G-Unit Posted May 18, 2012 Share “At a certain point we were on the plane back home. I mean, I will never give up, if I’m out of time, I’m out of time. But it was tough. I told Cav twice just to keep thinking about Delilah. “Yesterday he was on his hands and knees, and then he crashed as well, he was tired. “And I was like ‘that’s it, we’re not going to make it’. There were these long, long roads into a headwind and I was just giving it everything and I was like ‘just keep going.’ Then Jez came back and I was thinking ‘if he’s come back, that’s three of us going to go home.’ “But Cav was recovering really well, he was on the wheel for 20k and then he started dropping me because I was empty. And I just killed myself trying to get through on the last part.” “It was one of those Giro stages you just hate. All those small ramps [climbs], they were real bastards.“As soon as you lost contact with the bunch, it became a day that was never-ending.” “We were drilling it. For the last 20k I couldn’t see any more. I don’t know what I had, a heat-stroke. Then I had an asthma attack afterwards and I was lying on the bus for 30 minutes. Even the team doctor asked me if I wanted to go home. It was just one of those miserable days.” BERNIE EISEL ON BATTLING TO FINISH WITH CAV, PHINNEY AND OTHERS, BEFORE THE TIME CUT AT YESTERDAY’S GIRO. THEY GOT IN WITH A MINUTE TO SPARE. Sh&t your pants kids... pro cycling rules for just balls out toughness. When did you last don your fake Astana top and ride a route of more than 150kms of which 20kms you couldn't see. You don't get that by worrying about suspension, if you should have 26 or 29 inches and only going downhill! Bernie's no Jens Voight, but he's still tough as nails. So that coming from him is pretty hardcore. Respect. (FYI hellocolour, some MTB races do, contrary to widely-held beliefs, go uphill :-) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyB Posted May 18, 2012 Share I reckon the break that takes place at the 3km to go will stay away till the end..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNT1 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Schleck has moved up, not for the sprint, but just to make sure he doesnt lose even more time in GC. Why bother, Nancy? Too far down on the GC already, and not enough balls to go for a stage win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT1 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Last time I put all my eggs in the basket of the invisible man in the sky, who loves me, but will send me to spend eternity in burning fire if I do the slightest thing to displease Him. Dammit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
