Tour de France 2011 Stage 9: Issoire - Saint-Flour 208 km

[TourOfSardinia]

OPL and garmin giving BMC some help. BMC should save their men for the latter part. so they can blow it up.

Same, but I don't think Gesink will recover in time. He's likely to lose more time today. I wonder what he will do once he realises his GC is messed up. Will he leave the TdF or go for a stage win? I suggest he leaves the Tour to focus on the Vuelta. Since he hasn't lost time yet today let's hope for the best.

It's a tough choice. He could stay, hope he recovers for the third week, and go for a stage win or perhaps the white jersey, OR he could retire and have a legitimate chance at winning the Vuelta.

People. Stop getting into stupid discussions like "He's a wheelsucker" "NO he is not!". It's pointless.
Evans was a wheelsucker back in the days. Last few years he has shown us a lot more than wheelsucking. Besides that 95% of the peloton are wheelsuckers if you look at it from a Ryo perspective.

the term wheelsucks doesnt get me - what gets me is that ok when 3/4 of the f**** feild do the same but not with Cadel, the double standards is what gets me! I have NEVER seen a forum go to town on any athlete then this one on Cadel Evens...why do you think I left in the first place!

If rest of the forum wants to hate him well go ahead, thats your right to an opinion but I will say one thing...when he wins this year Im gonna laugh so hard at the forum its not funny....and he believe that this is his year and I guareentee this forum wont like it one bit!

Can we please move on from this discussion, there are plenty of Evans threads to carry on with it.

Seriously, please stop. We don't care who started it, just stop responding to it here.

 

[AussieGoddess]

[Ferminal]

I've removed a few posts, I didn't make that request for no reason. The discussion is over, back to today.

 

[Gingerale]

gesink struggling today. sake of repeating myself - i can't believe he's still in, really, considering the crash.
