Maybe it’s our fault? Yesterday we said that ‘barring Acts of God,’ Cav would win.
We got it half right; there was an almighty ‘Act of God’ with South African champion Robbie Hunter bouncing around the road like a rubber doll and a whole clutch of riders biting the dust.
As the director cut to close up and what was happening at the crash site, there was Cav sitting on the tar, stunned.
He’s a tough wee soul – ”stoic is the word, I think.
Meanwhile ‘Big Awnd’ Greipel as we’d say in Scotland was just too quick for ‘Ale Jet’ Petacchi.
Paul Sherwen got it right when he said that a year or two ago, ‘The Jet’ would have turned on the after burner and left the big beast from Rostock in his jet wash.
But Old Father Time stalks us all; no matter how cool we still look.
Greipel hadn’t finished cuddling his boys – I wonder where he picked that up from? – when my phone rang.
It was Vik, I knew it would be.
Sometimes his rants can be a tad irrational – sock lengths and things like that – but often he’s on the money.
‘Cav has to leave that team’ they’re not looking after him properly – he’s an afterthought.
“It’s OK saying that “he can win without a train” but take that crash in the Giro; and then look at today.
“He won the other day, granted, but it’s much more dangerous to be on your own in that madness than tucked in behind your team.
“Greipel was well out of trouble and so was Petacchi; Cav deserves better, he’ll be snapped up by another team for next year – mark my words!”
It sounded like joined up thinking to me, but ex-pro Dan Fleeman sees it differently;
“I don’t think he’s vulnerable, no.
“Cav is very good at moving around in the bunch, it was just bad luck, today.”
Time will tell who’s right.
RadioShack: there have been spats about performance, money, riders quitting/talking about the team, who should/shouldn’t be on le Tour and Frank is missing his ‘bro.’
But it doesn’t seem to be doing them any harm.
Big Fab and his pack of old dogs have a tight grip on that maillot jaune – and are now leading the Tour of Austria too, with Jakob Fuglsang.
The marketing boys at Trek must be pleasantly surprised.
For a while there, it all looked black – although listening to the rumour mill, it’s difficult to see the team surviving into 2013 in the same format.
And going back to our biblical theme from our opening sentence, ‘the Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away.’
Whilst Michael Mørkøv enjoys the limelight and polka dots in le Tour, his friend and man with whom he won a rainbow jersey in the madison, Alex Rasmussen is experiencing what an unjust sport this can be.
There are many points worthy of comment in this case, not least of which is that the UCI under the rules of its own constitution is not meant to poke its nose in to the business of individual federations.
But there should be a caveat to that one; ‘unless we don’t agree with what they decide.’
And on the subject of rules it’s clear that these only apply in one direction, if Alex is late with submitting then that’s heinous, if the UCI is late in informing him and thereby break their own rules then it’s irrelevant.
But the thing which for me makes the whole thing a farce is that during one of his misdemeanour he was riding the Berlin six day and was tested at least once to my knowledge during that race.
There’s no Wisdom of Solomon on display here, just spite from an organisation which has clearly lost a sense of priority.
The man made mistakes, granted – but the situation called for a slapped wrist, not ‘tons of bricks,’
It’s all very sad – but back to le Tour and the big question of the day; ‘who’s going to win into Saint-Quentin?’
There are no classified climbs – good news for Michael – in the 196.5 kilometre run from Rouen and it’s highly unlikely that it will end in anything other than a mass charge.
Sprinters ride as much with their hearts and heads as their legs – given that, Greipel must start as the favourite.
GreenEDGE will be desperate to make amends – but maybe too desperate?
And whilst Cav must be hurting after yesterday, his pride will be pricked and he’ll be out to remind us all who the boss is.
We’ll all know come tea time.
Ciao, ciao.
