Re: I can imagine a better scenario for him to ride off into the sunset, but it's nice to see him retire on a positive note.

Nibs cooked, Froome smells the blood and pushes on.

Not many spectators out there, but atmosphere is amazing.

I got all kinds of tingly feelings in my belly now.

Are we going to see Nibali attack?

Thats one sketchy descend.

Pantano to deliver Contador to bottom of Angliru?

Re: Re: Overall. Watching these guys I just can't help, but appreciate their skills. Especially someone like Taylor Phinney. I took a few minor tumbles few years back and my confidence was never there anymore. Do riders go all out on training rides as well or they leave just for races?

Who is considered best descender nowadays?

Re: Hopefully. With Contador gone there will be no one left to animate GTs.

Does any other team have a reason to pull along with trek?

Re: I would actually like hear the reason behind this.
