You know when you get tired, your blood glycemia decreases, your brain gets less glucose, so it doesn't work as well. You become picky, and less vigilant, that's when you do beginners mistake, you increase the risks of falling and injuring yourself.
Might be his fault, but I'm not sure he's to blame. Those things happen. Bad luck. |

His bad actor performance ? Yes, he was too tired to focus on his acting. |

Apparently every one's not happy with Vino :
I'm almost sure my French spelling was better when I was 10 than Pineau's nowadays.
("Cycling didn't win a thing in Olympism today !", but more literally, he wrote "Cycling as not win a thing n Olympism to day !!!" )
Anyway, I had not read about it, but apparently, both former pro Philippe Gaumont and Andrei Kivilev's widow have accused Vino of paying Cofidis to ride for him during Paris-Nice 2003.

This explains why Vino is still riding at 38yo and keeps prolonging.
He's in deep money problems with all the races he has bought |

Also, since probably nobody will talk about it, I will as annoying as it is:
Nice ride by Gesink as well, buried himself for Boom. And was together with Suisse, Spain and Nibali the reason the break stayed ahead. |

Yup, that's because Boom tactically failed. He should have attacked but counted on his sprint for some mysterious reason |

Poeple at Facebook are hilarious:
Jan Ullrich gratulated on Facebook his "friend" Vinokourov on that win.
But the comments are somekind of slapstick.. Like there are 50% of people that are against dopers and liars and 50% of people who think it's good to dope and being a liar and complaining about people who are against doping but taking medicine when they are ill.
Someone posted there for example: "Those people who are against doping but are taking *that blue stuff* before *I think you know what here should stand*, you idiots!"
Day 1 at the olympics (taking out the football tournament) and the olympic oath is already taken reductio ad absurdum with a winner like Vino, isn't it. No matter how clever the finish was.

Just got internet
Spent the whole day on the hill (haha i got in SN)
Fantastic atmosphere and racing
Currently camped on a mates sofa, so i can get to the Mall early to watch the Womens race tomorrow start and finish.
Well done Vino, tops his comeback-comeback. I dont believe he'll retire after the TT, he'll ride again i bet.
Team GB were truly unbeleivable, to get to within 40" odd at the finish was great, and to control almost the whole race, just wow.
Yet another reason the hate the Germans
Cant believe Spartacus crashed, wasted my TT bet
Thatll do for now
I may upload my videos and photos at some point, except the one were im getting told off by the police

Cancellara is in hospital rumoured to have a broken collarbone. This would suck a lot. He could have won two gold medals here and might end with nothing.

Why not a suprise? Like LL Sanchez or Chris Froome!
Also, Grabsch looked really strong today.
And off course there is the championship time trialist Gustav Larsson |

No broken collarbone for Cancellara. But it`s thick and might hurt a bit. But still I think he will get a medal here.
In other news cyclists should stop to fetch pieces out of your wheel while riding.
C.A.Sörensen during the Tour, Breschel today...
