Why is Menchov riding in the break, doesn't make sense :confused:

Maybe so Katusha will have a reason to not do any work at the front?
Or maybe Menchov thinks/knows that the break is his only chance of winning anything.

Who here think Contador will attack big style tomorrow?

I do. I don't think it's a style of Alberto to receive attack after attack and not attacking back. Unless he not feeling good then wheelsucking won't be a bad idea :D. Now is wet weather...oy, I see alberto is smilling ear to ear...!! :D

Harmon talking complete ********

1) Mountain jersey not yet mathematically wrapped up.
2) Obviously Purito and Valverde will not be contesting the sprints. There's a 20-man break!

Give him the sack.

2 years ago he did the TDF on Versus. This summer I don't recall seeing him on Versus (NBCSports now). If I'm right, someone was paying attention:D

Harmon and Kelly discussing the low number of abandons made me realize that there have not been very many crashes this Vuelta. Certainly not anywhere near the demolition derby that is the first week of the TdF.

I don't know those.

But I certainly have never seen anybody as bad as Harmon.

phil ligget paul sherwen and bob roll are legendarily bad, but i guess that's what can be expected from people wearing a yellow bracelet on their wrists so tightly that doctors have already considered amputating their hands due to lack of blood circulation.
