I can see this ending in a total FU.
What is going to happen of these final climbs, once Popovych or Haimar Z pulls off the front?
At that point, Astana could have 4 of the final dozen riders selected.
5 or 6kms to the top, Bertie gets on the radio:
Cont: "OK, I have the great legs, time for me to go, Johan?"
Hog: " Errmm, let me check and get back to you.........."
Cont: "Hello, hello.......Johan, can I go now, please?...."
Hog: "Lance, are you OK? Levi?.......er...what's the name of my German guy, again...yeah....Klodi?...."
Lance: " I'm F8cked, keep my little Spanish beatch on his lead and put the sausage eater on the front..."
Klodi: "Hey, I've just had my refill und am going quicker than that old Texan nohorn....I'm not screwing mit my last big chance, before comrade Vino returns...put von Leipheimer up there to work for a change..."
Levi: "Hey! I've got my hands full, sucking on Cadel's wheel...."
Cont: " Boss, boss, I don't want to attack, now."
Hog: "Why is that, little Spanish beatch boy?"
Cont: "Because Andy Schleck went up the road 5 minutes ago...."
There is a serious issue in there.......somewhere.
