Ow!! 360Life must be devasted at the moment.

 

Looks like tthey rode pretty hard after the tyre change, I'm sure they were behind team Rabobank by +/- 8 minutes and they managed to finish in from of them, unless Rabobank had a technical as well....

Bad luck for 360Life , that's a large time gap to make up.

 

They will also lose the African jersey to MTN Qhubeka

How much bad luck can 1 team have 360LIFE, even if they can take out 5 mins per day on the leaders it will still be tough task. How do you motivate yourself to continue after that, wishing other guys make mistakes so you can get back in the mix.

 

Though one to swallow!!!! I really think they are at least as well prepared as Songo, a few seconds in it, but not minutes

Shame that's game over for 360 Life, best they can hope for is a stage win now. Pity after a good prologue yesterday - looks like it was a chronic tyre problem
