basque autotranslate:
"The final part of the climb to La Antigua, with nearly 800 m close to 16% on average (and maximum gradients exceeding 20%) is a good trap."

"It’s hard to win all by yourself in those conditions,” Cancellara said. “It was full-gas all day. There was no rest. My team did what they could, but Garmin was the strongest team today. We don’t have to search for excuses. They played it smart today. Now they get that victory they were searching for for a long, long time. I gave the maximum today, I cannot say more than that.”

signing for a gt team?

it shouldnt even be close. to be fair, im not clear that he really values classics results over gt tts and the rest.

ahh, vaughters' accent and inflection there is not standard 'merkin. it sounds really affected to me, but what do i know.

(i've spoken with him before, and he did not sound like that.)

post-defeat butthurt happens here (Hunt3r), Monday, 11 April 2011 17:20 (thirteen years ago) link

I see what you mean, he doesn't sound very American there, but from your description I was expecting Inspector Clouseau.

The dual leopard 'o's are cracking me up there. Like an emoticon or something.

One year ago Wouter Weylandt won stage 3 of the Giro. This year, may he rest in peace.

Can't say anything more RIP Wouter

American Fear of Pranksterism (Ed), Monday, 9 May 2011 17:32 (thirteen years ago) link

terrible news.

Not sure how accurate but a journalist friend said WW was OTB and looking back to see who else was there with him to rally back in contact with the peloton, while looking back he clipped his pedal on a low stone guard wall and fell 60 feet over a switchback onto the road below, probably broken neck. His wife is pregnant with their first child. 26 years old. Awful news.

Not good at all - just saw it on Eurosport (which I'd recorded) and his neck might well have been broken (I fast forwarded away from it, tbh)
