Where is Roche? Or where is TJVG?

Re:

Rojas what are you doing, with Soler behind you?

What do you mean?
He will be guaranteed second if they get away and Rojas is certainly faster than Soler - he even has a chance against Trentin.
He's a very under appreciated rider, if a little old. Never really achieved the results that his talents and abilities would suggest (as Mark Cavendish says in his autobiography)

EDIT: so much for beating Trentin. That was horrific. But point remains.

When did Nibali and Froome became best friends?

 

[bigcog]

Thought there would be a lot more crashes on that descent.

 

[fowlyetti]

Rojas must have a very small brain

 

[SafeBet]

Won't be easy for Cassani to choose a captain for Bergen.

Re: Re:

Nibali's downhill ability is way overrated

This might be true but the downhill helped him win 2 Grand Tours and a Monument. Tough record to beat.

2 gt's? 2016 giro and?

2014 Tour; Contador crashed on the descent in stage 10.

So you should count 2010 vuelta

 

[shalgo]

Impressive that Woods stayed with the group on that descent. Much better than in the Tour de Suisse.

Re:

Froome is bulying nibali.
Wtf did rojas in that sprint?

Knowing Nibali I doubt Froome could bully him, buy him dunno :lol:

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

For Gods sake, Zakarin and De La Cruz just allowed back in.

Re:

Wtf did rojas in that sprint?

To be fair Trentin will win a one on one with Rojas 999 times out of 1000. What else could he have done? (I guess he could have grabbed Trentin's saddle as he went by)

 

[jsem94]

God damn Sky train. Too good.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Rojas doesn't have anything close to the fast sprint he used to have.

 

[bigcog]

Roche takes time ?

 

[StephenC2020]

Nico!!!

He shouldn't have led him out, although he would indeed have probably lost anyway.

Nico Roche fair play! I wondered why Trek and Orica were riding

Re:

Where the hell did Roche come from?

 

[Eclipse]

Surprise Nico Roche lol

 

[jsem94]

Sneaky.

 

[Vasilis]

I guess Sky missed that Roche went off?

While he's a shadow of what he used to be, it's shocking that someone so talented can have only 13 pro wins.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Well deserved 30 seconds for Roche. The only guy other than Nibali who actually tried anything.

 

[Matteo.]

Re:

To keep the jersey. Roche was behind only 1 minute

 

[deValtos]

Haha random Roche, I don't think Sky knew he was out front.
