zerocool Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 mmmmm... Was a very hard day- atleast no 40 deg like yesterday! Took the wrong road also, almost to MAlmesbury. HAd to stop and wait for the break to get back and gain the same amount of time they had when they took the wrong route.. was a nice time to let some water out..
NC_lurker Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 ZippIt, what part of the race was that taken, how close to the end?Can you id the riders?
ZippIt Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 last lapgeorge, pfannerberger,vanrensberg,froome,kakelhofferZippIt2008-03-07 08:05:20
snah2 Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Thats about a kilo from the finish? Cornu and Sabido must have gone away just before this,catching lone breakaway Dutcman who ended up third.
Austin Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Sabido went away with Cornu. Up to George to chase as Sabido only a couple of seconds behind George. Was a little uncool from the commisaires to shorten the race with one lap at late notice and failing to give adequate time gaps, otherwise the break would have been caught before we entered the climb.
THE BODY CENTRE Posted March 7, 2008 Author Posted March 7, 2008 First ascent Hells - about 1km from the topRonelle2008-03-07 10:03:42
Austin Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 was shortened. If you check in race bible it says six times up helshoogte. Route profiles on web were wrong. Same for Vissershok profile. Midway in race was announced over radio it would now only be 5 times up Hels. Believe me, I was there..
THE BODY CENTRE Posted March 7, 2008 Author Posted March 7, 2008 They came up the new Hells, down the old one. From where I stood, it looked something like this .. Jason
THE BODY CENTRE Posted March 7, 2008 Author Posted March 7, 2008 Jeremy M Great meeting you, straatvark! 2nd ascent 12h25
Willehond Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Stunning photo's ronelle! Is straatvark going to help you take some nice motorbike shots at the TT tomorrow? Just think what good shots you can get then! Impressive to see Burry in the Best Young rider jersey! Wow, and that for a mountain biker. Class
