Okay, I re-watched it and it looks even less drastic than it did on tv and without knowing for sure it was just aggressive riding at a time when aggressive riding was in order, and surgically executed by the way lol.

Jorge was two seconds off true race pace, hmm, how was it that he dominated the race then lol. just ribbin ya brother. Not a wheel wrong anywhere, nothing rattles this kid and next year look out! I think JL will have to up his game and I think Yam will be there to help whatever he needs.

On another note, what an awesome team with three great riders, Tech Three! Kudos to Yam. Poor Crutchy on the duc. lol.

Should have also said - it could be either scenario, we will probably never know. It could really go either way imo. It seemed he lost a position and then was willing to sacrifice running too deep to get it back. This could be two in the same, the move accomplished two things at once. Still a brilliant move either way considering the outcome :smt041
