[kedab]

[smutchin]

Go Ryder, go!

 

[raindog]

Hesjedal!! WTF?

 

[smutchin]

Charge of the Satnav Brigade fizzles out...

 

[kedab]

i think ryder was a little disappointed that nobody wanted to play. it's been a good stage though. fair play to traborre for giving it the complete beans and trying to win it from 50k out -

 

[smutchin]

Let me rephrase: the presenters all seem really surprised that Sky don't want to change their plans to suit Puccio now that he is in pink

Well, yes, it's easy to see why those who don't follow cycling too closely might imagine that on day two of a three week race, you would throw all your strategy out of the window and make a young, inexperienced rider your new team leader.



Anyway, he's been dropped now so I look forward to the bbc's pearls of wisdom in their analysis of this stage.

 

[smutchin]

Wonder if Wiggo fancies repeating his Trentino stage 1 heroics...

Nibali probably rates his chances here too, I suspect.

Game on!

 

[tigger]

Hesjedal is off again!

 

[Noodley]

Loving Hesjedal's attacking spirit!!

 

[smutchin]

Ryder's on the storm.

 

[kedab]

he's definitely sending a message to the other GC contenders. love it. bradders still well placed but so is big bobby gesink. i do like him.
