dev null Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Aren't Lampre the team that used to have Willier bikes equiped with the best Campy kit one could buy? If so, I would also be miffed.
dev null Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 With a bit of Googling I informed myself. http://velonews.competitor.com/2012/10/analysis/lampre-and-wilier-at-odds-after-10-year-run_263175 My lazy and bad.
HappyMartin Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I'm hoping Daryl has a good TT. He was a big part of OGE winning the team TT and he will be in SA colours being the current TT champion so Go Daryl. fabes 1
Meezo Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Cycling Direct @CyclingDirectSA 3m RT @TourDeJose: Race commissaires say it was Tom Veelers’ fault (via @willfoth) so no consequences for Cavendish. Hmmm LA saga comes to mind. "So OPQS how much $$$$$ you got??" Cavendish most talked about in sprints so this doesn't surprise me... And yes i know he's is probably the best there is!!
TALUS Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 I am so sick of this. Cav has his shoulders dropped and coming long before the wheels of Veelers moved to the right. He won this decision because of previous achievements (very considerable -agreed) and his sellability - not because of any rational thinking. No I have never sprinted at 65k/h but that is not required to look at the tape. IMO Meezo and The Ghost 2
udxcob Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 Talus, cab claims he was following the road (holding his line) but watch him in relation to the whit line
Delgado Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 Cav, you common Milwall supporting effing wanker!...there...fixed! akneethling 1

Tumbleweed Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 (edited) The way I see it. It might have been a "racing incident". It might not have been malicious. But it was deliberate. He was quick to take to social media to defend himself. He knew he did wrong. He petulant behaviour afterwards belies a guilty conscience. When he was pressed on whether he had caused the crash, he grabbed the reporter’s recording device and put it behind the curtain at the entrance to his team bus.

Tumbleweed Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 Kittel disagrees: Kittel, on the other hand, totally disagreed with his team-mate and said that Cavendish was not at fault. "It was very unlucky, Tom was going out [dropping back], Cavendish was going up, their handlebars clashed and he [Veelers] just lost control. I cannot imagine it was on purpose, it's something that just happens sometimes." The race officials agreed and Cavendish was not declassified. http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/cycling/tour-de-france-mark-cavendishs-charge-held-back-by-crash-controversy-8698556.html
