Don't forget that the heads of state are also likely to appear in the Green and Polka Dot classifications too, but yes - anyone that picked a young rider should do fairly well... providing that rider makes it to the finish...

 

Ja, I'm taking a risk. But then I'd rather go for the win than follow the regular crowd :)

Given Cavendish's historical performance in the Tour, he was a certain contender for the Green - hence 65 thought it was a safe bet.

Just shows how quickly the game can change.

Those hour-glass head tubes. Do they provide specific ride benefit or are they more just about looks?

 

Aero gain?

 

Minimal marginal gain?

Today, Sagan to get 2 secs over The Gorilla and Super Hairstyle and to claim yellow, white and green

 

:ph34r:

 

So 'Dale, while i understand and appreciate you milking every last second of glory while Sagan is riding for Cannondale, the big question is, will you still support him as profusely next season when he rides for another team or will you merely move onto the next best rider Cannondale has?

 

Personally if i was DS of Cannondale i would sign Wilco Kelderman and build the team around him.

 

Edit: Poor spelling

We must remember that Sagan is essentially a sprinter that can climb a bit. The factr that he sat with the tope contenders over those nast climbs where many better climbers failed is exceptional. His legs must have been poked after getting over the climbs
