Cav' Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Condensed answer No Longer answer No I would have preferred Contador to remained uninjured and rather been demolished, beaten (choose any synonym) fair and square by Froome when he arrives in Paris wearing yellow. Fair enough. and Maybe he recovers...
'Dale Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Like Contador or not he is a hard man. Doesn't bitch and make excuses. Suffers in silence. He can't even get out the saddle at the moment, and that's how he rides. Yes the struggles on. It's stuff like that that attracts me to the sport.He's classy hey, HMIndeedWithout a doubt, most successful GC rider of his generation
HappyMartin Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Main Cheese moved up 11 positions to 19th just 11 s back from a huge group on the same time that include Quintana, Froome, Aru and all the other GC contenders.

As you say, he doesn't whine much on the road.
Mntboy Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Super stoked for GvA, one of my favorite riders by far (even more the Sagan )That sounds dangerously sacrilegious! Next you're going to tell us that Hinault is greater than Merckx. Sent from my GT-S6790 using Tapatalk

'Dale Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 "It’s becoming a different kind of Tour for me, where I have to go day by day and perhaps change my objectives. I have to see if I can recover for the Pyrenees and if I can’t then I’ll have to wait for my moment in the Alps." 'Berto
Bonus Posted July 6, 2016 Author Posted July 6, 2016 I wouldn't underestimate him until Paris is on the horizon. . . .

Gen Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 So I missed another eventful stage.. GVA in yellow.. shees well now BMC have to defend it.. Bertie still fighting.. hope he is recovering a bit before the big mountains. SAGAN in Green.. so all is still good with the world.
