    No sprint from Cav to give EBH the best chance to win overall? what a swell guy.

    He is still finished though. :-)

    Bean is right, GvA is very quietly on fire...

    The more time Cav puts into EBH the more he will beat him by overall :lol:

    A bit of wind.
    Katusha wield the big stick.
    GVA reformed sprinter.
    Cav in the gutter but hangs tough.
    EBH riding home on a kid's bike.

    Quintessential Qatar.

    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    I watched this yesterday, and it looked to me like Cav was just placed at the back of the line, tried to sprint but just got pushed back by the wind.

    They finished in the same order they passed the kite in (sans lead out men) which would suggest sprinting past someone would have been nigh on impossible

    I'm going to be accused of moodiness again but if he can't beat Kristoff in a drag race then he's a lot closer to finished...

    I agree. Whilst Kristoff is definitely one of the fastest he will never be the fastest man on two wheels.
