scotty Posted July 3, 2016 Share "I can’t be downbeat but my morale is not intact." ACFixed Schleck's misfortune occurred just after he had launched what he obviously hoped would be the attack to increase his 31sec lead over Contador by a significant margin, thus weatherproofing him against his expected losses in Saturday's time trial. The chain came off when Contador was about 20m behind, and the Spaniard's claim that he was unaware that anything was wrong with Schleck did not have the ring of truth, not least because in the process he also overtook his own team-mate, Alexandre Vinokourov, who certainly knew what was happening. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2010/jul/20/albert-contador-tour-de-france Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonus Posted July 3, 2016 Share I must say I feel for RP. Nearly 2 mins down after 2 days. Really bad luck for him, and I don't see he has any way of marking the big boys now. Unless they all have some really bad luck of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mntboy Posted July 3, 2016 Share I must say I feel for RP. Nearly 2 mins down after 2 days. Really bad luck for him, and I don't see he has any way of marking the big boys now. Unless they all have some really bad luck of course.His TdF might actually be over before it's even started. Two minutes is a huge gap and I don't see him reeling that in before the first high mountain stages. He has to hope that there's another shake up before then otherwise he'll too much to do in the two ITT's and the climbing stages. Realistically his TdF is now about getting a top 10 finish. Edit: I see that stage 5 is perfectly set up for RP to regain lost ground, the wait will be to see if he has the tactical know how to actually do so.

Mntboy Posted July 3, 2016 Share Yip.. watch him at Roubaix.RVV as well hey Gen. Liked what I saw from him today. Has an appetite for hard work which generally breeds opportunities for wins. Today he missed out because of his day long break. He definitely has the raw goods for a great classics rider a la Tommeke or Spartacus.

HappyMartin Posted July 4, 2016 Share We will see if Contador can come back and if Porte can get some time back. At the moment it looks like a Froome Quintana showdown is looming. Much can still happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it to pump their own wheels when they get flats, or for the sole purpose of beating delinquents? edit: They used to carry pumps in yesteryears, but Sagan is too young to have been part of that.
