I can't wait to see his attempts to steal a few seconds on every summit descent.

 

Only wanker I know who attacks on the downhills for a handful of seconds. Like my trainer used to say, anyone can go fast downhill, and besides, poephol face needs more than a few seconds...

[Wyatt Earp]

Hehe yes he has to do something and if he does not try today it is because he does not have the legs.I simply can't see BMC sending 2 guys to go and just spend some time in the break for nothing.They have build the whole team to just ride for Cadel so if they go in a move it must be to help him somehow...otherwise they would just be wasting energy?

 

Unfortunately for Cadel he doesn't have much of a team, so I reckon the two out front are feeling good after the rest day and are out there just to get more exposure for their sponsor.

Edvald is doing good work upfront

Strange that BMC have spent big with major off season signings yet here we are in July all in agreement that the team doesn't look to be capable of defending the no 1.

 

Some serious money has been wasted this year in transfers on guys who have not performed. And not only at BMC.

Hah! Remember a page or two back, I said when Nibbles goes, Froome will go with him. Nibbles should have saved it for a steeper UPHILL, FFS!

Great to see Sidi have canned that ridiculous shoe cooking ad this year.

Anyone wondered why they don't put some go-pro cameras on some of the riders?
