Monday Musette – A Closer Look
Editor’s Note: In today’s Monday Musette, Mattio takes “A Closer Look at Stage 19 of the Vueltaâ€, a stage that might prove to have been a good indicator of who will be wearing the rainbow jersey six days from now. On paper, Stage 19 of the Vuelta looked like just another sprint finish. However, the … Continue reading

Monday Musette – Vattenfall, ENECO, and Films About Flandriens
Here’s this week’s Monday Musette: 1. Tyler Farrar became the first back-to-back winner of the Vattenfall Cyclassics with his win Sunday. Edvald Boasson Hagen and Andre Greipel took second and third, rounding-out what I had suspected would constitute the final podium (albeit in different positions). The race went as planned for Garmin-Transitions—the team timed is … Continue reading

2010 Tour de France – Stage 12 Wrap-Up
Here’s the question of the day: was it worth it Alberto?

2010 Tour de France – Stage 11 Wrap-Up
Mark Renshaw got a bit cheeky today, butting heads (literally) with Julian Dean and then slamming the door on Tyler Farrar in the final dash to the finish line in Bourg-les-Valence. Renshaw clearly veered from his line to cut-off Farrar and was sent home from the Tour for his actions—not that it mattered though, as … Continue reading
