GrumpyOldGuy Posted July 6, 2013 Share Brings me to my question: Is Froome really such a superior climber or did Berto have a really bad day? Hmm, I dont know, its still 2000 kms and two weeks to go but..........I have never seen anything like that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bianchisti Posted July 6, 2013 Share Brings me to my question: Is Froome really such a superior climber or did Berto have a really bad day?Faltering at the very first test after a few days warmup??? I reckon Froome is far superior. Not just Berto who "had a bad day". Can't see anyone coming back to challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bianchisti Posted July 6, 2013 Share Hmm, I dont know, its still 2000 kms and two weeks to go but..........I have never seen anything like that before. I think The Tour is over Grumps. They're all riding for second place.Only in the doping days would we have believed it if Berto and the rest suddenly recover to have a miraculous day.

GrumpyOldGuy Posted July 6, 2013 Share Ride Of The Day - Froome & Quintana! I think Quintana got stage fright, he looked quite comfortable physically, but it seemed he was doubting himself, almost like "how can I be so far ahead of the big names" I think we will see a lot more of him in the Alps.

Jaco-fiets Posted July 6, 2013 Share Froome really gave it his all! Never seen such a show of dominance before. Really hope he can keep it up in next couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igknot Posted July 6, 2013 Share Today I am pissed off at Lance et al. After such a dominant performance, no during the performance I was already dreading a positive test. I really enjoyed how sky just rode everyone of their wheels. But I just can't shake this *** feeling. And it is lance and his merry men's fault. Aaah well tommorow I am back for more mixed feelings GaryvdM, Vetseun and The Ghost 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chro Mo Posted July 6, 2013 Share Andy Schleck did quite well, I thought. Beat Cadel to the line. Seems he is coming good, finally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really hope he can keep it up in next couple of weeks.Will be interesting to see how he handles the pressure of the yellow jersey. How good will he be if Porte has a *** day. Lots can happen. Cant wait for tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOldGuy Posted July 6, 2013 Share Andy Schleck did quite well, I thought. Beat Cadel to the line. Seems he is coming good, finally. So did I, considering his recent form, I was quite surprised. Perhaps he will try for a stage win somewhere.? Vetseun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrFine Posted July 6, 2013 Share The scenery is so awesome and spectacular. Those wild horses running down those mountain streams was a great sight to see. Breath taking riding and scenery, not to mention the crazy cycling fans. The Ghost and Chro Mo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bianchisti Posted July 6, 2013 Share Andy Schleck did quite well, I thought. Beat Cadel to the line. Seems he is coming good, finally.This is what I don't get. In 2010 Berto and Schleckie went toe-to-toe up the Tourmalet. They've both been "out" for a while and there's light years difference between them all of a sudden. Schleckie had a broken arse and now his no longer the same rider while Thomas is still in this race with the same injury. Berto, well, he doesnt look the shadow of the rider from that Tourmalet episode. I'm sure someone will do the numbers, but what must the difference be between them and Froome' wattage to make sense of today I wonder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
