no lloyd, renshaw or mcewen for australia's worlds team. what's your take on that, haitch?
― cozémon (cozen), Tuesday, 24 August 2010 07:23 (thirteen years ago) link
no haussler either but that's not all that surprising given his sporadic season
― cozémon (cozen), Tuesday, 24 August 2010 07:25 (thirteen years ago) link
basically everyone down here reckons it's not going to be a sprinter's course. first 80km is basically down the highway between melbs and geelong, and it's dead flat, but at the course proper they'll have to go up two pretty steep climbs (x11) and the finishing straight is also uphill. think they've tailored the team so the 'sprinters' that are there (goss, cooke, davis) are basically going to be the cannon fodder to get cadel and simon gerrans (who the course probably suits best) to the front.
robbie would be protected if he was in, but if he's not going to be there at the end they'd just be burning matches for no reason. no sprints = no real need for a leadout either, so that's renshaw out of the picture. (they're taking him, davis, porte, hayman and chris sutton to delhi for the commonwealth games road race.)
perception is that lloyd likes the big climbs and the shorter punchier stuff doesn't suit him. maybe they're thinking of the trip down the highway too - it's pretty open, if spring weather in western victoria holds to form it'll be crosswind city.
i think they don't want to risk haussler's knee, he'd be a cert otherwise.

Yep. Don't think much of Sky's tactics yesterday: three in the decisive break which had a lead of about ten minutes over the rest, you'd have thought they'd be set up nicely for the GC. Instead they burnt off Thomas then Wiggins in keeping the pace high, so both of them lost a couple of minutes or so. OK, they got the stage win from Henderson, but that seems a strange priority.

Very interesting, i hadnt heard about papp's tweets.
Anti-doping authorities have lodged cases against as many as two-dozen domestic racers, sources tell VeloNews. The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency will announce the findings in the coming weeks, the sources said.However, (doper snitch Joe) Papp has been active on Twitter. On August 19, following stage 2 of the Tour of Utah, Papp wrote, “Jonathan Mccarty, don’t worry, you were really 5th today in Utah. Or at least you will be.”McCarty had finished sixth on that stage, behind Levi Leipheimer, Francisco Mancebo, Ian Boswell, Darren Lill and Phil Zajicek.On August 11, Papp wrote on Twitter, in consecutive messages, “Seriously – if you think you were on ‘my list’ I urge you turn yourself in, b/c there’s little chance of leveraging something later. Try to dissuade ADA (anti-doping agencies) from applying an increased sanction by admitting your anti-doping violation as soon as you’re confronted with it…”

The race was only 130km long and Italy fielded by far the biggest and strongest team in the race, but for Pozzato victory was an important signal to their rivals and a moral booster for everyone in the Italian team. The Italian riders rode the 70km from their hotel to the start and then rode back again, to complete a long but very successful day in the saddle.

Contador claims positive test for Clenbuterol due to food contamination. lol
― Fartbritz Sootzveti (Steve Shasta), Wednesday, 29 September 2010 23:52 (thirteen years ago) link
Alberto Contador is affected by a doping control at the last Tour de France on July 21, where it was found the substance clenbuterol.
From the time of the first communication from the UCI, August 24, Alberto Contador alleged food contamination as the only possible explanation of what happened and has put it in the hands of the cycling authorities, in the confidence that they can clarify this very serious problem, which is now made public.
The experts consulted so far have agreed also that this is a food contamination case, especially considering the number of tests passed by Alberto Contador during the Tour de France, making it possible to define precisely both the time the emergence of the substance as the tiny amount detected, ruling out any other source or intentionality.
Alberto Contador will offer today, 30 September, at 12.00 hours, a Press Conference at Hotel Las Artes in Pinto (Paseo de las Artes, n º 15), in order to give his version of what happened to the public.
