thats &a 'relief' . maybe his condition isn't so bad after all.
looking forward to tomorrows stage. who will be the first favourites that crack?
why don't they ever go to the very top of the sierra nevada? thats around 3200 metres. Would be interesting to see.

I just mentioned that to a friend who had a big bet on Klöden for the GC.
His reaction was something like this:

Thanks Cuxu, I didn't know where to find it.
I know he had bad luck (and he's not having any lately) but this image is just so excessive, extravagant and extrem.
Forgive me Stijn fans.

Time for Degenkolb now.  |

You were right after all, I_Mayo. Still don't get why does he abandon if he isn't ill.

I wonder what he will do now to prepare for the WC.

Seems like I did a good choice not picking Cavendish for my fantasy team.

I guess many guys don't feel good in this type of weather, with high temperature and low humidity. Also he didn't wanted to suffer too much.
What's next for him? Why not go to ToB? |
