Re: Besseges 10h
still the only one, pff... Anyway, stage 1 was interesting as Alkworld did not ride for Almodovar all the time. Well, he didn't have to as others did. And in the end, he won and that's important. Before that, a lot happened. Early group with GC and mountain jersey contenders, did not work, FL riders attacked out of it first with Cespedes and later without, Fargas getting the red jersey until the end of tomorrow's stage. Additionally, he got 6 bonus seconds at the sprint, where Creel ,the best time trialist in the peloton, caught the last 2 of them. The rest was more or less controlling by the sprintteams, some unsuccessful attacks and as already mentioned, Almadovar's victory.
favorite check pretty fast
Alliteration classement:
***** Walter Walch
**** Carlos Cespedes, Heinz Heuser
*** Esteban Echeverria, Benni Büchel, Dollah Dahari, Francois Flamby

Re: Besseges 10h
Hm, if I write a PM to Buhmann for changing a rider's name, is that some kind of doping? I'm thinking about Pedro Pedrodovar.team fl wrote:still the only one, pff...

Anyway, it seems that the GC teams will have to work a bit for their GC win, more to follow tomorrow
Re: Besseges 10h
Isn't it enough that we agreed that Antino Narino can start in the rhyme contest?

Re: Besseges 10h
Lots of action in the alliteration classement today. First WaWa fell back and FraFla was making tempo to keep him away, later even Otto Flotter tried to leave his footprints on that fight, but he was brought back immediately. An uninteresting group then made it finally, and John Brathwaite won the stage and created a little advantage for the Brathwaites in the family classement.team fl wrote:still the only one, pff...

Re: Besseges 10h
Nice, Ollé Ollé won today's stage. After not knowing what how to ride it, Chartreuse offered the stage with his splittings. Quite fortunately, he did not ride for Tsigalko and teams like Ruhrgebiet and Furpach rode in front too. Thus it was not a big problem for the Team FL rider to prepare the sprint for Ollé Ollé, in which he won easily. While he's now wearing green, Banzer lost his white yersey after his 25th birthday at the beginning of February. In the back, Brath could save yellow for John. Cologne's classic sprinter is wearing the red jersey after the stage. So far, it's still pretty open, although it will be very hard to beat Creel in the final time tiral, today again gaining some bonus seconds.

Re: Besseges 10h
This tour looks so simple, but every day again, unexpected things happen and it's very hard to say how the whole thing will turn out. Ruhrgebiet's TT rider still seems to be the big favorite, but he'll have to fear attacks, splits and people catching bonus seconds until the last day.
