    Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.

    3kms. Martin still got a good gap. Racing on pure feel. Unleashing the race face.

    Quintana has 1'2 seconds to make up & as B Smith just said the 2km's to 1km's averages 9% then levels off to about 4-5% for the last 1kms

    Exciting isn't it? Always is when the Sky diesel train runs out of fuel. They always lose their heads when riders race like racers and things dont follow The Plan. And you wonder why I complain.

    hmm... I think Jrod would be in the leaders jersey had katusha not been determined to let the sky train burn out.

    In that case surely you shouldn't be complaining about the Sky train. Shouldn't you should be complaining that other riders aren't racing like racers to disrupt the Sky train?

    Cos he'd be doing something different if he was a Sky DS I suppose :roll:
    We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence
