@Thanks All, your comments are really appreciated Smile I am not going to reply to all of them as usually not to mess up the report with lots of smileys.

@dienblad - Absolutely right, I think we can make a podium with enough luck.

@Olinho - Thanks Smile Sorry to inform you, I wanted to go to San Luis but couldn't due to the 60 days limits. Will make it up for it though hopefully Wink

Thanks everyone again Smile

Lobethal – Stirling


i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/stage2.jpg


Second stage is also the 2nd toughest stage at the TdU. With 4 laps around a tough hill, this will make sure pure sprinters will find it hard to win here. It will be a job for puncheurs like Freire, Goss or Greg Van Avermaet to make the stage tough and go for victory.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0029.jpg


With the first King of Mountain Jersey points available 46km in the stage, we decide to control the peleton until then. The plan is to attack with Pauwels with around 2km to go. It’s also a chance for our fans to see us first time at the front of peleton.


i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0062.jpg


Pauwels takes it with a celebration. That’s our first step in taking that jersey. Job done for today.


i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0065.jpg

Pauwels took his chance and tried lonely breakaway. It was never going to work though with Garmin and GreenEdge working together, but it’s another good commercial of our team on the TV screens.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0070-1.jpg

With 20km to go Pauwels was finally caught and in – form Theo Bos gives it a go. It’s a bit early to go on attack, especially from Bos.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0071.jpg

Bos is caught with 5km to go and trains are set up. Lampre looking great once again, with 4 man up front. Ciolek is taking a chance and finds Cavendish’s wheel again. We don’t have high hopes, as his energy bar is going down rapidly, already.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0073.jpg

200 metres to go and Lampre managed to mess it up. Hondo was blocked and Farrar took the opportunity to accelerate with already massive gap. Ciolek is trying to follow Gasparatto’s wheel, but it doesn’t look like his day.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0076.jpg



Unbelievable, out of nowhere Greg Van Avermaet with massive acceleration manages to sneak the victory from Farrar’s gasp. What a sprint by Belgian, asserting himself as a big favourite on Willunga. One spectacular blow is Petacchi, after amazing lead out, he doesn’t even get Top 10. Ciolek finished on 12th today.

Team’s Reaction


roadcyclinguk.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/car.jpg


We knew it was going to be tough today. This stage came to early for Ciolek to do something here. We are happy though as Ciolek’s form is on increase and we should start showing up more tomorrow and next stages. Van Avermaet looks like a big favourite now, along Freire. If we want to have a good GC, Ciolek’s had to grab a podium place in next two stages. Let’s see.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0077.jpg


Ciolek finishing 12th and totally spent. Let's hope we can improve on that !


Stage 3 Coming Up tomorrow. I played it just now, and all I can say is we did better. Stay Tuned ! Report early tomorrow or in afternoon Wink

Nice to see that Pauwels has the Mountains jerseyWink
 
PCM rulezz
Very nice reports, definitely a great story. Results will come

Pauwels' KoM success makes this still a good stage for you I think. Farrar had a pretty bad last 200ms there Grin

One thing: You did the first two and the last screen centered but the rest not, and since you did it two times in a row now, I have to ask: Is it meant to be like that? And has it any sense (am I just being ignorant here? Pfft).

Anyway, I like your reporting style, I like the flags and the team's reaction is also very nice. I'm excited about the next, better stage!

And you're slowly getting into the swing of things.

Edit: LOL Pauwels celly Pfft

I actually love your screens, really great. Can't wait for Wilunga, it's a really good stage in PCM.

@fcancellara - Thank you. It's rally hard to take good screens in Tour Down Under with not the best scenery, so I am happy I am doing ok so far with screens Smile

@sutty68 - Defo, always nice to have someone from your team in any special jersey.

@PCM rulezz - Thanks so much. Very much appreciated Smile

@cunego59 - Thanks, and yeah he had. Similar thing to Petacchi on Stage 1 when he went too early in the wind Pfft

It was meant to be like that actually Pfft sometimes when there's too much text under a photo, and when centred it doesn't look good sometimes so I just center the pictures with not much text and the last one. Will think about how to change that though Wink

Thank you very much Smile

@valverde321 - You know the answer now Pfft Yeah indeed, hope that I will keep up the tempo Pfft Pauwels Pfft

@Teddy The Creator - Thank you, as I said it's not best scenery here so I am glad I am doing good job with the screens Smile Willunga should be hell of a stage Pfft

10theri - Thank you once again theri, very much appreciated Smile

Stage 3 is another flat stage for sprinters. 45km into the stage we have the only categorized hill with King of Mountain points available. Pauwels will not go for them this time, resting it out today. The last hill shouldn’t cause many problems, but might play small advantage to sprinters like Goss, Freire or Ciolek.

Favourites :

*** Petacchi, Cavendish, Farrar
** Goss, Freire, Bos, Greipel
* Ciolek, Haedo, Van Avermaet


Team Objective


It helps we have just one rider we are focusing on this race. Ciolek after his 8th and 12th will hope to improve and get into the Top 5. It will be tough with this competition, but if he follows the right wheel we can do it.

What a victory of van Avermaet, in the picture with 200 metres to go he isn't on the picture and than he wins! I hope you can manage a stage or podium place with Ciolek, WillungaHill might be an oppurtunity?

@jona777 - Indeed. He came out completely nowhere to win it with ease, it was truly amazing sprint by him. Check today's result and you should be happy Wink Willunga is definitely a goal, but I think Ciolek is not strong enough to get Top 5 on willunga.

Right from the start there were many riders trying to get into breakaway of the day. This lot looks most likely so far. None are close to GC and none should really contend for it.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0003-1.jpg


While the peleton relaxes riding through barren desert, Omega Pharma rides at the front with Pauwels showing off his King Of Mountains Jersey. As seen previously Lampre is already working at the front. Three times lucky for Petacchi ?

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0021.jpg


With 44km to go the break comes to the last sprint points. Lloyd Mondory wins the sprint from Roberto Ferrari and Marcel Sieberg. The break has 3 minutes advantage at the time.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0024.jpg


But they didn’t stand the chance with peleton acceleration. 2.8km to go and Garmin looking in a perfect position for the win. Ciolek tries something different and manages to clinch Goss wheel, who was following Petacchi.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0026.jpg


Chaos ! Hunter forgets about Farrar and sprints for his own success. Hondo gives amazing lead out to lead Petacchi, but Goss is waiting and accelerates from his back. Ciolek is following.

i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m537/Alakagom/PCM0030.jpg


Goss wins the stage, but more importantly for us. Ciolek gets 2nd place in today’s finale, beating many big names. His form is on increase and the bonus seconds will be big help for us.

Finally success for Ciolek. We couldn't be much happier. It's definitely sign of Ciolek's form improving, and a bit of luck too following the right wheel today. We going to collect our thoughts and preprare for tomorrow where podium will be once again our target and the bonus seconds, before Willunga. So far so good Smile

@Teddy The Creator Haha, your screens are great too though Wink And thanks Smile

@tsmoha Great wasn't it ? Pfft Thank you Wink

@sutty68 It's 3rd stage btw, but yo're right. To be honest I am hoping for a victory on a last stage where we will have best form, but let's see what happens on stage 4 Wink

Stage 4 is a typical Tour Down Under stage. With a categorized sprint point and king of mountains point in the fitst 50km of the stage, we should expect a lot of breaks. Manglers Hill is the only real obstacle for the riders today. Coming at 110km, 20km before the finish it might play a small role, but shouldn’t be cause sprinters many problems.

Favourites :

*** Petacchi, Cavendish, Farrar
** Goss, Freire, Bos, Greipel
* Ciolek, Haedo, Van Avermaet


Team Objective


The plan is to try to control the race until the KoM point and then attack with Pauwels. If everything works out today Pauwels will be a strong leader in that competition. If Pauwels succeeds he will go into the break of the day and try to collect more points on Menglers Hill, if possible.

Top 5 in Sprint

Win first KoM point
