Tour de France 2012

I hope Sagan takes today even if it is not a finish that suits him. If not him then Greipel or Vino. Basically anybody except ..........

Have I missed something, or has it only taken Pinarello 2 weeks to get Wiggens a yellow bike??? If I remember correctly Voeckler got his yellow Colnago overnight in the last Tour that he wore yellow.

 

Takes a while to import from China

With the price of a Pino even Sky has to save for a while

The Cav has never lost the final stage in Paris...

Let's see, Jaco-fiets.

The thing is if he's in the front pack when they kick for the line, unfortunately there is no rider yet in pro cycling who can take him. Not too fond of Cav but the guy is bloody quick

[Cippo]

Sagan is gonna hop on the Sky train with Cav as his lead out man.

It's going to be an awesome finish I cant wait.

Cav should take it on paper but you never know - even Greipel can or bloody Farrar lol

The Gorilla would want nr 4, as well as Sagan.

Goss, regular bridesmaid, would desperately want get that one stage win for O GreenEdge.

But this is Cav's playing ground. He knows that final bend very well.

Quoting Dale there is now talk of them staying on in maybe a reduced role, there is talk of maybe Cannondale being the name sponsor.

 

Yeah, that's the latest rumour.

 

On another note, the 'super teams' of BMC and RNT failed to make any impact.

Let's hope the Liquigas squad do not follow the same route.

 

Is RNT still on top of the best team category

Yeah its all about the riders at the end of the day not a big sponsor.

Liquigas does not need the pope to sponsor them to be a good team....maybe just Cannondale..

Yes. They still wearing half yellow lids. 20 teams agreed with organisers to wear yellow lids as top team. Only Astana and RNT disagreed.

They're looking for a GC rider, with Sagan to lead the one day races.

Maybe Froome Dog?

I must admit it would be awesome but Froome dog will never leave sky.

Too bad Contador already signed with Saxo..

Contador is very loyal to Saxo as they supported him through his ban.

With the Schlecks and Nibs rumoured to move to Astana, I wonder how that team hierarchy will work.

 

Wonder what it would cost to buy Froome Dog out of the remainder of his 3 year contract?

:-p

Wiggins only wanted a full yellow machine once he was certain of overall victory i.e. on the final stage to Paris...
