Isn't normaly to get easy top10 with sprinters like Eisel or Ciolek? And when I said improve i was meaning victories not just top 10

hehe, it's just im used to being happy with a top 20 i suppose

Ok, I will not responde at this

And man don't you sleep 'cause in Romania is f*cking 3 A.M. and I'm tired so I'll go to bed
Tomorrow I hope I can get an another win just to irritate you

Nah, it's only 1:20am here, so I guess the party next door will keep me up for at least another 2 hours....

poor you

It was a very good estimate. They did finish around then.

Oh, I know at 3AM you called the police so they've got to stop

Ok, returning to my story.. I will post the stage to of the Paris Nice in 20 minutes, I think

Paris Nice Stage 2


The breakaway. Auge, a big name is there


Mark Cavendish is dropped of after a few hills, he is'n in a good shape


Boom and Hincapie are trying to place Kirchen in a good position


With 3km to go Kirchen is in the best position

Nooooo


Now I don't have a good sprinter for Tirreno so Sieberg or Hagen will be the main sprinter 'cause Ciolek and Greipel are both lower than 65 points fitness

How long will he be injured?

I have a mithycal doctor and he will be back in a couplle of days. Still don't know if I can use him in Tirreno

I think he'll be ok after a scratched forearm - mythical doc or no mythical doc.

With a light injury, as far as i know, their fitness isn't affected. So he'll be fine

Yep, search again after playing the stage 3 of the Paris Nice and found this

Good start with Kirchen in PN

Nice! Remember to not sprint with Kirchen on the flat stages, except if you want the sprint jersey. He can recover on the flat stages
