yeah it ****es me off when they do this and in the end kristoff is badly positioned and isolated.
I think they don't understand that all a "leadout" like this leads to is that Kristoff will have to slow down and use a lot of energy to get into the train again afterwards.

I never said that about Kristoff and I never said he was a great rider either before his transfer. Anyway I hope he does well today before he leaves BMC.

Fair enough, sorry for generalizing all BMC fans. :)

(But you'll have to get used to that, now that BMC is a super team that will dominate 2 GTs and all classics. Oops I did it again. :D)

loads of people generalise BMC fans anyway:).
I won't be complaining much about BMC next year with the super team.

Kristoff is riding here, but he really is dead to BMC fans now, eh?

hrotha said:
Agreed. The minute it was revealed Kristoff was leaving the team they were talking about he isn't that fast anyway.

Let me clear some things up.
He is not dead to me. I still barrack for him. What I do object to is that every sprint he is in it always seems to be the excuse, "my legs exploded in the last 100m". I question how hard the guy trains if that is the case. He certainly is fast on the occasions he has got it right.
