Gesink lost 19 seconds on the other GC candidates due to the mess at the end
I'm also waiting for A_Schleck's excuse for super-sprinter breschel to have finished 11th even behind Davide motherf***ing Viganò.
11th is bad enough, but finishing behind Viganò, who is not only bad, but also buried himself for boonen and swinged off the front at about 1km from the line is just hilarious

Because motherf***ing Breschel was in the motherf***ing wheel of motherf***ing Nicholas Roche and motherf***ing Nicholas Roche opened a motherf***ing gap up to motherf***ing Koldo Fernandez when a motherf***ing Liquigas-rider swung away and because motherf***ing Davide Viga-motherf***ing-no only stopped sprinting after the last motherf***ing corner and finally because motherf***ing Breschel will never be a motherf***ing supersprinter 'cause he has never been a motherf***ing sprinter but he's a motherf***ing nice finisseur. Now treat your mother well!

did you by any chance notice that Chavanel stopped pedalling way before the finish and still Breschel couldn't come around?

Yes, I noticed that it seemed like all three of them didn't really to try to sprint any further as they saw that the win was three seconds ahead of them.
Never.

the point is that breschel was still wacking away at the pedals like a madman but just barely didn't come through. that's the comedy and the tragedy all at once.
But hell, he's a top sprinter no doubt
And either Haedo was caught in the crash, or he's just sad. So much sprinting speed and zero stamina

You seem to have been blessed - or cursed - with some different eyes than I. Or, you've been hallucinating. Either way, I think we'll disagree from now on and forever. After having a look at the sprint again, I still can't find the wacking but maybe your c is our n - still, that wouldn't make sense.
Never.

Please kill the UCI jury. How boring must they be to follow the rules precisely ("the fall was at 3.1km, so time loss counted) and decapitate a race this early
Hurray. These UCI bobos never learn |

Do you ever watch the tour?
It's fucking insane the corners they take sometimes.

quite the contrary, dangerous finishes are in every race, no matter what race it is.

Due to their crashes yesterday, Kloden and Schumacher are pretty banged up and are doing bad times.
Of course, most idiot DB makers will make no mention of this and will give them sucky stats as if these were normal performances.....as they always do.
(yes, it's clear I have a bone to pick with sucky DB makers)

All the best time triallists crashed yesterday, so I'm expecting a stage win by either Leipheimer or Contador. 60/40.
