Tirreno-Adriatico 2011 Stage 5: Chieti - Castelraimondo - 240km

[sublimit]

BMC are the new Footen.
Actually they had 3 decent riders too be fair to them and not 1.

 

[The Sheep]

Just saw Lars Boom and Andy Schleck, they got dropped.

bit soon for Lars

 

[ak-zaaf]

bit soon for Lars

200km done.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Don't worry, I still hope they crash and burn.


Except for Ballan, he's cool.

You feel a disturbance in the force?

Having just one person barrack for BMC at this time of night is an anomaly. Having everyone including the dutch mafia barrack for them tells me something is really ****ed up!

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

200km done.

It's so predictable, you can set your watch on it

 

[The Hitch]

200km done.

I think the joke is that its a surprise that Boom gets dropped as early as Andrew

 

[auscyclefan94]

my prediction, breakaway will stay away.

 

[insideout leadout]

I think it's a trojan horse. As soon as you open the door they will steal your BMC gear and burn them up.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Gesink now in blue, no more jacket. Looks good to me. But no teammates!

 

[eljimberino]

moviestar showing their tactical genius again

 

[The Hitch]

lol.

Kirby just asked if the Vacon rider is Tom de Gendt.

I kid you not

De Gendt is so awesome, he is in two races at the same time.

 

[The Hitch]

Freire (or as the ES advert calls him- Oscar Ferrer) a lone ranger once again.

 

[auscyclefan94]

The gap is cleraly less than 2'28''. The lead rider is going much slower than the peleton.

 

[Andy99]

lol.

Kirby just asked if the Vacon rider is Tom de Gendt.

I kid you not

yeah, he did the same yesterday. What a numpty.

 

[The Sheep]

lol.

I kid you not

So that's why he wasn't up front with the other Tommy

 

[ak-zaaf]

lol.

I kid you not

Of course not, he'd be in the attack group.

 

[insideout leadout]

The final ramp @ 11% will probably kill this breakaway.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Chase HARDER!!!!!!!!!

what's cadel doing in 2nd wheel?

Old habits die hard?

 

[sublimit]

Perhaps they cloned Thomas De Gendt.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

The non-Carlton announcer just pronounced "Niemiec" as "nye-meck". I cringed.

 

[ak-zaaf]

Perhaps they cloned Thomas De Gendt.

We need an army of Thomas de Gendts.

Carlton Kirby needs to stop reading fans' tweets about their babies, expectant wives/girlfriends, and who went to school where. None of which has anything to do with cycling.
