igknot Posted September 25, 2013 Author Posted September 25, 2013 If Cancellara was indeed concentrating on the road race we are in for some fireworks.
Tumbleweed Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Martin punches the air as he stops the clock 41 seconds ahead of the wig. damn Managed to tell us how many titles he has now too!
Bianchisti Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 RjvR at 42nd overall. 5 minutes off the pace
Eldron Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Reiny in 42nd. Jay T in 55th. Damn that fading Swiss - cost me my prediction ;-)

Eldron Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Hmmm....Martin, Wiggo, Cancellara for me The Oom calls it. One beer on me sir! jcza 1
Eldron Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013   Put your money on him for the road race - I recon it will be between him, Sagan & Gilbert I reckon the road race is gonna be a crap shoot. Course isn't hard enough to eliminate the opportunists. Wouldn't be surprised if we see a relatively unknown winner - all comes down to who breaks away and who chases rather than the strongest rider.
CAAD4 Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 MAAAAARTIN !!! What a champion Thank goodness. Wasn't looking forward to hearing about this over and over for the next 50 years...

Eldron Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Interesting that Martin won clinchers. 24.2mm and pumped to 8 bar.
'Dale Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 "I started to handle the pressure in 2011, and I learnt to handle the pressure and to use the pressure. For me, time trialing is all about the head. You need goals that push you. I need the pressure on the start so that I want to win. I need it to push me, that's only way for me that works. You need to be strong in the head and you have to like pain. For me it's more painful on the climbs, so I prefer an hour on the limit in a time trial."Â Â TT world champ Martin
