Olympian1010 7,477 Posted May 15, 2019 #31 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Horrid last 5km for Tejay Van Garderen. His chains snapped, he took the wrong route, and got caught up in a crash while behind the peloton. All while wearing the yellow jersey. 1km to go “Sport has the power to change the world.

Also a very impressive win for Remi Cavagna the day before, and a great ride for young American Alex Hoehn.

I’ve been disappointed again this year by Lawson Cradock though. I really though that he was going to be next good American rider... “Sport has the power to change the world.

Americans who are promising when they're young are generally disappointing in the end If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,557 Posted May 16, 2019 #37 Share Posted May 16, 2019 (edited) Hahaha they gave everyone the same time after Van Garderen's fall so he wouldn't lose time after all Which would be fine and, more importantly, according to the rules if it was within the last 3km, but it wasn't.

It's rather annoying to hear (and yes, just to be sure: Dumoulin not getting the same time as the rest is 100% normal, it'd be stupid if he was saved the way Van Garderen has been saved) If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,557 Posted May 16, 2019 #40 Share Posted May 16, 2019 So Vaughters is expecting Van Garderen to either fall way, way behind on Mount Baldy or utterly annihilate everyone there and arrive 15 minutes before the rest?
