Paris - Nice, Prologue Houillers -> Houillers 2.9 km, Sunday 3rd March

[The Hitch]

Harmonn been discussing about a lot of riders whether they can win a gt but with Quintana he just said its a good rider who can do some good work when the road goes up, as if it was Szmyd or something.

Amazing how many people dont realize what a talent he is

 

[hfer07]

YEESSS!!! good job Chava!!

 

[The Blues]

Knew Chava would do well; he always does here.

Come on, Birdie!

Edit: Surprising from Gaudin!

[Dedelou]

New best time for Chavanel!

That did not last too long... oh boy

 

[Miburo]

At least he wasn't first for like 20 minutes. We got our wake-up call quickly

Wow really? I hope he shows everyone what he can do when he's really unleashed in this race.

Edit: also Gaudin now 1st! Jeez, you look away for 10 seconds.

Don't give Sky any idea's

What the hell just happened..?

some random Frenchman took the best time off Chavanel. Happens all the time with these random Frenchmen in PN

 

[serfla]

Gaudin looks like a character from Les Triplettes de Belleville.

 

[superconfex]

Europcar

I don't think I've even heard of him. Which I probably should but...

 

[roundabout]

A pursuiter doing well in a 3k TT

lol dumbest thing i ever heard.

Harmonn says that the reason time trialers (specifically Martin and Wiggins) won the last 2 editions is because the sport is clean now.

Nothing to do with the fact that the courses had absolutely no climbs

Also while casting doubt on "every win between 1988 and 2011" says that Sean Kelly was a clean rider

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Van Garderen not very good. Good news for Quintana/Gesink/etc

 

[kanari]

I see now that Gaudin was 2nd in the Luxembourg prologue a couple of years back so he is clearly good at these short efforts.

Call yourself lucky, that kinda entertainment is priceless

 

[serfla]

Why's Scarponi in France?
