Two races on the oe night, oh what to watch

Fabian Cancellara, it's obvious
Maybe Tony Martin or Lars Boom
Boom is all about peaking
and I don’t think the Swiss peaks do it for him. He had his eye on Belgium and that worked out, he says next season goal is NatChamps. After that, the Vuelta opener. That said, this prologue could well be a test on the way to both of those goals.
Well I already said good morning to the Dauphine crowd
so I must also say GOOD MORNING SWITZERLAND! But actually, it’s all the same people ;-)
Adrenalina Italiana!
hehe Goodmorning again to you :-))

Distressing news
Klodie has been arrested by swiss police.
They thought he was trying to smuggle out large quantities of hidden Nazi goldtreasure but it turned out to just be his normal necklace so they released him with apologies.
Who y'all got for this race?
TRS is fielding Boom, Cavendish, Ciolek, Costa, Dekker, Gerdemann, Haussler, Meyer, Schleck the Younger, Van Avermaet, Vansummeren, and Weylandt.

69 total points going for Big Aloha. Team morale is high, at least until the blood value stuff comes down on Monday.
I feel a lot better about missing out on Antonio Colom. People that had him, well, I just hope you all feel very dirty now.

Bunch of underachievers.
Yeah, that Haussler needs to up his game.
I mean, what has he done for us lately?

Well, the boy is Dutch. They have a reputation for being cheap.
Er. Totally undeserved stereotype, I’m sure…if any of our Dutch friends are with us.

Heard a radiointerview with a spanish campingsite-manager once
He hated the dutch with a fervor because they insisted on bringing everything with them from Holland. They could go an entire holiday without spending a peseta.
On Twitter the other day:
is packing for the Tour of Swiss. Excited and nervous, but happy to be feeling good enough to race again.

is the sporza feed on myp2p
geo restriced? im getting buffering…
I'm thinking it's restricted--did that before when it was.
Myp2p seems to think the Basques will switch over one they’re done with the Dauphine.
