nieve should work too

valverde will work until they hit the climb at 4 kms to go

 

[Kwibus]

just wait for it

I agree. The feeling he's going to take it all is growing bigger and bigger.

 

[Bala Verde]

So basically flat.
2km at 6%
flat
1km at 8,5%

Could be positive for Kruiswijk, since on the flats with three others he might have an advantage over Valverde/Rui Costa.

 

[GazelleFormula]

I agree. The feeling he's going to take it all is growing bigger and bigger.

You mean fear.

 

[Fidolix]

I would really like to see CAS finish in the top 10 gc.

 

[cineteq]

Everybody is waiting [anxiously] to see what Levi's gonna do

 

[jens_attacks]

why the hell are they working with steve?

the stage will be won by the breakaway

 

[Broth3r]

Uh, I think you're forgetting that in order for Levi to win, he'll have to ATTACK.

 

[Parrulo]

why the hell are they working with steve?

the stage will be won by the breakaway

ya i am not understanding either

 

[Kwibus]

You mean fear.

Heh. Fear it is indeed.

Allthough I've come to appreciate Leipheimer last 2 years, if he wins the TdS today he did it with his good ol' leeching skills.
Certainly doesn't deserve it.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Kruijswijk group
Costa group +34s

Status quo

 

[Unkown]

Valverde doing a great job on the front considering its him vs 4 guys up the road.

 

[jens_attacks]

alejandro is doing a elluva job but will blow soon

 

[Dedelou]

Piti earning his keep .. Costa will owe him big time

 

[webbie146]

Uh, I think you're forgetting that in order for Levi to win, he'll have to ATTACK.

Might be a problem. In the dictionary of Levi the word 'attack' doesn't exist.

 

[will10]

ya i am not understanding either

anti-Movistar tactics. They've made enemies this year.

 

[Parrulo]

piti on his own vs 4 guys and he is not losing!!!!!!!

 

[Libertine Seguros]

I don't know about Fränk and Kiserlovski, but SaxoBank need UCI points, so Sørensen has every reason to try to improve his GC. Kiserlovski's not been working much anyway.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

How long can Valverde keep this up?

Will F Schleck attack (inevitable?)
Will Leecheimer save the most energy and win? (Most likely)

 

[Unkown]

And we get a rare sighting of the breakaway!

 

[goggalor]

why the hell are they working with steve?

the stage will be won by the breakaway

Why not? They want to move up in the overall.

 

[Bala Verde]

ya i am not understanding either

The only reason I can think of is Top 10 GC (especially for Swiss Frank)

 

[DominicDecoco]

Can't believe we haven't had a view of the front group in an hour now...

 

[Pharazon]

Look! The leaders!

 

[LaFlorecita]

Piti so awesome.
