Wez-O Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Big Tom grintaaaaaa http://cdn.velonews.competitor.com/files/2015/09/20155154-280586-666x440.jpgI've got so much respect for this guy, he probably weighs 20kg more than the likes of the guys attacking him.
Erroli8a8 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 This is by far the best tour. with all the banter for many a rider makes this tour something to watch, when you know that anything can happen at any time makes it a great tour to watch. I am just loving the close riding, when only one rider is there it makes it boring. go boys. Main Cheese you give them horns in the TT. lets see a top 10 finish for a true SA Boy.
Patchelicious Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 I've got so much respect for this guy, he probably weighs 20kg more than the likes of the guys attacking him.You know I thought the exact same thing, he looks so big. I thought the numbers he must be pushing would be "out of this world".But all the stats I can dig up on him say he weighs 71/72kgs that's only 5 more than Aru, 9 more than Majka and 13 more than Qdog, but 18more than Chavez
ScottCM Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 You know I thought the exact same thing, he looks so big.

Which is all a positive thing. That being said, Chavez really isn't doing so great then.
Patchelicious Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 10 rider break with 19mins on the peloton, 82km to go and guess what, there is a Schleck in the break!
T-Bob Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Still 19mins gap with 68km to go. I'll make a bold call and say the break is going to stick today....
Patchelicious Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 I'll make a bold call and say the break is going to stick today.... Sheez I don't know hey, bit of a 50/50 call that
Patchelicious Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Last climb on Strava https://www.strava.com/segments/alto-ermita-del-alba-2623407
Bianchisti Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 But all the stats I can dig up on him say he weighs 71/72kgsIf he can climb at that weight, how is he when it comes to riding at 50km/h???
Patchelicious Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 If he can climb at that weight, how is he when it comes to riding at 50km/h???We will see tomorrow!! Looking forward to it.
Gen Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Frank is having a great day.. just riding a good tempo not too worried about the rest getting paced by him. Must say, it's rather nice to see him on the front of a race again.
Gen Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 We will see tomorrow!! Looking forward to it.And even on Wednesday [emoji6] as tomorrow is a rest day [emoji5]
