Tour de Suisse... Cancellara Coronation... LIVE!

Today is the day Fabian Cancellara is elected king of Switzerland. By, what, 5pm local time(?) Tony Spartacus will have completed his 38.5km circuits around Bern at a rate that will leave not only his rivals but an entire country gasping. The response will be swift and severe, with the current Swiss government swept out of office by Monday morning to make room for Cancellara and a phalanx of domestiques to serve in his cabinet. All that remains unknown at this time is whether Cancellara will use his new offices for good, or will run amok on power, glutting himself at the Swiss National Chocolate Reserves deep underneath Lake Geneva... thus rendering his form unsuited to further stage racing and undermining his authority at home.
Aw, hell, I'll pick Tony Martin for the overall win. Hey, whatever happens, it'll be a fun day. It's also Father's Day, speaking of running amok on power. I plan to wake up in time for the final riders, whom I will watch as my kids feed me challah French toast smothered in syrup. And not that manufactured crap -- real maple syrup from New Hampshire (which is every bit as good as the pricier Vermont stuff). Yep, this is gonna be fun.

Remember in 2004
When the Tour de Suisse was decided during the final TT by one second? Ulrich beating a Swiss – Jeker.
Let’s hope for some unexpected drama today.
PS – podium?
sometimes life is a false flat
Keep hope alive!
Seriously though, one undercooked mussel on his pasta last night and it’s game on!
Abruzziamo!

If Tony Martin were to beat Cancellara by 35 seconds then I would become a devout Columbia fan
That being said, my top 5 is going to be
1. Cance
2. T-Mart
3. Kreuz
4. Klodi
5. The Golden Mullet (‘Cause I’ve got a Golden Mullet…I’ve got a Golden twinkle in my eye…)
What's this?! I thought I'd be on the podium,
but all you continental types got here first! Boo.
Adrenalina Italiana!
Don't think I can stick around
… for Tony’s high-speed victory lap this evening :-(.
Sooo… I’ll say it now – WOOHOO! STAND UP FOR TONY!
I was built to be the best, number one and nothing less. Leave me to my destiny…
July is sorted.
By means of my DVD recorder, and strategic use of annual leave (my roster for July is a dog’s dinner… didn’t have enough leave accrued to just take the three weeks off, so I sat down with the parcours and narrowed it down the the most important bits…)
we were asked to take 3 weeks unpaid leave if you recall
but don’t think I can take them in July.
Year-end time, it’s gonna be simply crazy.
Unpaid leave
The bastards should thank you for taking it whenever you &^%#$ chose. Grrrrr.
Heh, in my workplace the response would have been immediate ‘unpaid leave’, taken by the vast majority of the workforce (… for a walk down to Trades Hall).
utility
that’s different.
we (as all CA firms) are in a bad market, KPMG fired about 300 around Xmas time as I remember.
True...
although not so crash hot for those of us who drive a desk, with the sell-off hanging over our heads.
I’m giving serious thought to shifting into the field next year. There’s a scheme where we can move into an apprenticeship without loss of wages. And in many ways, the thought of being a sparky or linesman (‘linesperson’, if you like) really does appeal. Plus my job would be just that little bit safer ;-)
I'm still hoping to go to Paris next year
take my 3 weeks leave then.
Can’t do reduced hours as I’m actually quite busy, which is a good thing!
at least they are saying with the unpaid leave/reduced hours going on, no more redundancy!
Oh, it's definitely second choice
… and I have managed to get 11 days off out of the 14, so I’ll be watching most of it live!
Goooood morning!

Good morning all & happy Fathers day to any Dads :)
Mine’s a happy one, I got him some chocolate and series 2 of The Wire!
Although he deserves it, he’s driving me to Heathrow airport this afternoon so no live coverage for me, but I’m taking my laptop in the hope they have wi-fi so i can at least check the results.
Final podium I’m thinking Spartacus, Kreuzy-ears, T-Dog (Martin). Can’t see anyone pipping Fab for the stage win since it is his hometown. Plus of course we must follow the pattern of only Saxo or Columbia winning anything this race (yes Gasparotto should win the blue sprint jersey but really does anyone care?!).

Ah apologies for the language mix-up
I did do German for a bit at school but things went downhill when we got a teacher that couldn’t speak English, so we learnt nothing :/
I’m visiting a friend so she’s got lots of things planned to do and visit, but mostly just hanging out and seeing stuff. I like photography so hopefully snap some stuff while there. Helping her out a local bike race too which should be fun :)

Haha, what are you implying? That i somehow favour him?
Don’t know how you draw that conclusion ;)
But sadly no, my laptop will be going back home with my Dad and all of the pics are on there. Sadly that means no sexybankers either cycle girl :( But fear not everyone deserves a holiday, this will be mine and i’ll be fully devoted to the world of blogging and pics again a week on Tuesday
I’ll also be missing the Spanish nat champs which are on Friday/Sat so someone better do me justice should any of my favourite Spaniards win ;)

Maple Syrup - handmade is best
Nothing like Maple syrup where you personally drilled the trees, slogged through the mush in March with 5 gallon buckets of sap, threw wood on the fire in the boiling hut and filtered the syrup yourself :-) It really does taste better that way! Dipping a cup in the boiling sap and throwing a teabag in is awesome also!
Of course filtering out the moths and other crap that gets in the sap gives you a different perspective too! Although boiling it down 40-1 or so does kind of make it ok.
You have to boil it a long time.
Because all the neighborhood boys are peeing in the sap buckets.
But if you can get to the buckets before your brothers do, there is absolutely no drink in the world more refreshing than ice-cold maple sap.

From Angela's ashes yesterday.. Beutifull essay..
The boy, 11 years old, lives in Ireland and is very poor. Lost a brother and sister and has to wrote an essay for school..
‘Jesus and the weather’
This is my composition. I don’t think Jesus Who is Our Lord would have liked the weather in Limerick because it’s always raining and the Shannon keeps the whole city damp. My father says the Shannon is a killer river because it killed my two brothers.When you look at pictures of Jesus He’s always wandering around ancient Israel in a sheet. It never rains there and you never hear of anyone coughing or getting consumption or anything like that and no one has a job there because all they do is stand around and eat manna and shake their fists and go to crucifixions. Anytime Jesus got hungry all He had to do was walk up the road to a fig tree or an orange tree and have His fill. If He wanted a pint He could wave His hand over a big glass and there was the pint. Or He could visit Mary Magdalene and her sister, Martha, and they’d give Him His dinner no questions asked and He’d get his feet washed and dried with Mary Magdalene’s hair while Martha washed the dishes, which I don’t think is fair.Why should she have to wash the dishes while her sister sits out there chatting away with Our Lord? It’s a good thing Jesus decided to be born Jewish in that warm place because if he was born in Limerick he’d catch the consumption and be dead in a month and there wouldn’t be any Catholic Church and there wouldn’t be any Communion or Confirmation and we wouldn’t have to learn the catechism and write compositions about Him.The End

like meridian
which is a line dividing a globe in to two equal halves (along a longitude line) the meridiem divides the day (diem) into two equal halves. Indeed “middle” of the day, relative to the sunlight… until we came up with the silly modern ideas [wink] of time zones and daylight saving, rather than each town using local time, based on the sun being at the highest point at noon.
That's the problem..

Not very, yes, I mean no? Er, I don't what I mean
But it goes up and down between 450 and 500 m, not a climbing time trial by any means. First climb looks like it could be around 3%, 2nd one around 5%? (repeat for 2nd lap).
tickers appear useless today

Meanwhile in the Ster Elektrotour
The leader Niki Terpstra has exactly the same time as the runner up Gilbert. Terpstra was appointed leader because of his sligthly better time in the opening prologue. It is a flat race today so the intermediate sprints will become very interesting.
RIght now 2 men are in an escape group but Silence-Lotto is chasing hard to catch them before the first intermediate sprint.

Milram with Terpstra are right behind them. I’m afraid Gilbert is a far better sprinter so I’d like to see more breakaways!

Other bonus seconds
To be had at the second intermediate sprint (150 km) and the finish (179). I sure hope Terpstra can do something.
I also wonder if the initiative now shifts to Milram. They’ll have to reign in the breakaways now if they want to give it another go with Terpstra.
"Where there’s a will, there’s a way.": Alberto Contador, shortly after waking up from brain surgery.
Borut Bozic now trails Gilbert by 11 secs
He has a theoretical chance too.
By winning two more sprints there are 13 extra seconds up for grabs.
"Where there’s a will, there’s a way.": Alberto Contador, shortly after waking up from brain surgery.
Why theoretical?

I used to live near Bern and cycled, drove, and walked much of the course in the past.
Depending on whether the course is clockwise or counterclouckwise, there is a short and nasty climb/descent right before/after they race along the Aare river. Watch for helicopter shots of the Marzili baths (a park stretching along the Aare. It has several pools and grassy areas — and is free to enter). It is my kids’ favorite part of the city.
It’s a pity the course doesn’t run through the old part of town. When Ullrich won the TdS several years ago they finished on the cobble stones just above the river, which was beautiful.
I hope the sun is shining and that I get good internet video — Bern lalways ooks great on a summer day.
Too bad. For Americans it's a hilarious name.
Thanks for the direction arrows. That means the riders will descend from Bern to the Aare. Should be a few scary moments. I hope someone will watch out for Frank Schleck.
I would if i was there :-))

Greetings, everyone. Ctv says 6 minutes to live race coverage, so I'd better
get some coffee on. Nice to see so many here today!
I’ve been looking forward to this stage: I have to admit, I’ve watched the Tony section of the prologue a few times, just to get a fix. Watching Spartacus TT is poetry in motion to me… I’ve missed him so!
E-goat, dear, are you back from breakfast yet? Can you post a 2nd live thread? I cannot. (Maybe that’s why my Ed’s League VDS team sucks so bad?? No power!)
