Cav great ride Lotto will be hurting did nothing wrong just beaten by a better rider Posted by: ram« on: July 03, 2012, 03:22 »Twattery from Sagan. FFS he didn't even hold the jersey yesterday.
Posted by: AG« on: July 03, 2012, 02:02 »good sprint by Cav.
deserved the win. Just something else I noticed, that I hated .... Sagan wearing a green helmet. Not the normal Liquigas green, but green to go with the green jersey. BUT HE ISNT THE GREEN JERSEY HOLDER!!! Fair enough you go all out if you hold the jersey. Its great to celebrate. But if you are not actually leading that competition, you dont green it up  Posted by: bicing« on: July 02, 2012, 18:22 »Gains and losses on the jersey holders updated for stage 2 here
Posted by: ram« on: July 02, 2012, 17:02 »Oh yes, have a good one Dinzy, decent start.
Posted by: The Poster Formerly Known As Moondance« on: July 02, 2012, 16:53 »Great stuff from Cav. Completely deserved that. Didn't beat Greipes by a lot though. Should make for some good sprinting.
Posted by: Tuart« on: July 02, 2012, 16:51 »Weak, light and rubbish Cav still has the sprint in him. Next he's winning the GC. Good ride. Time to put a royal ransom on him to win the Gold... Posted by: jimmythecuckoo« on: July 02, 2012, 16:39 »Super CAV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by: NDC« on: July 02, 2012, 13:24 »1 - Greipel
2 - Sagan 3 - Kittel Cavendish 6th Posted by: BYOP« on: July 02, 2012, 10:53 »Kittel to win the stage.
Posted by: Jamsque« on: July 02, 2012, 10:28 »Fatted Cav struggled to win the opening Tour sprint most years, I think Half-Cav will struggle even more. Greipel to win ahead of Farrar and Sagan.
Posted by: L'arriviste« on: July 02, 2012, 09:33 »Tournai's Notre Dame cathedral is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, an extraordinary, large and pretty rare example of Romanesque architecture this far north of Ravenna. It's not in the best shape these days but it's well worth a visit. I went there on a bitterly cold day on my way back from Lille a couple of years ago and was most annoyed to have forgotten my camera.
 Like all great Romanesque edifices, the simplicity of the decoration is surprising given the hatful of Gothic flamboyance for which Belgium is perhaps better known.  It has nonetheless endured the imposition of a rather daft looking Gothic choir at one end, while the West front retains its splendid original form. Work began on Notre Dame in 1147. To put that in perspective, in the same year the Second of the Nine Crusades got started, the little town of Moscow was mentioned for the first time in written history and the temple complex of Angkor Wat in Cambodia was almost complete.  Posted by: Auscyclefan« on: July 02, 2012, 08:20 »Will be a fast finish today as the final few km's are not technical therefore a team with a good train will be able to line the peloton out and therefore make it easier for their sprinter to win. This will make it harder for Cav but he may still be able to do it. A good chance for Goss to take the victory with his team built around him.
Posted by: DinZ« on: July 02, 2012, 07:58 »I think Greips will just take it from Cav and Goss 3rd
Posted by: The Poster Formerly Known As Moondance« on: July 02, 2012, 07:49 »Will be interesting to see how His Cav-ness handles this. Sky's team are more geared to helping Wiggins up mountains than piloting Cav in the final 10kms. Of course, Cav is just as capable of sitting on the back op the, say, GreenEdge train as he would be on the final seat in a Sky train and winning. But it'll be an extra wrinkle for sure.
Anywho: 1. Cav 2. Greipel 3. Goss 4. Kittel 5. Sagan Posted by: DinZ« on: July 02, 2012, 07:44 »Interesting comment on twitter showing Cav doing his homework. apparently after finishing yesterday he stopped over the line to watch replays of Sagan's sprint
Posted by: AG« on: July 02, 2012, 05:59 »According to CN twitter Lulu Sanchez is ok and will start stage 2
Posted by: ram« on: July 02, 2012, 02:46 »Don't think Sagan will sprint so well against a proper field on a flat course. My opinion anyway
