Oh well.

Yes... Yesterday they said that Gesink "wasn't much of a climber" either. They ain't the quickest bunch.Jamsque said:Whoever is writing the ticker has forgotten that Flecha left Rabo for Sky...
I guess it is about points. Frank must of shut down as he would not finish 12 mins behind after being in the same break as Poels.Kwibus said:50 Wouter Poels (Ned) Vacansoleil Pro Cycling Team 0:12:26

DT, someone in the same break on the final climb who gets caught on the same part of the climb loses 12 minutes more than the other rider. Something is not right there. There was also a descnt. Surely you can see this logic.Dekker_Tifosi said:Frank even dropped on one of the climbs earlier in the break... *but luckily the pace dropped*
Anyway, useless discussion since ACF will never admit Poels being better than Frank this Tour de Suisse
Seriously? I remember the ticker mentioned the Vacansoleil rider going with Gesink and Schleck was "possibly Westra". Which I thought was quite funny.Moondance said:Yes... Yesterday they said that Gesink "wasn't much of a climber" either. They ain't the quickest bunch.

I don't know what they were thinking.18:21 CEST 10km/203.3km
Gesink isn't a great climber but he should make this.
