incredibly dumb line by Klodi
What are the odds the rider in front of you will take the inside line too in a TT? duh
I do mind, the Dude minds. This will not stand, ya know, this aggression will not stand, man.
He was trying to pass someone by taking the inside line
but of course the rider in front also took that line and Klodi had to quickly switch outside to pass him

Wow, did the Astana soap opera just get interesting.
And PLEASE tell me lance isn’t even the third best rider on his own team by the end of this. That’ll thrill me.

as long as these guys can climb reasonably

I'm liking the drama
Levi, Kreuz, Klödi all right in there…
…for Tony to SMASH!!!
Not to mention Cattle & Bert.
Oh this is goooood. :)
Love Alberto's blue glasses!
I think on any other rider the kit being so yellow would look hideous but he can pull that off.
Nothing like LL Sanchez’s!
