I like Rodriguez and sure he is upset but he was beaten fair and square. Needs to get over it. How much work did Rodriguez do in the first 250km? Anyway this is not a competition to see who works the hardest and sucks wheel the least. Some Italian would likely have won that.

 

Not so good Team GB. Thought you guys knew about rain.

Hehe, feel for Rodriguez

 

I agree. It's tough but the record will show Costa won. Don't think any of us complained to loud when Ciolek did that to Sagan at Milan-San Remo.

Mistake in the end made by Valverde to mark Nibali and not Costa. Thats pro cycling, agree that Ciolek did the same to win MSR.

Crash would have taken a lot out of Nibali, too

 

Definitely.

Looks like he had very good legs.

 

That's racing.

Some say that the energy that J Rod used to 'convey his message' to Costa, was exactly the energy needed to gain that final metre on Costa

Nibs is tough like nails - to crash quite hard and still be in the final selection

 

Jip that was something....gotta respect that... :thumbup:
