What was Cadel thinking when he started the field sprint in today’s stage? The little climber from just outside of Melbourne was solo on the right hand side of the road, wasting energy going for the sprint. Cadel is looking beyond strong at the moment. Apparently he had to do a lot of the work to close down a gap that HTC and Vino and his boys got in the last 30k. None of us had a clue what was going on at that stage. Everyone was cross-eyed focusing on the wheel in front and endless curbs that came flying at you left and right on yet another miserable and wet day.
Speaking of wet, apparently it rained today at the Tour of California. Not even a date change from Feb to May can get them the sun everyone expects when they find out they are headed to California for a bike race. In other news, some of the boys were racing in the Tour of Picardie, and the women have just kicked off the Tour de L’Aude, but one really cares at the moment because all eyes are on the Italian skies and the Tour of Crashifornia.
