Phil Ligget:

'Froome and Wiggins - sounds like a firm of solicitors'

hahaha

 

[Warhawk]

These guys are ridiculous.

 

[goggalor]

Very good from Jurgen. No idea why he was so crap in the first TT.

Why "very good"? He's just as crap this time.

 

[Koba80]

Chradley Friggins 1-2 it is.

 

[on3m@n@rmy]

Chradley Friggins 1-2 it is.

did Phil say that too?

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

3'21 GC margin

 

[gatete]

ohh Shut up you friggins

 

[TeoSheva]

Chapeau Wiggo!

 

[cineteq]

Wiggins' victory salute is reminiscence of Landis' few years ago.

 

[will10]

Immense .

Fair point; I was measuring him agains TJ in the absense of a Wiggins time at that point.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Only changes in top 20 gc: Zubeldia takes Evans for 6th, Kloden takes Roche for 11th.

so wiggins put just 20 seconds less into nibali than contador did in Giro 2011. as john mc enroe was so famous for saying, 'you cannot be SERIOUS'

 

[on3m@n@rmy]

friggin great ride by Wiggins.

So next year I wonder if the ASO will pick a parcours that has more emphasis on climbing and less on ITTs.

 

[dlwssonic]

Ridonkulous
TJ could have gotten that 4th, but 5th and the white is not bad at all!
Btw has evans been sick the last few days?
Stomach flu??

Yes for sure that's what it looked like

 

[patrick767]

Wiggins put nearly two minutes into the 3rd place rider on the stage. Incredible. He's untouchable against the clock. Nibali could have taken several minutes in the Pyrenees and Wiggins would have still won.

Chapeau!

Different years, different courses

If Wiggins was on the same course as the Giro 2011 he wouldn't even have taken more than 2 minutes.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Froome to complete his set of 2nd places at the Giro then?

 

[goggalor]

Wiggins > Froome. Sure Froome could've dropped Wiggins in the mountains but we don't know by how much, could've been only a few seconds. Wiggins took 2 minutes out of him in the TTs. Chapeau.

And Nibali had a good ride for him. Wiggins is just so far beyond the competition in the ITTs.

I know, but at the same time.

yeah, and I'm looking forward to next year already

 

[dlwssonic]

Don't be a july fan
Much more to look forward too!
After this year's tour, evans might be more hungry to go for the win at other races.
