Great great win by Evans.

 

[badboyberty]

Wanna bet Evans cries?

I don't know if it's because I've been drinking wine all day, but I'm ready to cry if Cadel doesen't.

An Aussie Mtb 'er i the rainbow, F'kin Aye!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Nailed IT!!!!!

[Merckx]

Very well played by Evans. Would have liked Fabian more though

 

[53x11 in DC]

That was a victory salute??? He had 400m on the chasers!!

i think i might go put some of the more vocal aussies on ignore..

Yes, he may have attacked over the years, but this was the first time he made it stick in a big race.

Time to rewrite the book on Evans.

 

[Parrot23]

He read it well. Got the break on hill knowing he could TT hold the gap, rather than play games in a sprint with Italians and Valvi.

 

[issoisso]

guy from the same city as me with the same last name as me 17th. How many of you can say that?

 

[Azdak6]

Not always the biggest Evans fan---but I am today! That was just tough, tough, tough.

 

[Cobber]

What an amazing race. Great win Cadel!

 

[aarnold517]

that was stupid by the spaniards, leaving an ultra-tired rodriguez to sprint against evans and kolobnev while samu and valv were behind

even if samu and valv were too tired, you have to win when you have 3 members of an 8-man breakaway

[cavfan11]

[rolfrae]

bloody hell... someone is NOT happy...

cos they cut away before even showing podium I think lol

 

[Parrot23]

Gutsey, gutsey attack. No looking back, fully committted when others were playing games.

 

[hoolaparara]

Also another triumph for the cutting off your nose to spit your face tactics of cycling where you make sure you don't win anything just to make sure the guys with you don't win anything.

Yes, he may have attacked over the years, but this was the first time he made it stick in a big race.

He wins so seldom he does not have a victory salute.
