dracs Posted July 16, 2013 Share If I remember correctly my list is the Tour only and excludes ITT's - where obviously you don't have pedal for 200km at 45km/h before you reach the climb, and you can measure your effort to go as fast as possible, versus tactical riding and responding to attacks.Sure - and I mentioned the 2 year's that times were from ITT's for that reason... Quite a few other faster from other races where timing was available though... Your list took only the most recent 3 tours thereby excluding for example Pantani's 57.34...

jcza Posted July 16, 2013 Share Does anyone know how many points are available on Sunday for the sprinters or is it a done deal that Sagan will get green? Same for white jersey, I see the gap is around 2 minutes but surely with Alps to come Quintana will hold on. Will Froome let someone get away to grab the Polka dot jersey? My pick was Rolland.

dracs Posted July 16, 2013 Share Blog on cyclingnews by Richie Porte http://www.cyclingne...k-or-be-flicked"We know that Tuesday's a hard stage. We've been here before and it blew to pieces at the start in the cross-winds and there's some hard climbs"... Wonder what the wind is doing today? I reckon this is the only way Froome could lose much time in the rest of the tour - the other teams need to attack him on the flats (before the climbs) - and some wind will help...

Vetseun Posted July 16, 2013 Share How screwed up is this: If Chris has a bad day everybody gets on the bandwagon and points out how sky is cracking etc. When he has a great day he is a doper! Geez, give it a break already! Enjoy the racing and hate LA and his cronies a bit more for screwing it up for everyonesad but true. They have created a situation whereby when a rider does good, questions are asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
