Probably means they'll drop all their own team, first.

They are going to make my proud today. I'm sure!

I'm not, but it would be nice for once!

Probably means they'll decimate the field, and then watch the strongest riders in the race ride away.

You know when Rabobank announces stuff like this it will come to nothing.

Kelderman crashed, moved to hospital in Lleida

Right on cue, Keldermann crashes and is off to hospital.

 

[classicomano]

Goddamn it!

@eisengal
"Kelderman crasht and abandoned the race in catalunya. On his way to hospital, wound above his eyebrow, we will update asap."

That guy has had his share of crashes as well in his short career so far. He's Dutch, that must be it.

 

[wirral]

oh god here we go...

Kelderman has a cut on his eyebrow (according to biciclismo).

 

[wirral]

Tiralongo crashes

Sorry, Longo not Tiralongo.

If teams really wanted to put the pressure on GreenEdge it needed to be at the start on that Cat 2 climb so that a threatening break went up the road.

Looking at the break that went away they probably can't believe their luck

Rabobank really put the pressure on Albasini now. I mean losing Kelderman is a stroke of genius that will put Albasini in panic..which wheel to follow now?

 

[Beech Mtn]

that picture is hilarious

Didn't Tchmil have the team do a Riis-style survival, team-bonding winter training camp in Siberia once? That's what this looks like.

Easy. Someone explained it above. Follow Leipheimer.

Fuglsang climbed really well in the Dauphine 2009. Haven't seen him do that since.

I don't think Fuglsang has ridden the same since his terrible crash into that truck parked on the side of the road, where he had the giant hole in his leg.

Anyway, what happened the grand plans for Kloeden to be the Giro leader for RSNT?

Do that in a downhill and you find yourself in the mongolenwaaijer

Also called the Rabobank team.

That will only lead to the two of them going around in circles on the same spot on the road.

Also called the Coldeportes team.
