Paris-Nice Stage 4
What was that today? A team like Rabobank not really able to control the race on what didn't appear to be a terribly hard route. Gesink isolated with tens of kilometres to go and still a fairly large group around him. I don't understand, ever since I've been following professional cycling domestiques could just sit on the front of the bunch day after day. It's almost as if they actually get tired now
 Is this another sign of the more human face of the new cycling? Or there's a bug running thru the team. |

Isn't it a little bit early in the season for blood transfusions? And wouldn't it be too risky for an in'n'out blood 'exchange' (at least you'd wait until after P/N). Oh ... you mean a real bug? I s'pose it's possible. |

Re: Paris-Nice Stage 4
I dont think the team is strong enough to defend the jersey.
Gesink might have to go on the attack. |

If this keeps up the sprinters will have a hard season. Voekler might win the ProTour.

Re: Paris-Nice Stage 4
I don't understand.... Hincapie could sit on the front of the bunch for 9 stages running and then ride off on the 10th stage and win a mountain finish.... what were these guys doing ?
