Tour de Romandie 2012

[El Pistolero]

LL Sanchez wins

Meersman cries

Not every cyclist is happy with a second place.

 

[LaFlorecita]

That was disappointing... Big first group.

 

[dlwssonic]

LLS is delivering the goods for rabo finally.

 

[The Sheep]

Rabofail their head honcho wiggins didn't win

 

[will10]

Sanchez up to 2nd at 1"

 

[hrotha]

Lulu got the killer instinct back, if not his climbing and TTing skills.

 

[Moncoutie]

Lulu in yellow then?

 

[DenisMenchov]

This was uphill???? For most of last 5km I thought they were going downhill, nice win for LLS though.

 

[will10]

Hah! **** the haters!

Do you struggle with jokes in general?

 

[SantiBotero]

Today Sky made the lead out for Rabobank

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

If Rabobank went for Mollema, than Mollema would have been leader now.

He rode the fastest sprint. If he started in LL Sanchez position he'd finish 5 bikelengths ahead and Mollema would be the leaderi n the GC

 

[Gloin22]

Queen Stage of Romandie done

 

[insideout leadout]

LLS is delivering the goods for rabo finally.

LLS alone got more wins than BMC this season, not counting TTT.

 

[will10]

Group of 30 to sprint for the win tomorrow

LLS is delivering the goods for rabo finally.

He has won stages for them before nothing short of a miracle can provide what Rabo wanted from lls at this point. I assume they wanted more success in a GC sense. Still a good win, Rabo did well today. Fluke I assume

 

[goggalor]

So does anyone think there might be some action tomorrow, or is the race just that dull this year? I see a couple of 1. cat. climbs but no MTF.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Stage races this year have mostly been not that good.

It should be better then today (very hard I know) I think, still not a great stage. Poor course

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Meersman looks to be coming back to early season form

He should ensure Lotto get a win at the Giro

 

[Sophistic]

the profiles are pretty misleading, the toughest climb is actually in the ITT with 5k@~9%.

 

[El Pistolero]

Yeah, he gets form quickly after his knee injury.

 

[barmaher]

Stage races this year have mostly been not that good.

Nothing has been this bad, though. This has been absolute scutter.

Catalunya had its Queen Stage cancelled.

 

[will10]

Top 10 fromtoday anyone?

 

[Kvinto]

That was close to a foul. It looked like Meersman stopped pedalling for a while which costed him a win.

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Not great at all.
