I think you are.

Guys, the break isn't going to make it

 

[Netserk]

I think you are.

Balls, not bollocks.

 

[DenisMenchov]

I love the way Italy raced so far. I saw them only once.

 

[BlueRoads]

Let us know what their commentators are like.

They could tell me anything, I don't have a clue about fencing. I'm switching back, this is too much for my nerves.

 

[Ripper]

Bauke looking good

 

[Netserk]

Why not keep Worre on and only substitute Wenzel? At least we'll have Bay.

 

[Rollthedice]

I love the way Italy raced so far. I saw them only once.

Caruso will hit the front halfway on Fuji.

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

Good thing - I woke up just before Fuji.
Bad thing - Brian Smith on GCN is making me feel sleepy again.
Thankful thing - At least it's not Liggett

 

[Ripper]

A bit surprised Belgium is so swarmed at the front, but what do I know

And it has started

Yep.

This battle between Netserk and Logic is going to be most memorable indeed.

I'll let you know when I get a hard on.

 

[Netserk]

Caruso will hit the front halfway on Fuji.

Ciccone is expected to be the first card, no?

Those shots from the car in front of the break look awesome.

Guys, the break isn't going to make it

Who thinks it is?

 

[Pantani_lives]

Eleven minutes is a lot. Which country will do the work? Belgium, Italy and Spain are well present at the front. Polanc from Slovenia is in trouble already.

 

[Netserk]

Mäder and Sivakov near the front as well. Good outsiders.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Balls, not bollocks.

You keep saying this. I take it you are an expert on the subject, so i'll leave it at that.

 

[Salvarani]

Just woke up and tuning in.

Saw Geraint has crashed again.

 

[Netserk]

Eleven minutes is a lot. Which country will do the work? Belgium, Italy and Spain are well present at the front. Polanc from Slovenia is in trouble already.

I think Polanc came back from the cars, not in trouble.

 

[Vesica]

Those shots from the car in front of the break look awesome.

I was just thinking the same. You see it more often in marathon broadcasts for example. Why is it not used more in cycling?

 

[Ripper]

Polanc is always in trouble

 

[Amazinmets87]

Eleven minutes is a lot. Which country will do the work? Belgium, Italy and Spain are well present at the front. Polanc from Slovenia is in trouble already.

Have you reviewed the parcours? 11 minutes is nothing given the monster climbs to come. Especially considering how small the break is. If there were 20 riders, different story.

You keep saying this. I take it you are an expert on the subject, so i'll leave it at that.

Hey you two, there's a bike race on the TV, stop arguing and crack a beer open.

 

[Andy262]

Without wanting to trawl through the thread what happened to Tao?

 

[Rollthedice]

Ciccone is expected to be the first card, no?

Don't know but I have the feeling Caruso will do mountain dom duties.
