Tour de France Stage 2 Brussels - Spa, 192 km Monday, July 5 2010

[El Imbatido]

VDV has been down

 

[sadfitty]

VdV crashed... shocker....

 

[Bernardus]

Shit Andy...

ACF was right after all, though it wasn't the Schleck he meant I think.

how was he right?? it wasn't the schleck he meant, gesink and menchov didn't crash.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Not surprising to see excellent bike handlers like Cancellara, Hushovd and Freire in the "peloton". I wonder what will happen tomorrow...

Bull. It's pure luck

Menchov and Gesink are excellent bike handlers according to your logic then??
Because they are in front while known for falling.

This was pure bad luck for Schleck and co.

Schlecklet looks okay.

 

[El Imbatido]

Here comes the Saxo car to help andy

 

[Parrot23]

Canc doing the right thing to slow this down. Anyone know?

Seems to be correct, sporting thing to do (even if it's for his team, but others too)?

 

[El Imbatido]

That can't be right......andy 3min behind canc?

 

[thrawn]

schleck group apparently 3 mins down on cancellara's

 

[53 x 11]

[Mellow Velo]

The first guys: luck + bike handling
The next guys: pure luck
The rest: bad luck/poor handling

4'18" back to Andy

 

[Moondance]

how was he right?? it wasn't the schleck he meant, gesink and menchov didn't crash.

He said Schleck

That sneaky Aussie

 

[53 x 11]

schleck group apparently 3 mins down on cancellara's

isnt that 3 mins behine leaders?

 

[roundabout]

Looks like Le Mevel has aalso been down

 

[Carl0880]

With all the chaos this has almost guaranteed that Chavanel, Roelandts or Monfort will win the stage and maybe even take the yellow. This gap may get up to 2 minutes before they can organize a chase.

 

[Cobblestones]

Just went out to make some coffee and I missed everything.

 

[53 x 11]

they are all shutting it down.

You shouldnt push after a motorbike caused an accident

 

[Mellow Velo]

Neutralised by the riders.
I haven't seen any Shack riders except Kloden or Contador.

Now Cervelo don't follow the script.

Armstrong has definitely crashed, maybe Contador too!

 

[luckyboy]

Can anyone see Retirement Shack putting guys on the front of the peloton now to take advantage of this?

 

[Moondance]

Roelandts and Chavanel have just been gifted a victory.

 

[roundabout]

no sympathy from cervelo

 

[kjetilraknerud]

Cancellara wants to take it easy, Cervelo don't care.

 

[Beech Mtn]

Lance crashed
