Damn you Soler. You're making so many cycling fans unhappy. I hope his injuries are not to serious though. |

Oh Soler. Cranial fracture. He should consider whether it's worth to keep riding if he can't improve his bike handling, seriously. |

Well let's face it. Soler is a terrific climber but quite frankly his technique
is none actually. He can't both descent from a climb and TT. |

A fun fact is that Soler and Fränk Schleck (both well-known top bike handlers) dropped Leipheimer in the Grosse Scheidegg descent. And by more than half a minute.  |

Is that a fancy word for skull fracture?

Depends on if it's skull base or the real skull. Is it alraedy certain he has fractured his skull?

Same thing with Frank Schleck to be honest. He often gets tangled in all sort of crashes because of his lack of riding technique. He can't both TT and descent and yet i'm a big fan of Schleck brothers. |

Well, i mostly wanted to see how he would do in the Tour, so whatever the fracture is, he won't start there.

It's the same but different ? I'm not a doctor, but that doesn't seem to make any sense... |

I hope Cunego attacks again to ensure his lead. Cunego attacks @5 km from the end (my prediction) |
