So..who are the favorites for the elite mens TT on weds?
I'm backing:
Wiggins
Grabsch
Spartacus
Martin
Anyone else??
Current odds from Blue Square :
Tony Martin 20/21
Fabian Cancellara 5/4
Bradley Wiggins 12/1
Bert Grabsch 20/1
Richie Porte 22/1
David Millar 25/1
Phinney maybe?
thems good odds on Grabsch. Course really suits him.
Just settled down to watch it now. Will shiout fior Brammeir but Tony Martin or Spartacus I reckon.
Who's doing the commentry? Pronunciation of names is painfully bad.
Hugh Porter ?
Tony Martin
Fabian Cancellara
My money would be on these two.
Can anyone remember who the guy was with the bars that had dropped right down and were nearly touching the front wheel?
It is HP along with Boardman. Funny quote then from Boardman 'For goodness sake, someone wipe his face' Cheers for the live link Goat!
Bert Grabsch - 58 tooth chainring, wonder if he's running it: http://twitgoo.com/2npona
Bert Grabsch and his incredibly slow cadence. Just watching that guy makes my legs ache...
Be a bit more exciting with Rob Warner commentating!
What time are the big hitters going off at? OOPs - just saw it on the web page under the video 😳
bert grabsch looks soo smooth.
martin a machine
martin looks like he's not even trying compared to everyone else!
Der Panzerwagen is blitzkreiging them...
martin has destroyed the field and Wiggins with a well deserved second - rode a very composed race, not going off too fast and always getting faster.
missed the coverage (on the phone), but just saw Cancellara's last 30 secs.
Well done Wiggo - not a bad year: Dauphine GC, Vuelta 3rd, World ITT 2nd. Oh, but for that broken collar bone...
to be fair Cancellara gifted him second by stopping to hug that barrier 😐
Nice back wheel drift from Cancellara - did well to stay upright
that corner Cancellara lost it on looked well dodgy, 90 degree right hander onto a zebra crossing...
Blimey, 66 seconds over the rest of the field! How much time did cancellaras crash cost him?
