The Teaboy Jul 2009 2:28pm, 5 Jul 2009 534 posts	0 The Teaboy Cancellara won't top 5 if Andy Schleck is in contention. Riis will use him to help the team leaders like last year.

Chrisull Jul 2009 4:26pm, 5 Jul 2009 1,002 posts	0 Chrisull They had a whole bit on how Lance Armstrong doesn't feel older he says, but says it comes home to him when he rides against the sons of the people he used to ride against. Cav was magnificent today, great performance - bet it won't be his last win either.

Jason1969 Jul 2009 4:44pm, 5 Jul 2009 2,115 posts	0 Jason1969 Don't think Boonen went down, but he was slowed by it. In many ways, a predictable early stage. 1. Break goes away. 2. Break gets caught close to the finish. 2a. Someone tries a cheeky getaway. 3. There's a crash in the last km. 4. Big sprint team sets it up perfectly. I'm split over Cavendish. On the one hand he's a cocky, arrogant git. But on the other, he's a bloody good bike rider. It'll be fantastic to see him go head to head with Boonen.
SherryB Jul 2009 4:48pm, 5 Jul 2009 938 posts	0 SherryB I don't think he's cocky or arrogant - just incredibly self-assured and confident.
Jason1969 Jul 2009 4:50pm, 5 Jul 2009 2,117 posts	0 Jason1969 You may have a point there, SherryB. It's a fine line. I do like how he acknowleges the support from the team, many of whom could be getting those wins.
