Cerny into 1st. Looks like it was a good training camp at Mt. Teide

Probably been motor Remco-pacing the whole time.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Has there been a camera motor with anyone in the current top 5?

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Cav is starting his sixth Tour de Romandie already.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Ayuso was really good in the prologue last year as well.

Good that he's back.

Didn't expect him to fly like this in his first race after coming back from that injury.

New best time from Cerny, looks like the old, drunk shepard and his herding dog Remco have made the sheepherd run a bit faster...

Why must Tissot Timing always crash at some point during a TT?

Has Froome gone yet? I don't see him in the preliminary top-20 on PCS.

 

[Berflamand]

I think on a good day I could have beaten that time from Rui Costa. Always knew I had that WT level in me!

You need to look in the buttom-20.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Bernal matches Higuita's time, could have been worse.

Interested to see what Vernon does here, beat Cerny by 7 seconds to win last year's equal-length prologue in Slovakia.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Expected a bit more from Mäder, tbh.

also broke a 5 mile Strava record back at home last week, so seems to have prepared specifically for this

Disappointing Carlos Rodri isn't here, but Bernal and Ayuso should be very interesting to follow! Hopefully this race can kickstart a comeback culminating in a good Vuelta later (I dont expect Bernal to go to France..)

Anyways, how's Carlos? Anybody have a clue? Because looking at the team, he should honestly have the biggest upside this Tour, but its a problem if he isn't able to race.. obviously. Then youre looking at Pidcock and Felipe Martinez, and I dont really believe in either. This year that is - I thought Felipe Martinez would be better than G and Yates last year, and that turned out to be a pretty bad prediction after all.

Not making it, but good time.

Apparently the guy who's gonna win the GC just started.

 

[Samamba]

Suter good time incoming

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Woods TTing like he's on a unicycle again.

 

[Samamba]

There's being bad at TTing, but there is also beging like Woods at TTing

 

[QueenStagiaire]

He really is either first or last here!

 

[RedheadDane]

Woods TTing like he's on a unicycle again.

Again? He used to unicycle too?

Suter good time incoming

good time, but I think he hoped for a bit more. Suter already mentioned it as a goal during Coppi e Bartali, at least

 

[Samamba]

Vauquelin worse than expected.

Izagirre really bad too. Lots of Liege riders performing pretty bad it seems. Not that surprising.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Lutsenko is not even under eight minutes.
