Man with no name Posted July 23, 2007 Share I think we all have an idea that Barloworld has been doing well... but how well? Two stage winsOne second placeTwo Third places Robbie Hunter - second in the points classificationMauricio Soler - second in the KOM AND second in the young rider by JUST 37 SECONDS..... Any more, please add!! I did not know he was that close to Contador in the Young Rider, while I dont need to tell anyone what a class rider Contador is. Only 37 seconds!! This guy has the potential two take two of the four jerseys in the biggest race on earth and he has only been cycling since he was 17!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastapouch Posted July 23, 2007 Share They're doing very well. Almost too well. (don't think one can do too well) But the way they're riding(some of them) they'll probably get offers from other teams. Unless BW pays huge salaries after this TDF. Will be sad to see riders leave after this tour. Now this is where the PRO Tour scheme sux! No team can get in and no team can get out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VO2max Posted July 23, 2007 Share MWNN "Mauricio Soler - second in the KOM AND second in the young rider by JUST 37 SECONDS....." Maybe yesterday stage he was 37 second behind. Overall is a different story Young Rider Classification 1 Alberto Contador Velasco (Spa) Discovery Channel 64.14.382 Mauricio Soler (Col) Barloworld 9.08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumpole Posted July 23, 2007 Share With rasmussen focused on winning the race he needs to get a fair amount of time against Contador and evans still to be safe, TODAY is Soler's big chance to get in an early break and chase points.Gumpole2007-07-23 02:08:54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruxpearl Posted July 23, 2007 Share MWNN, the 37 seconds in the Young Riders Competition was only for Yesterday's StageOverall Soler is quite a bit away from Contador at 09:08But as another bonus Kanstantin Siutsou from Barloworld is third in the Best young rider competition (albeit 20 mins down)So Barloworld has 2nd & 3rd in Best Young Rider competition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
