I would have like to have heard what Bettini was shouting at
McEwen 1k from the finish as Robby sat on his wheel. I'm sure the gist of it was "take your turn, you chump," but I bet it sounded a lot better in Italian! |

When we were watching it live my wife even knew that Bettini was not going to gift wrap this win for McEwen. Hushovd is some kinda horse!! Thor the Viking god? -Ken |

dunni, but Robbie replied: "Dumbass, I'm a sprinter. Shut up
and pull." Somehow that rang a bell with Bettini, and after 10 seconds he realised that made no sense. |

Did see it lat night, he simply sat up, drifted to the side and waved him through as if to say, "after you, Robbie." Nothing untoward about it. |

That gesture doesn't mean what you think it does. It's roughly a mixture of disappointment, frustration and contempt. And he did it twice. That pony that is going around the pelOton - watch out where its head shows up... |
