One of the better tours of recent years

Great job by Nibali. Never lost his head and minimized the lost. And no time bonuses. Quite good for him. |

That may be true, but that isn't saying much. The Giro was much better this year, and the Vuelta is shaping up to be the same. |

That's the strongest endorsement of Deadpool's point you could've come up with.

This years Giro is probably the best GT i've ever watched. Vuelta, too early to say.
Tour.. well it was alright

WTF. Cricket commentator talking about cycling
"Welcome to Cricket, a great day for Quick Step in the cycling and Mosquera taking time from Nibali, but he's still in the Maillot Rojo" Thats odd..

Bob Dole.
Interestingly, it was justified in that case. He felt his advisors were forcing him to be a public persona that's nothing like the real him. Hence the 3rd person. The persona, not him.
Also, he should've worn a Flava Flav neck-watch and gone as Dolemite

I am getting more and more impressed by Peter Velits. He sat on Nibali's wheel all the way after Sastre's attack. |

Best ending to cycling transmission I've ever seen:
1996 Vuelta stage 1. 4 way photo finish for the bunch sprint win and the leader's jersey. And the winner is..........see you tomorrow.

Watched the last 5 km live. Great win for Barredo, and a great stage. Tough that Mosquera only picked up 11 seconds, as that was a great ride. And except for the fact that the guy who probably would of/should of won the race crashed out, this could turn out to be one of the best Vuelta's ever.
2010 might just have one of the best Vuelta's and one of the best Giro's ever, but unfortunately is going to be remembered for a good but not great Tour.
The field is of very poor quality in this years Vuelta though. It didn't help that Anton dropped out, Bruseghin and Uran got injured, Menchov was in not into good shape and Andy was more interested in drinking. |

best would be not to answer for that.
Still this year GT's ..Giro was best ever for my cycling knowledge..Tour was beter then year ago..still. Tour is most booring GT at 2010..Vuelta is not over.
It still looking nice..even after Anton drop out. |
