Wow.... Langeveld is helping Rogers.

Why... I do not know.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Langeveld brings Rogers back, what the deuce?

Rabobank have a habit of doing that and collecting favours later.

Well, everyone has a habit of that, Rabobank just have done it in more high profile situations.

 

[santacruz]

damnit... uh thanks for helping rogers rabo.. damn u.

I can't believe those climbers didn't drop Hincapie, wtf were they thinking..

 

[kjetilraknerud]

Langeveld brings Rogers back, what the deuce?

Rogers agrees to lead him out for the stage win?

 

[Moondance]

Langeveld brings Rogers back, what the deuce?

Maybe he thinks a stage win is in the books for him.... Although the group currently isn't working to bring back the leaders, so that ain't gonna happen.

my feed keeps freezing, which means I have to sit through that damn advert over and over again.

"Full screen". The advert immediately disappears (for me at least)

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Langeveld now attacking the downhill, what the hell is he doing?

But cancer actually is a lonely word, you know.

 

[The Sheep]

Langeveld now attacking the downhill, what the hell is he doing?

Making sure the americans cant attack

 

[Moondance]

Langeveld now attacking the downhill, what the hell is he doing?

Stage victory.

Or dissuading the Americans from attacking.

It's Yaroslav and not Jaroslav. Don't even get the names right.

 

[Jamsque]

Rogers can't mess around now, Horner only needs another 30 seconds gap and a time bonus to snatch the lead.

 

[Moondance]

Why is RS chasing?!?! If the chase gets closed down Horner might take the overall!

 

[issoisso]

Nah. The front group will all start a mexican standoff for the stage and slow down.

 

[Moondance]

ZOMG RS....

Bruyneel is a 'genius' for sure.

 

[goggalor]

It's Yaroslav and not Jaroslav. Don't even get the names right.

It's Ярослав actually.

 

[issoisso]

In a sprint, Hincapie or Hesjedal? Likely Hincapie.

 

[Highlander]

Are they really chasing or is this one of those moves where you take the lead to slow the pace down to help the breakaway stay away? I can't watch it in my area, so I only know what the live feed says.

 

[Jamsque]

Nah. The front group will all start a mexican standoff for the stage and slow down.

I bet Horner would be thrilled with that explanation.

 

[issoisso]

Hah. Hincapie wasn't looking when Ryder jumped.

Nice one.

 

[Jamsque]

HES-JAY! Woop woop!

Well, I think they were hoping for one better than 2nd place over all, but two stage wins for Garmin are not to be sniffed at.

 

[Moondance]

No... They were definitely pulling. Both Levi and Pop.

 

[santacruz]

Wow, Hesjedal made Hincapie look like a choir boy compared to him.
