Ticker says it has gone up to 31" for Barredo - EDIT no down to 14

 

[Tyke1968]

Lance has won enough!

Go Barredo.

 

[Ten Percent Grade]

this is just sad

 

[Ramira]

This is getting exciting in that half the world prays for LA to win it, and the other half is pinning voodoo dolls for anyone at all to win it but Lance

Hmm there's also the people who really don't care about it anymore and hope the actual strongest rider wins, personally I'm pulling for Barredo or maybe Moreau (and I guess v.d. Walle for my southern neighbours) but if neither of them wins I couldn't care less if Armstrong wins or not.

So... is sitting on only bad if you don't like the rider?

I'm just trying to figure out logic here of people who don't want Lance to win because he's not doing enough work... but want De Weert who's done less.

I'm hoping for Moreau... but I can't see how that would happen.

It's got nothing to do with who's working and who isn't. I just want riders I like to win (and don't want riders I don't like to win), regardless of whether they're sitting on or not.

No, De Weert has his team mate. So he won't pull to catch his team mate!

Are you that much of a muppet?

I don't want Lance to win because I don't want Lance to win...... no logic required whatsoever.

 

[nicholaaaas]

[Bala Verde]

Doh! Missed that little fact.

 

[Jamsque]

down to 9 seconds with 2km to go, it's gonna be close!

 

[superconfex]

come on Prince

 

[nia O'Malley]

Barredo ftw!

 

[Ramira]

v.d. Walle is sitting very good if they take Barredo he's going to jump.

 

[badboyberty]

Fedrigo for the win, Bbox best Tour ever.

 

[Bala Verde]

they got him! NOOO, come on!

 

[Jamsque]

Vai Damiano, vai!

 

[Bala Verde]

the uphill section killed him....

 

[The Hitch]

Damn its over.
Hope Barredo likes the combativity prize

 

[dgodave]

Go Moreau!

[Ramira]

Fedrigo has the wheel of Cunego, I'm thinking he'll take it.

 

[Tyke1968]

Cunego be a king!

 

[The Hitch]

Cunego surely

Come on Moreau.
