I think you are going to get disappointed. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Evans has never won a mountain top finish. Today he's going to get dropped when Contador and Schleck accelerate. I don't think he's going to lose much time though, something like 45 seconds.

Paris-Nice last year rings a bell? Evans won the mountain top finish in front of Gesink.

Ah yes, after wheelsucking his way to the win. That was disgusting btw. Still dislike Evans for that stage.

;)

you need friends in the peloton.
if contador gets no help from his team, there will be riders willing to work for him. cause he's a nice guy, riders like the way he approaches his sport and they know they'll get something back someday.

if evans has a bad team (and he has) he's on his own, nobody will help
him.

so, no. i don't think it works.
if he had friends on huez last year....

Helmets?

Someone please correct me if im wrong but what helmets are they wearing today? Both Garmin and Astana arent wearing the standard Giro Ionos. What are they wearing? A new version. Must say they look ****.

Just saying that Evans has almost no wins of any significance...

He should have targeted the Vuelta for one year. Menchov has won it one and a half times, and Evans is a better rider than Menchov.

LOL, there is a big difference in a climb and sprint finish.
Who needs to pay attention to cycling a bit more????

Maybe we should all pay a bit more attention to be nice to each other AND
TO KIRCHEN!

Is Martin becoming the GC captain just now? Or maybe Monfort.

But it was to be expected that he'd be in trouble...

today will tell. i think montfort can come a lot further than most people think.
but if martin hangs on, there shouldn't be any debate. he's the guy for the future (or at least until his knees become useless from that monstergear)

I have been keeping an eye on kirchen, actually found it surprising that the peleton let the breakaway go with him in it.
