  • That's a shame, would have loved to see Voigt win, but good ride from Boom, just a shame we didn't see him at all

    Is this a disaster for Conrtador? Disgraceful performance, coming 4th in a TT.

    Nice ride from Jens.

    3 secs quicker and my betfair account would be looking a lot nicer.
    Still happy with the 5 PTP points.

    I've changed my tune. I'll spend the whole year fawning over him instead. Any tips?

    Awful start to his season. Crashed into a parked car in Algarve and out of that race.
    Now this.

    Contador is clearly over the hill, while Voigt being the same age as Grey Tex, will bring hope to thousands of middle age crisis sufferers.

    Yeah, he's dyed it grey to match the kit.

    Pretty stylish.
