Lol where have i displayed hatred?
I don't like they guy, but i haven't really posted anything negative about the guy. well not to a hatred extent :p

All i meant was he isn't the only cyclist who could achieve what he did.

Live Report

Susan,
The live report on CyclingNews now shows some power data of a handful of riders. This power data is completely meaningless without some associated duration. e.g. Anyone who rides a bike can produce 410W for a short duration, but over 5 minutes - not so many. So what does it mean to say a rider is at 410 Watts?

Seems like another wasted attempt from Millar... Really, whenever that guy attacks, you know it is bound to fail. It's like me lining up to check out in a supermarket. I always manage to pick the queue that takes longest!

I know, but somehow I always feel sorry for him!

Johan Cruijff is telling Breukink how to manoeuvre his way into Barcelona, and where to park...

Spartacus doesn't trust it, he's on the Boss' wheel...

hmm, I wonder where Katyusha and Rabobank are sitting now... Not many miles to go anymore.. Maybe Millar is lucky...

Did Menchov get dropped? hehe

for conditions like this and for the higher pyraneese stages its too dangerous

Probably true. I just think some of these stages become way too formulaic with all of the technology. If they banned race (TV, etc) coverage in the cars and kept radios as a safety/strategy measure, that might be a good compromise.

Was it the Vueleta last year when he had a lead and there was an uphill finish similar to today's and his chain broke?

I seem to remember he threw his bike off of a cliff and ended up losing several minutes of time as the team cars were way back.
