Tour de France Stage 2 (3/7/11) - Les Essarts 23km TTT

[The Sheep]

That's because DT started boasting before BMC had ridden

 

[sublimit]

LOL...you're kidding right?

You expected Shack to win? they went top 5 so he was right.

 

[The Hitch]

lol. BMC Owning it.

With Samus elimination Cadel - old rider on weaker team whos had bad luck, is definately a rider i can get behind.

 

[No_Balls]

Cancellara to neutralize? The Shlecketts position on a bike truly is awful.

 

[Bala Verde]

Evans looking to upgrade from green to yellow.

 

[BYOP88]

He's been ordered to hang out at the back so when he falls he doesn't take the whole team down with him

You make a very good point.

 

[Anonymous]

Hmm. Evens has a chance to put AC behind the 8-ball.

 

[GroupDK]

Contador and Chris Anker pulled the most for them.

yeah, especially contador has clearly something to prove today..

Cant wait for the mauntains..

HTC - Highroad finishes fast!!
3rd at 5 seconds

They gained 10 seconds in the final part!!!

GODDAMN EISEL COST ME €50

 

[Havetts]

HTC 3rd, if only Eisel were there and Ruben was a lot richer

 

[Ferminal]

Unlucky for HTC, Eisel probably would have been the difference?

 

[Tyke1968]

Canc-Mortals-weedy climbers

HTC close good effort.

 

[superconfex]

That was a strong finish by HTC

 

[Scansorial]

Nice ride for BMC so far. Could be a tight battle for yellow.

 

[Carl0880]

Now both the Schleck's are just hanging on.

That is no surprise, 2 years ago Cancellara I think was on the front of TTT the entire last 6 km if I recall right. Its their best strategy, get behind Spartacus, grab the whip and tell him to put out the power.

 

[Maxiton]

BMC going well. God, it would be amazing if Evans won the Tour. Too soon to say, but so far looking great.

 

[Anonymous]

Great job by HTC considering...

 

[Tuarts]

WOW super fast from BMC

Haha, be interesting if they can keep it up.

HTC now 3rd

Thor turning red spots into gold...

 

[Bavarianrider]

Eisel you ****ing Austrian hillbilly :mad

 

[No_Balls]

Evans looking to upgrade from green to yellow.

Very good if so. Let the old man carry it a while. Let BMC do the work until the mountains.

 

[Jamsque]

Unlucky for HTC, Eisel probably would have been the difference?

Could well have been, he has a huge engine. Oh well, spilt milk.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Fränk and Andy are not doing anything but Leopard at 8 seconds.

 

[Ferminal]

Why doesn't Spartacus just HTFU and drop Frank already?

 

[BYOP88]

Leotard down to 5 riders and the Schlecks.

 

[Captain Awesome]

Was it Voigt that was dropped?
