Cav' Posted May 29, 2017 Share Don't stress dude, a bit of fan banter is always fun. (Not that I have picked Sky as my team for the TDF yet)The Dauphine starts 4 June, Froome vs: ContadorValverdeBardetMeintjiesPorteChavezMartinAru It will be a good indication of what's to come in the Tour imho.

Wannabe Posted May 29, 2017 Share Maincheese has been quiet so far this year, but I know he has been training like crazy. The Dauphine will be a good indicator of his form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cav' Posted May 29, 2017 Share During the 3rd week of the Tour all the riders who competed in the Giro will have no more legs left. THAT'S A FACT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dev null Posted May 29, 2017 Share Contador...pffft! I have been cycling since 2010, and I have yet to witness the so-called brilliance of Contador. Maincheese...I will be rooting for him, but I am afraid that once again the winds of the French coastal areas is gonna catch him out, as it always do. And his team does not really back him.

'Dale Posted May 29, 2017 Share It will be interresting to see how Quintana will perform in the TDF since this was "almost" a winning performance and I wonder if he will have the form come the TDF. It's a relatively flat TdF, I think.Have no idea about the TT mileage though. It will be a big factor.The Giro was 70 kms of TT. Definitely not in Quintana's favour.He was hoping for a time buffer against the bigger okes. Fell just short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 5 Mountain stages. One before the first rest day, two in the middle and two in the last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
