So then today is the Prolouge of the Ster Elektrotoer and Mark Cavendish is in the line up for T-Mobile with a number 1 on his back! Do you think he is going to dominate this super flat sprint fest or do you think that there will be somebody else? |

For you brits it's all about Mark, Bradley and David, isn't it? 
considering T-Mobile has Ciolek and Eisel there, I VERY MUCH doubt he'll be designated leader for all stages.
especially since DS Kim Andersen makes a point of saying in every interview that everybody that's in good form gets chances in this team.
that said, let's see what Brown can do now that he's coming back from his crash.
also some other useful sprinters out there.
oh, and sprint fest it is not.
2 of the 5 stages are time trials

First Sporting Nonsense with his Nonsense about Dekker. And now another Brit who thinks the Elektrotour is flat.
While in fact, 1 stage is a prologue, 1 stage is a hard hilly stage through Limburg, as sort of mini-amstel gold race, with finish on the Cauberg (12%...) Another stage is a hard race through the ardennes with another hilly finish (La Gilippe)..and theres only 1 sprinter stage
So.. please, please try not to say too much when you obviously have no clue whatoever what you're talking about, it's too embarrassing for words |

I suggest that everybody but Ruben stops writing on this forum , he is a living cycling lexicon. So please Ruben couldnt you just start a topic called " What I read on the internet today because nobody loves me so I have nothing else to do" or something, then the rest of us could just lean back , relax and enjoy your exellent writing.
But seriously Ruben what is wrong with you, did your daddy beat you when you were a kid?
Eat shit!

First stage won by Wouter Weylandt in front of Robert Förster and Stefan van Dijk.
Brittish hope Mark Cavendish was 4th.
I saw them pass today, I went to the ravataillering (place were they get food and new water bottles). They were 17km of my place so..
Maybe I'm going to one of the hills tomorrow and see them pass again. |
