duarte,like pantani is the little shiit starter.i love him!

Indeed he is- at least he's getting the courage to attack and break off those stupid trains

 

[Rocksteady]

That journalist must have been so puzzled... using Irizar to interpret Horner's English words into Basque and the other way around, then having Horner answering in Spanish. Still laughing.

Well you have to give him a little credit for trying.

samu and purito were busy watching each other it seemed.

now we wait for Thursday

Alto de Uzartza should be fun.

last year gesink, samu and horner contested the finish.

klodi gets the jersey

 

[Cobblestoned]

Klöden new leader, chapeau !

This Klöden can make you somehow anxious

 

[theyoungest]

I'm playing catch up.
Since when did Ardila look 15?
Took 2 seconds to recognize they were wrong.
At least someone tweeted their stupid mistake and once again, Harmon didn't like being corrected.

You more or less called that small bunch sprint, right.

Yeah, Ardila could never attack like that from such a strong group. He's simply not good enough. That, and the fact that this guy looked nothing like Ardila.

I disagree and you will see that in the Arrate stage. I'll make you eat your words.

Just like the dudes that believed in Franky Schleck in last years Vuelta

Or the dudes that believed in Mosquera

Whose that listed after Daotec

Not this year though.
Samu, Horner and Rodriguez will be the ones.

Gesink, Cunego, Klöden in the group behind

I don't think Frank is apart of the elite group, but you don't give his ability credit. He is pretty good on this sort of climb. I expect he will be ok on thursday,

 

[Ney the Viking]

I missed the replay, how the hell did CAS end up in 4th in a sprint? I think its good that he showed some legs today, but wth?

 

[Descender]

Oh I do, of course I do!

It was just way too funny a situation.

Hah yes, I wish that hexodecimalwhateverheuseddextrine worked better, than he'd have won.

Forgetting someone

Is Andy Schleck just "training" or what??????

I was gonna say the same thing.
Gesink does not look good at all imo.
I don't even know if he looks great in terms of the classics. But we'll see i guess.

yeah, he got beer in his bottles

Sorry, out of sight, out of mind.

Andy is riding very well considering L-B-L is still two and a half weeks away.

Interesting to see who will outsprint Freire tomorrow... Dan Martin?

Now don't go and insult people because they look silly.

 

[hatcher]

Could anyone tell if that was Cummings or Nordhaug chasing Kiryienka? Couldn't tell from above.

sorry, I totally forgot Purito was up the road
I just remember those 3 sprinting

Cummings was listed in the front group in the results. Not sure about Nordhaug.

Thanks. It did look more like Cummings.

results just updated. Nordhaug 26 seconds back.

Up the road in 9th?

10th for Hitch.

Kiryienka is fast becoming one of my favourites, and great to see Klödi in the lead once again! What a season he's having.

Despite his shortcomings, I don't really mind Harmon. He's ok. Would have liked Kelly instead of Bäckstedt though. Thank God they didn't give this race to Kirby (aka Mr. TT-God-Samu-Sanchez-has-to-limit-his-losses-on-the-climbs).
