So does anyone know the race situation? How's cadel going?

He's reported to be racing... that's all we know!

what an incredible failure.

it's okay, it's pishing down at the end now, so we're all staying awake so they can tell us who won

Probably sucking Frank's wheel.

has more to do with icing on the wings of the fixed wing. completely different covering a race at this altitude.

Yep.. So exciting.

It's shame Basso isn't there for the sprint. Can Gesink sprint anything lately?

 

[slcbiker]

Those of you who were complaining about the UT coverage, it wasn't any worse than this, and at least we had real racing.
Someone needs to have a discussion with the CO folks about course design.

Yeah, the only one being challenged here in the hellicopter pilot

There were some good attacks, particularly Infantino and the TVG, VV, LL one that got away for awhile, but instead of having the so-called queen stage end on the mountain, they threw in a long, smooth downhill that brought it all back together again.

All that effort expended for group finish.... meh. The race organizers blew this one. It could have been a fantastic stage.

 

[hfer07]

not even race radio is informing of the current situation to those imbeciles doing the broadcasting? damn get their sh!t together for the sake of the almighty

Cause he's such a great downhiller obviously.

I'm incredibly close to saving this post.

In an uphill sprint at the end of a mountain he's good. But not on this kind of finish.

Expect Henao or something

He deserves that title. I would keep it!

 

[mewmewmew13]

umm...is it not possible to just have someone chatting on the back of a moto??? at this point I could be happy with that.

I hear the crowd yelling..but they are prolly just drinking to pass the time

 

[jobiwan]

8.5 kilometers to go.

 

[trevim]

I'm incredibly close to saving this post.

How is that happening?

 

[goggalor]

That's not a bear, that's a boy... in a bear hat.

 

[cineteq]

8km to go...

I wanted to see a Tour guy winning so that they can't say the race is so hard that not even the best riders in the world can win

 

[*G*K*S*]

Undecided yet, but it's Frank's to lose.

 

[Amsterhammer]

Can Gesink sprint anything lately?

Not a bicycle race in any case.

 

[zapata]

F this. I had expectations for this stage, because of the previews, but i didn't realize the big climb was 30 kms of false flat. And now we don't even get to see the bunch sprint.
