slow..

Wegman Wrolich Tepstra

lol, :d:d:d

Looks like Cervelo is doing better than Silence. Sastre gains some time back from Evans for the podium stakes game (if Astana don't pull a Mapei on the podium, ie. fill the whole thing).

 

[Cobblestones]

Menchov+Evans both about 1' down on Katusha in the end. Cervelo still looks ok.

 

[Cobblestones]

Leakygas doing a great job as well. Go Kreuziger, Nibali.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Evans, Menchov are gonna get destroyed by Astana today.
Liquigas best time at 2nd, no surprise there.

 

[39*23t]

Luquigas going strong all nine riders still there

 

[Cobblestones]

QS also about 1' down on Katusha.

Now going: Saxo

 

[luckyboy]

*crosses fingers for Saxo*

 

[Parrot23]

Go Kreuziger, Nibali.

Good pt. Forgot about them, LOL.

 

[39*23t]

lets see how far franck gets

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Saxobank up, look forward to first time check for Garmin, should give us an indication of how much time the likes of menchov/evans will lose, as they are the first of four teams who (IMO) are step above in the TTT.

 

[luckyboy]

I think (hope)

1. Garmin
2. Saxo
3. Columbia
4. Astana

 

[Seth Bullock]

One of those Liquigas boys are on a normal bike.... Bennati I think..

 

[Kazistuta]

Frank survived Badger Bend..... Impressive by Liquigas som far!

 

[Publicus]

Cervelo is putting in a decent ride. Only 16 seconds down at the 3rd check point. Don't know if that will last once the top 4 teams get on the road, but it looks good for Carlos.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

i love how every year Sherwin claims Euskatel will own when it comes to the mountains, yet the always fail.

 

[Parrot23]

Will Bert Grabsch, Michelin Man, be pusing monster gear again doing 50rpm again? Will have to adjust TV set.

NB: great cushioning for Badger's corner and other eventualities.
