    Bad day for Barloworld. First Duenas tests positive, now Paolo Longho has broken his collarbone and is out of the race.

    The day a positive test explodes over the heads of the peloton, we have a huge break tanking along, ahead of the fastest predicted schedule.
    Yup, it's only the odd rider.......
    Lotto happy to let them disappear up the road. Job done.

    Should a huge break be going slowly then?

    Stupid question but we are talking about Sean Yates?

    Yeah, big Sean Yates. very little was said. Sean said at how strange it was that Valverde and Cunego were no longer the same riders...getting dropped by Jens on the climb. Sean then rolled his eyes and was just "ahh....it's all very....hmmmm" , quickly followed by a quiet Roche saying to Yates " just keep it quiet, keep quiet." It would have been very easy missed but it just caught my attention.

    To be honest i wasn't on Yates' side today at all. Lots of bitchin' about teams and riders that haven't cleaned up yet. Fair enough his squad seem to have cleaned up now, but he wasn't so vocal during his career when it seems everyone was aware what was going on.

    Although to be fair a big break that works well should be able to go pretty fast and it was a tailwind,.

    What was being implied? Jens is doped upto the eyeballs or Valv/Cunego have gone clean or both?
