    Greipel is crap compared to Cav!

    Farrar will win because I picked him yesterday (this is how PTP seems to work)

    Oops :lol:

    It's amazing how often it happens. I need to pick a rider and stick with him until he wins.

    Well they did too much work at the wrong time. They tried to drive the group after the split but the second group, including Farrar, came back.

    Bennati needed some help in the closing miles, not 50km from the finish. Cancellara jumped with 1km to go and disorganised things, then Duque took a long flyer, so it was all a bit chaotic. Garmin can charge the celebration champagne to Liquigas.

    Chaotic bunch sprint again. Cancellara gets man-to-man marking off Bennati, Freire and Griepel, so Farrar sneaks it, at 59kph......

    Wow the speeds keep dropping - was it slightly uphill? Tour sprints are at least 65km/h and I know Bennati's max is 73km/h.

    I'd be very surprised if a sprinter wins the Worlds.
