[Fetisoff]

Clarke extends to 10:50!!!!

OK this has all the make-up of a disaster for GreenEdge....



I LIKE IT!!!

 

[PCutter]

He's the Aussie Spartacus!!!

Which team is he most likely to ride for in 2013?

 

[auscyclefan94]

The finger pointing will be going on after the stage.

 

[PCutter]

Oh lord, Im going to have to stay up and watch the highlights tonight (still cant get them on my Mac even with VLC - but Im a muppet) which will make tomorrows 4.30am alarm for my ride VERY difficult

 

[PCutter]

Which team is he most likely to ride for in 2013?

He's not from the AIS background, he's from running, via Genesys....so maybe he'll join Garmin with Haas and Steele

 

[auscyclefan94]

9 minutes, 30kms to go.

I have a feeling that the 10mins 50 seconds gap was wrong.

 

[Fetisoff]

Which team is he most likely to ride for in 2013?

Whichever team will be the most desperate for the points.... Could be Vacansoleil for all we know

Really would love to see Clarke pull this out... would teach Green-Edge and BMC a lesson for sure.

 

[auscyclefan94]

23kms, 8 mins 50 seconds

 

[DenisMenchov]

23km to go.

 

[Ferminal]

So 20km to go for Clarke.

Probably win by 2-3minutes unless the peloton give up.

 

[auscyclefan94]

FFS, these gaps are going up and down and make no sense whatsovever

 

[auscyclefan94]

8 mins 50 seconds 29km....this makes no sense.

The radio guys should give an accurate check once they pass the bell.

Sometimes they are quoting the distance to go for the peloton and other times it is Clarke. Clarke is definitely on the last lap though.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

8 mins 50 seconds 29km....this makes no sense.

It's 8:50 with 20 to go apparently.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Pat Jonker is really talking bull**** now.

 

[royalpig180]

8 mins 50 seconds 29km....this makes no sense.

Radio commentators should tell us when the peleton goes by. Not sure if they'll give us a gap though...

 

[auscyclefan94]

It's 8:50 with 20 to go apparently.

Official twitter says it was 8 mins 50 with 29 kms to go.

26km 8 mins 10 seconds

 

[Ferminal]

So it's 7-8minutes at the finish line.

Splitting up big time!!!

Leigh Howard on the front.

 

[royalpig180]

So it's 7-8minutes at the finish line.

Sounds about right based on what the various confused bits of information we've gotten...

 

[PCutter]

Pat Jonker, the Aussie-Dutch mafia

 

[Ferminal]

Wilco putting the pain on...
