Paris-Nice '12: Stage 1 Dampierre-en-Yvelines - Saint-Rémy-lès-Chevreuse (ITT), 9,4 k

So annoying when weather becomes such a huge factor in TTs

 

[Unkown]

I don't think it is having an overly large effect on the times considering the times riders are still posting.

If you have ever ridden a TT bike before you would know that the guys starting now are losing 10+ seconds because of the rain. You can't go anywhere near full speed in the tight corners.

Wiggins, +5 sec on first check. He's gonna win this TT.

While I'm sure you're an absolute image of beauty yourself, no one cares what you think of Wiggins' or any other rider's looks.

Lol. It's not just about looks he's a total jerk as well.

 

[Trev_S]

Wiggins looks like he is going hard

These riders are the team leaders so they should be the best so in cosideration of what should be expected of them they are posting very poor times.

Tony Martin just took that corner veeeery carefully imo. He's certainly losing time compared to what he could do, and Wiggins too.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Nothing to 'ouch' about.

It's a unfair comparison between dry/wet... Look how Wiggins has to take these corners...almost full stop!

[hfer07]

Wiggo is putting a serious dig

 

[Froome19]

Martin 78th at 3:09 in intermediate

On the straights yes, on the corners no way.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Not bad by Gerrans...very solid time for him.

 

[maltiv]

Wiggins looks really fast on the straight roads, but he loses like 5 seconds each corner...

 

[Potomac]

No sense risking broken collarbones for short P-N stage.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Wiggins 2nd time!

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

he was close. he did well.

 

[superconfex]

wow wiggo you beast.. great time

 

[Trev_S]

Gerrans 24secs down, good ride

 

[Kwibus]

Wiggins woah! In the rain!

 

[hfer07]

[auscyclefan94]

Great ride by Wiggins. Nailed it!
