Denmark 10h

[team fl]

Although it's Italian autumn and Veneto and Plouay would be waiting, Team FL decides to ride the tour in the friendly northren country of Denmark. Of course, Niels' recommendation did the rest. The line-up will be most probably in pure alphabetical order:

x1 Stefano Benni, gaining experience in Denmark
x2 Henri Bienvenu, serving Mr. Ollé Ollé in Denmark
x3 Niels Hörnö, finally back home in Denmark
x4 Stefan "King" Küng, King of Denmark!
x5 Jean Ollé Ollé, smiling in Denmark
x6 Pit Schlechter, keeping the salary low in Denmark
x7 Gaudenz Taverna, trials the time in Denmark
x8 Walter "WaWa" Walch, Wawants to go to Demark too

Goals: GC with Taverna, Green with Ollé Ollé, Red with Walch, White with Benni. Team classement would be nice too.

11)Vladimir Dasic. Coming Back from caribbean Holidays
12)Michael Brathwaite. he knows that there is a TT on saturday

First two stages over, with a complete different result for Team FL. On the first stage, we had some technical problems in the communication so the riders did not know what to do. Unfortunately this cost Taverna some seconds in the GC. Today, although Taverna lost some more seconds, it was a very successful stage as Benni could win it and is now wearing yellow while lending white to another rider. Anyway, we still believe in Taverna, although it does not look good at the moment. At least a podium place should be possible though.

where are favocheck?

Text-Check: I think it's pretty obvious, although in the TT lots of things can happen. Brathwaite and Lew now with the biggest chances, depending on Lew's form, as he is 4 secs ahead. Taverna with 11 secs behind him has only chances when he himself gets some bonus seconds on the road. Green will go to a sprinter obviously. Don't think, Santander will keep it or an escapee will get it. White is reserved for Lew. Red is still open while Team Sieben closes this opportunity too. Team classement is also very open, although it looks good for myself.

Second stage win by Benni. Nicy

GC standing of the important riders before the decision day:

01. 00:00 Stefano Benni (Team FL) -> TT 57
.
07. 00:43 Ryszard Lew (Radomiak) -> TT 87
.
11. 00:47 Michael Brathwaite (AlmavivaItalia) -> TT 88
.
33. 00:53 Gaudenz Taverna (Team FL) -> TT 88


It will be the three time trialists that decide the GC. Altough Benni has a lead of 43'', he won't have any chance for the GC at the end. He is just mentioned because he's the GC leader at the moment. Most probably, Lew will do it, being 4 secs in front of Brathwaite who has no form according to Alma, and even 10'' in front of Taverna. Anway, with some luck, everything is possible.

Very nice day for me again. First, Ollé Ollé wins the MS in the first half stage and then, Taverna wins the ITT in the second half stage. Btw, Form is 92 today.

So it looks like Lew made it, if tomorrow nothing really surprising happens, GW for that. As I estimated. Brathwaite second and Taverna at least on podium after one unfortunate stage 1 and a big mistake at stage 2. But 4 stage wins: I am happy
