I dont see anyone challenging Froome this year. Race looks done and dusted.

With Aru sitting in second and a sniff away from yellow, you never know what dastardly moves Astana will resort too. They might just do something to spice up the challenge.

 

Well besides their usual rest day BB.

Sometimes the most basic answers is the best, had a good LOL at that.

 

You are on a roll lately! Work slow? No wedding to plan at KPMG?

Work is chilled.

 

Edit: I would like to keep my job

Top 5 are still really close. I would not write anyone off just yet, will all come down to week 3 form. If this was 2016, I would have agreed with you. Lets see if Froome's peak is just later in season or not there. 

 

Aru is miles better than last year. Lucky he is not in yellow, otherwise people would be mentioning that his U23 coach was a known "doctor" and other riders he has coached have been busted. But he is not in yellow, so we wont go there.

Aru is going to be as popular as a pork chop in a synagogue after this tour. If he beats Vroom then it's all going to go back to his little attack on Sunday when Chris was having a mechanical.

 

We forget that Nibali and Quintana were willing to attack Du Moulin when he was literally caught with his pants down...

 

Aru is young and restless so lets hope he lights things up soon and there is a one to one battle out the front - anything else and this tour is basically done....

 

I cant recall if Aru can Time Trial? If he can't - game over....

Also, Lance won stuff. Hitler lost the war. We only want to hear from winners.

But you must remember - Hitler lost his interest in cycling after this well known incident:

Remember when they ordered a re-fill for Vino . . . And then he was blood tested instead of urine tested?

 

He must have thought to himself "aaaaw bollocks"

Ja the dam/river just won't cut it. Also I would need favourable weather.

Jis this TDF is going to be remembered for..

 

The incompetence of the UCI

 

Rival teams working for their main competitors.

 

Riders breaking unwritten rules

 

Peloton insulting a rider for wanting to go in the break but not allowed to as the day is supposed to be slow.

 

The fastest guy is sprinting against himself.

 

The guy that was giving a golden opportunity to win the green is finding that going in up the road on difficult stages and then still being able to perform the next day on the flat lands is easier said than done even when you have a team to help you.

 

Then the team that had some of the best tactics we have seen in a long time is getting hardly and praise for it.

 

Then there is that oke that knows his cycling and is talking about without showing bias towards any rider and people seem to not want that.

 

Then you have a french paper deflecting to a rider who as a youngster had a dodge coach..like with most in the peloton.

 

An Italian paper calling the French paper out for them having to deflect.

 

[emoji23] [emoji23] the circus that is the TDF.

Well apparently .. how much truth is in it I don't know.. it may just be blown out of proportion or translated wrong or interpreted incorrectly.

 

But at this point almost anything is possible.
