Good to see someone from Saxo Bank up there. This race give some sort of WT points or just the WT calendar races gives them?Grzdylu said:2nd Navarro

Come on, it's certainly impressive but this was hardly a big race. Short stages, lack of big riders. Excellent results but we have to be aware of the competition.theyoungest said:This Tiernan-Locke guy seems to be the real deal... I know Sky have set themselves the goal of developing Colombian climbers, but maybe there's a spot for him next year.
Lack of big riders, yes, but still there's some pretty decent climbers he seems to have just ridden off his wheel twice in this race.trevim said:Come on, it's certainly impressive but this was hardly a big race.

I agree with that. I just noticed that this wasn't a very usual race.theyoungest said:Lack of big riders, yes, but still there's some pretty decent climbers he seems to have just ridden off his wheel twice in this race.

pmcg76 said:Yeah but this guy is a British domestic pro, imagine one of the domestic Portugese guys from Carmin or some other team winning Tour of the Med, I think it would be considered very impressive.
Navarro isn't surprising. Wait until you see Noval on the Tour top-10.The Hitch said:lol watch Riis transform Navarro and Hernandez into Rodriguez and Moreno
After beating Tosatto in the sprint on the velodrome under the eyes of the 3rd place finisher Jesus Hernandez.roundabout said:Nah, Noval is going to win Paris-Roubaix.

i expected garzelli to take this with an iron fist but it's good he has the form,tirreno will be nice(if it doesn't snow on abruzzo of course)
Vuelta a Leon never lies! (his stage win there was more impressive to me as his whole Tour of Britiain riding)theyoungest said:This Tiernan-Locke guy seems to be the real deal... I know Sky have set themselves the goal of developing Colombian climbers, but maybe there's a spot for him next year.
