TTT thoughts
My random thoughts and comments as I watched the Giro team time trial.
- Who's the really little dude on Cofidis?
- I kind of like the silver TT helmets that Colnago-CSF Inox are using. The helmets must not have slowed them down too much. First place, right now. Of course, only two teams have finished so that doesn't mean much.
- Looks odd to see the Swiss TT champ riding for Androni-Giacatolli, and not Saxo Bank
- Footon-Servetto in first place... for now. Now if they would only fix those kits.
- Damp roads. Could be ugly for the later teams.
- Garzelli's team not look too good at the first time check.
- BMC goes into first by about 50 seconds.
- Katusha in the start house. Pozzato does the sign of the cross. Again. And, again.
- Androni-Giacatolli looking a little ragged. Three guys are skipping pulls.
- Wiggins not liking the camera in his face. Waves it away.
- Sky has a guy looking not too good. Kind of early for that.
- Looks like they lost a guy if I am counting right
- Sky getting rained on but Ag2r is in the sun at the finish line... but with a slow time.
- Some of these look slick. Glad I am not on them.
- Garmin looking good.
- Correction: Sky down to seven men. I wonder if they started with eight or nine. Those seven are looking smooth, though.
- Not liking how Garmin's Aussie champ was having to sprint onto the back of the train. Bad sign for him.
- Garmin loses Murilo Fischer. Down to seven.
- Sky losing another. Down to six
- Lampre finishing with six.
- Katusha loses two at the end. Finishing with five but will have best time easily. Almost a minute... :54 seconds.
- Uh oh, Sky's about to be down to five riders.
- Garmin not doing that well at the first split. Fifth?
- Sky, on the other hand, is rocking it. Gonna be be best time by about 15 secs... Fourteen seconds at the line.
- Omega Pharma surprises me with third place.
- Astana takes off in pouting rain.
- Milram reaches the intermediate check about as fast as a cow.
- Cervelo will be just about even with Omega Pharma... 3rd place. Pretty good.
- Garmin 1k to go. Not going to win, thats for sure. Probably half a minute down.
- 36 seconds. Fifth place. Doesn't look like Millar will get the pink jersey.
- Basso looks like a praying mantis on the TT bike.
- Saxo Bank not doing very well either at the first check. Vinokourov has to be liking this.
- Is Astana down to seven?
- Milram picked up the pace. Not great. But, an improvement. Twelfth place at the first check. Sixth at the finish. They turned into a fast cow.
- Liquigas might take the lead!
- They will... thirteen seconds. Wow.
- Basso's chances of a podium keep improving. The mountains will tell the story but its nice to have a cushion.
- Astana is about to be down to the minimum five riders. He catches back on. Did they ease upa bit?
- Saxo coming to the line. Eighth place behind Garmin. Surprises.
- Astana is is looking quick but I missed their split time.
- They are dropping their fifth rider. They won't beat Liquigas.
- The last guy is fighting.
- I think Basso is going to be in pink unless I am overlooking someone. Fifth place, :38 down on Liquigas. That would put Basso :20 up on Vinokourov
- Vino looked frustrated as he came to the line.
- Oh, I forgot about Nibali being ahead of Basso. Nibali, the last minute replacement for Pellizotti, is in Pink.
