Good spot, I wondered what he was he on about.

So, the road is perfect, not too narrow, quality asphalt, good weather, no rain, no sun, perfect temperature, the peloton is calm, friendly, nice scenery. This is at last what Cancelara likes, no wonder he rode away.

I saw some leaves on the road; the rustling sound might upset his rhythm.

I love Spartacus, really!

 

[SeriousSam]

So you rate cobblestones as quality asphalt, I assume?

That's different. Fabian is good at riding over cobblestones so they're A-ok.

 

[Carols]

How can you tell they are going slow? Alberto isn't alone is how!

 

[infeXio]

Borg alert

 

[Carols]

Sky moving up!!! Alberto will soon be alone....

 

[b.broadhurst]

Here we go......

7 Sky riders but not all together yet

 

[GreasyMonkey]

Froome sends the sky-train to pull the whole peloton up San Lorenzo...... Just caught Canc.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Zubeldia! Was he in this race?

 

[b.broadhurst]

Actually all 8 riders are near the front with Kennaugh up the road.

Froome feeling good? Or do they only know one way of riding?

 

[Walkman]

Why the F… does SKY hit the front?!

Unless Froome feels great, why not just let the other teams do the pace making and then just focus all SKY riders on pacing Froome at a constant high pace.

 

[the sceptic]

Dawg mutant attack coming today

 

[Pricey_sky]

What on earth is going on, punches thrown!

 

[Walkman]

Fight in the break!!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Rovny and Brambilla starting a boxing match

 

[Rollthedice]

Fight in the break!

 

[the sceptic]

loooooooool

 

[b.broadhurst]

Froome is still struggling to hold wheels

 

[shalgo]

Sky hits the front = the day's first "400 Bad request" error from the forum.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Damn I hope Rovny doesn't get DSQ'd.

We will get an answer in 39km, Froome must feel good as they haven't assembled with this force all race.

 

[b.broadhurst]

Knees is done, Rowe up next, 7 Borgs to go....

Rovny and Brambilla starting a boxing match

The break away scrap, sheesh. Nice to see another Saxo rider fighting alone lol.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Uran is surviving well on this climb. Some teams will rue the opportunity to ride him on minutes before
