Did David Millar go down?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Some important guy from Rabobank fell because he gets 2 helpers.. Probably Langeveld or Boom, that would be typical

Two big crashes, two seperate Garmin riders.

Come on race radio......

Did David Millar go down?

A "tall Garmin rider" according to Dave & Sean. Not sure if it's Millar but there's another Garmin guy down now with a completely trashed front wheel.

Well, that must be Shaq Vansummeren

/Boom is still there

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Boom is in Boonen and Cancellara's wheel, so I think Langeveld was in the fall.

From Garmin I believe it was Millar indeed, edit: Vansummeren? Hmm. Now i'm doubting

 

[ak-zaaf]

Eisel, Langeveld and Rosseler coming back.
Langeveld not looking good.

FFS, was that Eisel again?

Summie and Farrar down. Garmin not lucky at all.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Farrar fell, Vansummeren fell. Wow!

12 men in front with Cancellara, Flecha, Boonen, Boom

 

[Pantheon of Greats]

Garmin in disarray.

 

[franciep10]

wow garmin has been taken out

 

[Mellow Velo]

Garmin chaos. JVS down, 4 out the back!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Hushovd, Hoste, Boonen, Cancellara, Flecha, Boom, Sagan all there

 

[Lyds97]

It was Eisel.

What's going on with Garmin?? Think they've all crashed now.
And the riders learn the hard way that grass isn't a great riding surface.

O'Grady pushing on with Fab on his wheel. Peleton in bits.

They just remined us that that was the stretch of cobbles that's in the TDF this year, 7km from the finish.

That should be fun.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Also Breschel there and Pozzato and Hincapie, Hutarovich, Pichot, Turgot

Van Avermaet, Hayman also

Incredible India, cheesy Farrar glasses..

 

[issoisso]

Farrar fell

And just to rub it home, eurosport cut to a glasses commercial with Farrar hyping the advantages of being able to see clearly
