Mudsimus Posted January 30, 2018 Share Two words: motor pacing.Jip, someone is pissed that he lost his Strava section to a flying Froome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclewizz Posted January 30, 2018 Share No Hear Rate or Power data on Strava for Froome.He must ride with a 2nd device that logs all that info. According to Strava he does an avg of 31.5hrs of riding a week.That's a LOT of riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patchelicious Posted January 30, 2018 Share Do we really...have Froome and or Sky publicly said that they aren't doing the PK test..did I miss that statement somehow [emoji848].. sorry I am not trying to be funny..I am asking a question an honest one.. I don't recall an official statement... With this case unless it's a statement from team/rider/uci/wada everything else is speculation.. Sent from my SM-G950F using TapatalkYes, we don’t know what they are up too because they haven’t told us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody should tell his boss that he's missing a few hours of work every week !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody should tell his boss that he's missing a few hours of work every week !!!Like your logic about sleeping..... I'll convey that to my boss ASAP. I also need lots of sleep to perform optimally in the corporate environment. And I work on avg just under 50 hrs a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I work on avg just under 50 hrs a week. Comparing wholly different scenarios, it isn't a competition. All in all, a pro's only job isn't just riding their bike and sleeping, there's a ton of off the bike duties to fulfil while still maintaining a full training schedule that matches most full working hours on it's own.In general they also work a full week like anyone else with as many pressures, given that an athletes competitive career as a pro is truncated compared to a normal 9-5, the pressures are even more compounded compared to the rest of us.

scotty Posted January 30, 2018 Share Motor pacing is part of their training. Make strava ride publicly available, critics - cheat. Baldy Bastard @JohnFoyEFC 21m21 minutes agoMoreReplying to @maximus_hoggus @StravaHow can you cheat on strava? Who's arsed? Make strava ride private, critics - what is he hiding. Damned if you do, damned if you do not. I'm sure Froome is losing no sleep over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G950F using TapatalkIt’s an AAF, and they need to explain why there was an AAF. Who said it was a kidney failure? The team said that, so that’s official, no? Sky have to defend the kidney issue, and can’t change their defense to suit the moment... or maybe they can.

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI really just asked as I didn't see their statement on the kidney thing only an article that stated a source..or something like that...it's all fuzzy...along with my brain. I think they could probably change it until they found the most probable explanation [emoji6] Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
