Wow, you other pple may just face it, Thor is the greatest!! Why? He is the world champ, and no oen else from your other contries had any chance at all. Just lokk at big failer Gilbert! And all the others. Spain and Italy with mega-awsome teams. But Thor with a bad team does it all! Thor is the best. And thats a fact! ;P |

Erm... no. He won a sprint against Breschel and Davis. He did well to get over the hills. Well done. Not the best rider in the world.
Also, how is Gilbert "a big failer"? |

Would be a proper podium tbh

gilbert just went a bit too early (lloking back)
the speed of the peloton when they overtook evans & kolobnev and co was just insane (before Brajkovic and the others went) |

Why? Hushovd managed to get back time after time.
Gilbert did what he had to do, but it wasn't enough.
Hushovd did what he had to do, and that was, luckily for him, enough. |

I guess there was just too much road left after the last climb. Sprinters finishes all round. |

That wasn't too early...he attacked on the hardest climb, attacks on the flat are less effective as more riders could followed him |

You from other countries might just say what you want about who that diserves to win, but the thing is that the one that wins is the one that diserves to win, as long as any accidents has not happened. And there wasnt any accidents. Gilbert failed, didnt you see? He wnet away, and so he was pulled back again = i dont think that was his meaning about going away. You can say that he dont diserve it because he didnt take any relays, but then Cavendish didnt diserve any of his wins. And Hushovd didnt have any who could help him on his team, so i he rode right after the book. |

@EDCOHM
Theres something called heart, basically its a big part of cycling. An example would be "he put his heart and soul into his ride today, great win". Then there's something called common sense, unfortunately it is blocked by Norwegian Hushovd syndrome for you. Its cure is simple. Watch cycling and realize Hushovd is not God. That he is not the best at any of the disciplines he excels in but is a very good opportunist. Usually for him these opportunities come when the field is a lot smaller than normal. (About 40-60 riders)
If you need help with this Syndrome of yours, you can PM me, at any time. Now I'm not the best doctor for this sort of treatment, but I don't charge a penny.

I can easily agree with this. Hushovd deserved the win just as much as Gilbert would have if he had won.
But there's a bit difference between saying that and saying that "no one else from any other country had any chance at all" |

Pozzato never had a chance. |
