Completely overlooked in the previews: Juan Antonio Flecha.

I did him at 80/1. Feeling quite good about it now.

After breaking his hand he's been flying under the radar, could give him a chance to sneak away.

 

[dlwssonic]

Canc and Boonen have been very quiet.

He didn't have any competition, but you never know.

Canc and Boonen have been very quiet.

saving powers is the new tactic

So now the Koppenberg is closer to the finish, but reduced to a tempo climb?

Can't say I'm sold on the new route yet. A bit like the Ardennes classics, it seems like the riders are being frightened into not breaking it apart early on by the difficulty of later stages. There's still time though.

Cancellara not looking that strong....

 

[jens_attacks]

they are taking the climbs at low speed.let's hope it won't end in a bunch sprint....

 

[nvpacchi]

Pippo with a flat

or was it Gatto

 

[dlwssonic]

Have a feeling, Gilbert and Canc will break off and contest the sprint.

 

[skidmark]

Cancellara not looking that strong....

It's true, there are 62km left and he hasn't tried to do a solo break for the win yet...

Cancellara not looking that strong....

He is at the front, its Boonen I think who is the one.

 

[gthx_gthx_]

Last year was an amazing year , the favorite attacked from far , but I guess this year , we're just back to the usual cycling.

And who's going to attack with 60 km to go ? Even a chavanel attack 'd pointless.

 

[dlwssonic]

It's true, there are 62km left and he hasn't tried to do a solo break for the win yet...

we have to wait till the 50km mark

you'll eat your words when the final comes.
