So what you are saying is that Cancellara decided he didn't have the
motivation to win the ToC TT but decided to be motivated enough to place
fifth? Or maybe he is so good that he just took the day off and wound
up in fifth place anyway.
I say ********. He wanted to win to show the likes of Levi and Dave Z.
who was boss in the TT. He tried his best, but it wasn't good enough.
Then, loser that he is, he makes a lame excuse. No class.
