Nobody cares about Fränk because he is no danger.
Haha, good one Ruben.. Your ego is probably too big to accept that Frank Schleck attacked and more importantly that he is a threat in GC to every guy including Contador and Evans.
Maybe, if he somehow gains 3 minutes before the TT.

I think that the Tour should determine who is the best complete rider, that means one who can ride on cobbles, who can downhill, who can timetrail and climb.
Unfortunately for Andy and Frank, Sanchez, Contador and Evans can do all those things!
Wait, what?
Not sure about Sanchez and Contador, but Evans was 3rd on the cobbled stage last year behind Hushovd and Thomas and ahead of Cancellara.

On the downhilling I have mixed feelings.
On the one hand, I think Andy and Frank just sound like spoilt kids.
On the other, I remember back to how Contador felt about having to cope with Nibali going down the Crostis. And then I think of the beef, and the wonders that the rest day has done to him...
And then I think, anything can happen the next couple of days, so bring it on and be thankful there were no bad crashes the last few days. One really big day in the moutains might still decide this race.
I am not saying that he is 100% clear, but we all know he had pretty bad crashes in first week and hurted his knee, which prevented him from his normal style of riding the bike (of course this can be an excuse, but i somewhat believe him this time) and it is normal that his knee is better with a little rest Edit: I read you post one more time and realised you was probably talking about Giro rest day. If so, sorry then

Samuel rode that Dauphine at pure training and also rode like shit in the mountain stages.
A good Samuel WON the final Vuelta ITT against guys like Menchov and Evans.
Do not underestimate Samuel Sanchez in the ITT or you will be seriously suprised on saturday.
Good of you to demonstrate that you haven't read the discussion at all.
Now go back to your little village and let the rational people continue their discussion

You should see the video feed they had from the Norwegian commentator box when EBH won yesterday. Basically the main commentator was dancing around and kissing the others. He also suggested to take the genes from Edvald's parents and sell them for lots of money

That's just brilliant. I love it when the neighbouring booth comes in and holds a headset near the shouting commentator. :-)
