[bicing]

Cav retires??? Why?

The Vuelta TV declared "retardo".

 

[maltiv]

There goes Cav's chances for worlds!

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Cav retires??? Why?

Probably sick. Very surprising otherwise.

 

[just some guy]

Cav

Lang

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

break wont win.

rabobank pushing. interesting.

 

[hatcher]

Same problems as Goss.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Rabobank have six men on the front now! And they are eating up the lead. Why? Who knows what goes on in the mind of a Rabo DS.

 

[jobiwan]

Maybe Goss and Cavendish both had really bad meals?

After the time loss for Kruizwijk the other day they may be looking to make a a big selection on tthe climb so they can gain some time back on other favourites?

Probably some genius plan to get that 8th spot for Mollema or Kruijswijk or something

 

[roundabout]

who else started all 3 GT

Cav

Lang

Farrar

guess it's ToB for Cav and Kittel to clean up in the flat sprints

 

[l.Harm]

For the stage I suppose.

What they obv won't get though.

 

[sublimit]

He was out the back about 10 K ago without any help, Long way in the heat on your own.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Cav retires??? Why?

Vuelta obviously is a **** race, only Greipel does those!

 

[Mellow Velo]

So where does Cav find preparation races, at the time when we hit a quite time in the calander?
TOB just got bigger?!

 

[Cobblestoned]

Probably sick. Very surprising otherwise.

He was moaning since the warm-up for the TTT.
Something wrong. Ill or totally unprepared.

Perhaps he spent too much time on/with Peta.

 

[auscyclefan94]

At least HTC aren't going to waste their time sending back Howard to help Cav.

 

[ingsve]

Same problems as Goss.

Goss had diarrhea and Cavendish has diarrhea of the mouth so I guess you're right.

 

[bicing]

Awesome. I booked a trip already.

Just booked a trip.

Great to hear! I'd just advise - try to avoid Bucharest if you can, and Constanta is very nice this time of year.

Tour of Britain?

 

[Michielveedeebee]

Cav retires??? Why?

same disease as Goss me thinks

 

[Moondance]

Probably some genius plan to get that 8th spot for Mollema or Kruijswijk or something

While I don't understand this either i'm at least happy that they're doing something, anything after their bleh Tour performance

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

The Rabobank DS has clearly decided that a six man train just wasn't cutting it and so a seventh has been added.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Sean Kelly also baffled by Rabobank's strategy.

 

[bicing]

They could be shedding riders for Barredo to go for a stage win, he loves this climb.
