Tour of California, Stage 6: Solvang ITT, 24 km

[Moose McKnuckles]

haha as Levi rounded one of the corners Phil commented " that clean bottle gets everywhere" with mr bottle in the background

Did they snicker as they said "clean"?

 

[The Hitch]

Rendell says that Cancellara became better than Zabriskie because Zabriskie had other stuff to focus on and Fabian just on time trials.

Ever heard of Paris Roubaix? These things called cobbles?

No?

 

[Bavarianrider]

Tony would ahve murdered them

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Levi looked about ready to cry. I laughed at his misery.


This is the happiest I've ever seen Horner. So nice to see him do well.

Rendell said tomorows Cali stage is good to rival the tour of italy mountain stage.

How dumb can one guy get.

A man and a dwarf breakaway on the Mount Baldy?

Missed the whole thing. Did they say anything about the Hamilton stuff? They've been talking about it on local Austin sports radio and it's painful to listen to. These guys have absolutely no clue about cycling.

Ligget said "and we have some very bad news from yesterday, Tyler Hamilton has admitted to doping". Followed by a little speech about when Hamilton was caught and an almost carbon copy of what Lance said about how Ekimov now has a 3rd gold medal and good for him.

Lances name was for once, unmentioned.

Impressive TT by Sagan!

yeah all his muscles bulging and his nose dive across the line.

 

[greenedge]

Pathetic performance by Schleck

he just beat Day.
Go Rory!!!!!!!!

 

[greenedge]

Man all the Americans are good time triallists

 

[therhodeo]

I wonder how many seconds Horners ill fitting jersey cost him?

 

[Astana1]

Nice to see Dave Zabriskie getting back to what he does best.

 

[Eric8-A]

I had a good feeling today was going to be a day for DZ. I got a bit nervous when Levi was one second ahead of him at the checkpoint. But relief set in when Levi crossed the line.

 

[Tuarts]

Rory moves up to 3rd on the GC! Nice! On Stage 4 form, he should be able to defend.

 

[auscyclefan94]

Levi seemed really ****ed about what happened in the stage.

Pathetic performance by Schleck

I missed the entire stage I was out playing tennis. +2'15" isn't pathetic for Schleck. That is a guarenteed norm for him. He is an absolutely horrible time trialer. Thats where he loses his time at in the TDF. If he could time trial anything close to Contador he would already be a TDF winner, possibly two time.

Thats why I don't understand why he is even messing around in California. There are not enough big mountain stages for him to get back time like the European stage races or the GT's.

Maybe just to warm his legs for the Tour de Suisse.

The biggest surprise to me was Taylor Phinney. There is no way I would have expected him to be out of the top 5 let alone the top 20.

what did he say/do?

 

[auscyclefan94]

what did he say/do?

he seemed really annoyed that he got beaten, lost the record and didn't take much time out of horner to take the lead. I think there is a bit of rivalry between Levi and Horner.

I think Levi is going to find out tomorrow that he just needs to get over that.

heard this and it just made me gag.

that has to be the funniest thing i have ever heard

What is funny to me is Horner was in Yellow after Sierra Road and he was saying that the team was still riding for Levi. If I turn on the TV tomorrow and I see Chris Horner dragging Levi up Baldy I am gonna be ****ed.

Phil Liggett has forgotten more about cycling than he knew about it in the first place.

I hope Horner sticks his foot so deep up Levi's a$$, he knocks Lance's dingleberries out of Levi's teeth.
