Ulrich Kicked out of Tour - Page 5

I thought Husvold was disqualified yesterday? I saw a new flash I didn't want to see before I viewed the Tour and thought that was the oucome. Apparently, I was wrong.

I am looking at today's stage results since I won't be watching it tonight. Very interesting!

I'm very disoriented because they are going the "wrong way" around Europe. We will get the Pyranees first.

Luz Ardiden should zap some of the riders for sure. Still in it. I've been watching the coverage on OLN, this year is so much better, because they are trying to cover the breaks. Egoi Martinez just went down, but he is up and the medical car is taking care of him rolling along.

I think Hushovd just lost his sprint points for the stage due to some pushing or somesuch during the sprint finish. It's similar to what happened to McEwen last year. Basically it greatly reduces his chances at the green jersey.

Individual time trial today!

Surprising results today. This race is what separates the men from the boys. The "race of truth" has spoken.

We'll see. I think Hincapie can still do well, and we also have another time trial later in the race. It was disappointing to see the Discovery boys lose as much time as they did, but I'm still cheering for them.

Landis did very well considering his mechanical troubles.

NickO'Time · 07-09-2006, 12:17 AM

Hincapie for Top 10 for sure, Geez Leipheimer what happened?

I still think it will be Paolo Salvodelli top 3, or Kloden, there has to be a hidden rider on one of these teams. Landis barring any problems will for sure make Top 3.

ARGH! Couldn't watch today and won't be able to watch tomorrow either. I need to take a month off for th Tour.

NickO'Time · 07-10-2006, 07:13 AM

Rest day today. Even though for some of the teams will still ride, just not at the horrendous pace they do everyday in the Tour.

Not Afraid · 07-10-2006, 10:41 AM

So, I have the time to watch it again and they are resting. Not FAIR!

NickO'Time Missed it by that much.. Join Date: May 2005 Posts: 678	Spoiler: Ok after seeing today's results for the Time trial, I wouldnt be suprised if it was Andres Kloden wasn't in there for the overall or podium finish, I just cant believe that Gontchar can win the tour, he isn't that great a climber. I say Landis, Kloden, Hincapie. Liephiemer lost over 6 minutes. Surprising results today. This race is what separates the men from the boys. The "race of truth" has spoken.
