I think it was Ian Stanard who did the protecting towards the end? He's giving stanard a pat on the back..

100% you are right. Typed EBH but was thinking Stannard! Both key guys for him on the flat Edited by dracs

The Dawg road a very impressive TT yesterday, being 2 secs up on Tony Martin at the second check was a damn good effort, little fade towards the end was nothing to speak of. On a day that no one got close to Martin shows that Froome has got some good guns under him. And that bike it was like stupid sexy!

Name change for the 2013 machine?

No its an all new bike. Lighter stiffer and more aero than the graal... It the same one Wiggo threw in the ditch at the Giro... :whistling:

“I knew I had a really good buffer already – almost four minutes on Contador. And okay, I worked really hard to get that time gap but you can't win them all...It was a really tough day. I don't think anyone was expecting it to be this hard. On paper it was a flat day and it should have been a bunch sprint but with those crosswinds it definitely made the race a lot more exciting. Today we were really missing Edvald who crashed out yesterday breaking his shoulder. He could have been someone today who could have really helped us to keep at the front of the race..."
