You don't know how tense that last 5 minutes was. I had a bet against Vino to get top 3. So, top 3 out of 4... hmm. I am now £2.85 richer. |

Cobo and Duran lost time out of the top 20, as far as I can see. |

ruben, ruben! dont be so hmm.... critical on my comment!
but what happened with Samy :o (maybe some video)
What happened was after about 1-2 km of the climb a car was basicaly blocking the road and he was at hte back of the group of 20ish riders (obviously not feeling to well anyway) and that held up quite a few of the riders apart from the front 5 or 6. Anyway he wasn't up to it anyway.
thanks mate! but im still betting on him! because its real chance for Sammy and oranges to win gt. |

Frank Schleck is undergoing knee surgery on friday meaning he has abandoned the Vuelta and no Worlds in Mendrisio for him either quite obviously.
So the Schleck Brothers didn't complete, not a rather big surprise.

Good win that from Gerrans. Easily the smartest rider inside the final 5k. |

Robbie McEwen and Phil Anderson would be the first names to jump into my head. Don't know if they've done it or not, though they definitely both have GT stage wins.

Gesink sucks? Yeah sure, haven't seen Sanchez all year, and Gesink, 3th in the goldrace, 4th in the dauphinee. Well if he sucks, then 3/4 of the peloton would suck.... |

A shame that he's missing Mendrisio. But he's been complaining about that knee all year, so it's probably the wisest thing to do. |

Wondering here..what is wrong with Devolder..
TdF- nothing
Vuelta - nothing
worlds?
Can he peak only once in the year for Ronde van Vlaanderen?
and about poll..people finaly stoped to give votes for Andy Schleck
(for Xavier..this was not text edit..this was add extra text)

why
the only difference between Leif H en Devolder is that Devolder actually wins something
prevent hangovers --> stay drunk
pozzato, basically the most stupid cyclist around

Niether Hoste nor van Petegem ever said they would fight for a GT win
