Hey look. Garmin has two men in the break. :p

popasniff?

sheesh do you EVER stop?

Mitchell - would you care to contribute something here?

OK - Who's gonna take the sprint after the break gets caught? Petacchi?

OK, if we have a sprint finish with no Cav in the race, who would you guys think is the best sprinter/team left at this point?

I'm changing my tune. Break will stick. Popo attacks and solo win.

Sastre leaps off the front with 3 K to go and wins by 30 seconds. Yes I'm kidding. :D

Think that would be a safe guess, I would think if Garmin knew the break was going to be caught they may have Julian Dean drop back and sit in until the finish, he may have a chance....

Petacchi.

Specialized probably really digs the ISD and Saxo Bank riders out on front riding their gear in the same video frame.

I don't think they're going to get caught.

pate popped?

this is a heck of a slugfest

nope, he's still there.

pate's not going to win it. no sprint.

bak is looking good.

and QuickStep

I think McCartney is gonna get it.

I'd be OK with that. :thumb:

that looked painful

nice finish.

Scarponi, meh...

Great effort by Pate and McCartney - but...

Indeed.

THAT was exciting :)

even with no sound while listening to Gene Ammons.

Ugh. Pate, as usual, looked strong but failed to deliver. I don't even know what McCartney was doing.
