WTF. I only saw a 128 by 128 pixel square, but the sporza commentators said Ramussen so I believed them and switched back to the Vuelta

I'm, pretty sure my Sporza commentators said Goss, thus keeping the win in australia.
(Might be they wrongly corrected it to Rasmussen tho, I switched as well right away to Eurosport/Vuelta)

Nice win by Goss, he looks promising, hope he has some chances at Columbia next year.

i doubt he'll get a lot of chances in the major races. Columbia has some strong sprinters

pozzato, basically the most stupid cyclist around
RIP WW. Gone but not forgotten

he'll get a fair share i think, not the big ones (Cav) not even the 2nd rate ones (Greipel) but maybe things like the Tour of Britain and other minor events.
Columbia give most riders a fair chance, so let's see. (Especially with some big names going!)

I assume all the brits are watching it now, so no spoilers but Sutton of Garmin wins stage 1 of the Tour of Britian (Scunthorpe-York)

Goss is gonna be a great helper for Columbia in the cobbles next year, which is what he is mainly brought to the team for, I think. Other than that he is properbly gonne be 2nd or 3rd last man in their train at occations. I don't see him as a sprinter, he's more developing into a classic rider with a good sprint. Much the same way Alex Rasmussen is.

So, who do you think he would be a helper for? Marcel Sieberg or Bernhard Eisel? Their cobbles team is pretty weak now... Goss would probably be captain for G-W (EDIT: Together with Cav, of course).

Kritsky had a 40 second lead at the split, but he fell pretty hard and had to give up. A shame.

He really is a major, major prospect.
Although we must always be careful with russian youngsters.
It'll be very interesting to see how he does in the ProTour next year.

Romain Feillu wins a big, big race. HC. GP de Fourmies.
First time he beats good sprinters in a bunch sprint.
He's proving he can be more than a fighter with a reasonable kick....it's the first time he's actually showing he can maybe be a sprinter too.
