G and pineau crash
pineau crashes again... I think he is going to struggle in the Pyrenees to keep that polka dot"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way.

actually a team battle over 31 secs of GC for 1000+k could be pretty funny"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way.

well if you want to get into a break between here and Paris, either make sure there are no Radioshack or Caisse riders in the break or a equal number of each"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way.

I find it quiet tragic the Shack are taking the team competition so seriously.
Imagine if you were Bottle, your team clearly have no faith in you for the GC.Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.0 -

yeah from levi's POV its like "who cares about you"
but then again no one does really
he is going to lose time everyday in the Pyrenees in all likelihood anyway but OTOH he could pull back serious time on the 3rd step in the finall TT so the podium is not impossible (thou unlikely )
as for the team GC... well why not a epic absurd battle for 1500k over a hand ful of secs..
interesting to see if the guys in the bunch get p1ssed off with it if it effects the racing day in day out... but then again its a classement
why not take it seriously?
could make some interesting hard racing"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0 -

point... frankly thou levi has a better shot thou..but not much
I'm up for this caisse vs the shack p1ssing contest"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0 -
"I will try to win some more time, and who knows, maybe I can win another stage. I expect that Contador will attack, but I also expect that I can follow him. It will be like the finale at Morzine-Avoriaz, so there are opportunities to create some time gaps. It is a sharp rise that fits me well."

Nope. Nice try but it just doesn't work.
By comparing Levi to LLS as a GT rider you have put down the Shack even more than Iain's dig at Bottle.

charteau has Kiryienka with him...hope he brought a shack rider too "If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way.

Well, LLS is there on merit, just as much as Levi is, no?Le Blaireau (1)0

the way I see it all the shack has to do is ride tempo at the front for 1600K at 40kph so there are no breaks at all then steal back the time with levi in the ITT

I say this for caisse they are the ones needing to get into the breaks rather than the shack because of the ITT
hence they are making the running and the shack covers defensivily
can you really believe this is going on.... this stuff must be running throu the heads of the DS at the shack and Caisse...
i think its awesome and somewhat novel..."If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0 -

Clever old Thor is out to grab the intermediate sprint points again.
And Bole is runining my prediction for Lantern Rouge. Damn him!It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.0 -
