Vamos Mosquera!!

Story so far:
Gilbert is trying to win the points jersey, he won the intermediate sprint and dropped back to the peloton.
Chérel and Tschopp have nearly 15 minutes on the peloton. Tschopp won a big mountain stage in the Giro, Chérel has no professional victories.

    “The decision has cost me two weeks of hard racing preparing for the worlds in Geelong,” O’Grady told The Australian newspaper. “But I guess it means that I can bring the family home a little earlier than expected.”

    “It also means I've ridden my last race for Saxo Bank. This is not the way I would have wanted my career racing for Bjarne Riis to end. I've ridden my guts out on the front for the team for the last six seasons.”

    Big effort of the whole team - could be a sneeky tactic of showing Menchov Rabobank is still expecting something of him.

    I think we are in for another eyeballing contest.

    Possibly. Might backfire if he flops, though.

    Reminds me of Sky's tactics in the Alps earlier this year!

    EDIT: CN are saying that maybe Rabo are working for juan Manael Garate which is possible...
