- Be warned. I'm a 20 something engineer with a dangerous capacity to scrutinize a blend of topics fairly analytically, albeit with some humor.

nope. no gas for menchov on the alps. are you following?
ReplyDeleteyes yes yes yes!! good for cadel. but look at csc..sick!
ReplyDeletei wonder if this will be a 1,2,3 for csc?
ReplyDeletehot on the chase! sastre def!
ReplyDeletei think sastre may just slow down at the summit and wait for frank so he doesn't have to give up his yellow jersey haha
ReplyDeletewait menchov is coming back
ReplyDeleteya but i doubt he can put time on cadel
ReplyDeletedamn i wish i had a tv :(
ReplyDelete1.50 gap...too much
ReplyDeletesastre has helium in the tires for sure! 2 min gap!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThats really good for sastre. I'm not sure if he can time trial. He needs all the advantage he can get.
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting tour. I'm confused as to who CSC's real leader is.. but knowing that sastre is possibly a much better tt'ist than frank, I'd think it was Sastre all the way along.
ReplyDeleteBut if you remember in last year's albi-albi time trial, cadel had almost 3 minute lead over sastre. there's no doubt cadel's stronger at the ITT but if Sastre takes some undetectable form of EPO, he could win too. Just saying...
Sad, but watching Sastre climbing L'Alpe D'Huez last night ... it crossed my mind, too ... :-(
ReplyDeleteI see that Cadel want's to see when his heart is going to explode.
ReplyDelete-B
Sastre, just a pure, pure climber...
