    So this is what happens. Cancellara stops riding. THOR doesn't win, why, because he can't close the gap by himself. Great stuff for him :roll:

    Was that the behaviour of a true champion FF?

    Yeah THOR, supposed WORLD CHAMP can only win when he shows his nose in the last 50m, lightweight.

    This is what makes the sport interesting. If you want a pure test of strength, watch the kilo.

    Dear leading group,

    I had an amazing experience with the 23 year old girl from across the road the other day and I just had to let your readers know about it, erm, I mean, FREAKING PEDAL!

    Fabian is only guy who doesn't have a team mate on the breakaway, so he has to do the work what does he expect. lazy so and so

    Amazing that Hushovd and Ballan should refuse to do any work to get across and then, when Cancellera rightly refused to give them an armchair ride all the way across the gap, prefer just to watch the race ride away from them!

    Van Summeren a danger man for me. Wasn't he top 5 a few years ago?

    What a joke, dude you have never won this race, you are getting older, your chances are going. Fabian has won twice. He is 3 years younger than you.

    This.

    But, the longer he leaves it the less likely he is to succeed. 25KM to go - he needs to get a shift on if he's going.

    Gap, 1.10. Distance to the finish, 24k. All a bit too late methinks.

    Yup - I saw him winning a stage of the Rás last year. I think hes one of ProCyclings "Fab Four" riders for 2011
