Landis Takes Overall Lead In Rainy GeorgiaTime Trial
Armstrong shows glimpse of questionable form in ninth
by Mark Zalewski in Rome, Georgia with Eddie Monnier
|
Phonak's Floyd Landis was one of two riders on his team that was able to ride the stage three time trial on the specific time trial machine -- and his team is glad they brought it. Landis rode the rain-soaked time trial in just 39:58, ahead of his nearest competitor by nineteen seconds and just six seconds off of Lance Armstrong's 2004 winning time. When told by Cyclingnews that he was over a minute ahead of Armstrong at the finish, Floyd replied, "A minute? Well, how would you feel? (laughing) [Today was] as good as I could have hoped, but it's not over yet. We'll see!"
The former domestique of Armstrong negotiated the rolling time trial and had the fastest split at the top of Mount Alto. "My idea was to go see how well the first half went, and if I had the possibility to win, take some risks on the downhill," Landis explained. "If I wasn't doing so well, obviously I would not have taken the risks."
Defending champion Lance Armstrong certainly did not have the best time trial of his career, finishing in ninth. "Clearly disappointed," Armstrong revealed right after the race. "I didn't feel great, but I thought I would do better. "I think something to consider with Lance is that it's his first time trial this year," Director Sportif Johan Bruyneel explained. "Last year [prior to the Tour de Georgia] he did a long time trial in [Vuelta ao] Algarve and Criterium International." Nonetheless, this performance will be noted around the professional peloton. "Today was definitely not a great ride from him and you can definitely see he didn't have it."

Armstrong cited fitness as the biggest reason for today's performance. "Last year I definitely got a jump on fitness. This year I was behind. I thought I caught up, but like I said now I know I haven't and it's time to review the season." Bruyneel further echoed Armstrong's thoughts, saying that the six-time Tour de France winner has enough time to get his form back to where it needs to be come July. "His basic condition is pretty good but he hasn't done any specific training yet. I'm confident we have enough time to work and get ready."
Regardless, Armstrong -- along with the rest of the world -- has a good idea of where he and the rest of the team stands. "we have to improve from here. It means gaining fitness, and losing weight -- focusing on every little aspect of the sport -- the diet, the bike, the training, the team... I even think they are a little bit behind."
But everyone still remembers that Armstrong and Bruyneel are master strategists, whether for this race or for a certain race taking place in July. CSC's Director Sportif Scott Sunderland remarked, "Don't write him off. There's still a long way to go to the Tour [de France]. Lance is lance."
Another product of the former U.S. Postal program, David Zabriskie, came in a strong second place for his CSC team, moving him in nineteen seconds behind Landis on the overall. "I was a little surprised," said the native of Utah. "It's good for the team -- Bobby and I both. We can play with it a little and see what happens."

CSC teammate and fellow American Bobby Julich didn't fare as well as Zabriskie, but still managed a fourth place -- moving him up to fourth overall. "[Bobby is] disappointed," explained CSC's Director Sportif Scott Sunderland. "He thought he did a better time. Maybe he should have had the radio. It's also the weather, with the rain it's hard to say where you are really." Regardless, Sunderland is happy with CSC's strong presence, with Brian Vandborg also in the top ten. "It gives us a joker to play with!"
Coming in third was Navigators Insurance's and former US time trial champion Chris Baldwin, who hopes that this strong set-up for the mountains will wash away a poor performance last year. "I hope it's going to be good here. I had such a failure on Brasstown last year that I really need to get that out of my head." Team director Ed Beamon is very happy to have Baldwin and current Australian time trial champion Nathan O'Neill in the top five overall. "Chris is one of the better climbers on the team and is sitting in really good position. Nathan is also really solid. The steeper pitches may give him some trouble but he's a great lieutenant."
Further disappointing for Discovery Channel was the performance of the young-gun Tom Danielson. "I had expected a little better from us -- from Lance, from Tom," director Bruyneel said after all had finished. But the team is not hanging it up just yet, with Bruyneel predicting some action over the next two mountain stages. "We're definitely not going to sit back and watch now. Tomorrow and the day after are two hard stages and I think we can still try and do something. We're going to be aggressive."
|
Armstrong agreed with his director's thoughts, saying, "We have to be aggressive. We'll just play it by ear. Now the race is on the shoulders of Phonak and CSC and we'll just be secondary players, and see if we can mix things up a little."
Tomorrow's stage four from Dalton to Dahlonega is the same as last year, featuring many steep climbs and many long inclines not categorized, but equally as painful. Race leader Floyd Landis has a lot on his plate for the next stage, and he knows it. "There are some big mountains and some teams like Discovery that have quite a few climbers. I'm certain their tactic will be to attack and have guys up the road. I know we won't be able to control the whole thing."
