slowtwitch Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 which rider were you Deep Section. I'm pretty PO'd with Brand (TCS or TSC whatever) getting "team orders" for not working in the pack and then breaking away Next time I'll also get my team car to order me not to work in the break
Poison Ivy Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 which rider were you Deep Section. I'm pretty PO'd with Brand (TCS or TSC whatever) getting "team orders" for not working in the pack and then breaking away Next time I'll also get my team car to order me not to work in the break and I'm still blaming myself for not standing at that intersection in Town for 20 sec's longer....then that result would have been different

Had to go away with Jaco from TCS or must I sit with you guys and keep you company?

I think its better if you don't...we are on opposite sides of loyalty-line here
Deep Section Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Thats me up front, and the wheel sucker in questions is drafting at the back. I really feel for David as the TCS guys used him,I would be embarressed if i were one of them

I was also very impressed with the other Cyclelab rider - leading all the way up that climb into the wind and dropping riders!!! Could you maybe PM me with the details of what happend after I started cramping and got dropped?
intern Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Hey doods - great to meet slowtwitch, deep section and auction lamb. Was also a bit frustrated with Brand but he did what he had to do. Jaco put in a flippen stunning ride to victory there. All credit to him.

Ya i do see your position, but surly it would have worked out better for David if you worked with us to kept away Jaco, this would have given David a good chance for Gold!Deep Section2009-06-01 03:21:35

Wonder Woman Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Sounds like there is a lot of bitterness here...you do know that that is part of racing...all the pro's do it as well. Look at Di Luca trying every time to drop Menchov but nope, he sat on his wheel the whole way and did nothing!!
mallo Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Once again Crux fooled the Capies into fighting amongst themselves. When you want help don't be shy speak to the other riders.

Ya i do see you position, but surly it would have worked out better for David if you worked with us to kept away Jaco, this would have given David a good chance for Gold! It is quite clear (from your comments and the way you/your team raced) that you do not actaully have a grasp of racing tactics... there were only two teams with any plan at all, Daiken Gu en TSC... both raced positive, and were rewarded with the first four places, the other teams had no plan, and no goal other than to watch the wheels of Dave Garret & Jaco from TSC... racing from the other teams was negative and in the end, netted them no result whatsoever... AuctionLamb and Brand played the perfect policeman role for their respective teams, and Dave Garret rode a really gutsy ride, taking the rest on, and Jaco was impressive to ride over the 3 minute gap to the from in 40 km's... anyone of the top 4 worthy winners cause they were racing positive and had a plan... BTW it was Brand who made the attack that created the breakaway...
AuctionLamb Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Thanks Wonder Woman . Just one of those things. Mallo - totally agree...TCS had good tactics. Daikin accept defeat....but will be back next time! AuctionLamb2009-06-01 03:52:19
slowtwitch Posted June 1, 2009 Posted June 1, 2009 Sorry seawalker, don't agree with Brand's position. He was in the break up front with non of his team mates trying to cross (Jaco only crossed later in the race). To sit up and not contobute and then jump when David attacked is just plain crap! Hats off to Jaco's effort
