How annoying was Phil Ligget yesterday declaring Sagan the winner of the stage twenty times "he did as he was expected" before crossing the finishing line. Only then to realize that there was half a wheel in front of his favourite and his world was shattered.

ja he seriously needs to retire while he still retains a shred of dignity.

time for new blood

Didn't realise that Cav' took out the British champion title. First time for him, from a breakaway as well.

 

Cav - British Champ'

Gripel - German Champ'

Sagan - Slovakian Champ'

 

Pretty ordinary jersey from the Manxman seeing as you can design your own.

Until Froome gets off the bilharzia drugs he can't be beaten. It increases your red blood cells to combat bilharzia and he's taking of the drug for the last three years is in sync with his sudden rise to the top.

 

I was wondering when someone was going to bring this up! Interesting debate, but which I can't participate in because I don't know enough yet.
