Off course. 1 bad time trials means he sucks at tt-ing. At least check his other tt results this year. You can have bad days.
It seems to me you're trying to provoke ruben.
Have you ever seen rider good at TT even when hasn't got a good day losing that much time? because i've never witnessed this happening to Contador, Leipheimer, Fuglsang or Wiggins these are riders i consider as good at time trialing.
And i'm not trying to provoke anyone because quite frankly i'm saying the fact's Mollema IS NOT good at time trialing he's a good climber that's IT! |

Kruijswijk 20th in the 2nd intermediate time, 1'20 to Kloden.
Meanwhile, Fulgsang finishes 6th, 44" to Cancellara.

Leipheimer 3rd best time at the finish, 14" slower than Cancellara.

Look at the time Contador lost to Menchov.  |

Cunego needs to finish in less than 43'13 to keep his jersey!

I'm not saying he great at TT-ing. But he doesn't suck at it, like you're implying. |

He just put Fuglsang in the same category with Contador, Levi and Wiggins. Just ignore him and he will go away

Obviously it is a courtesy of wind direction at this stage yes Menchov had the similar conditions and it is a 52 km time trial. And Contador was suffering heavily that day had a
39 C fever.. |

I just said that he is not good at time trialing that's it. He's just average
I won't say anything more about whether Mollema can TT because you Rabobank fans can't look objectively at things

I'd say he's (slightly) better than average. A rider who's average at TT-ing can't finish top 15 in the Paris-Nice time trial, if you ask me. |
