Funny how these things affect people differently. My estimation of Froome has gone way, way up. Great stuff. Caveat. Still hate Sky.

What's with the Eurosport UK Tejay love???

Re: Doesn't that beg the question as to WHY he was poorly positioned? And don't mention team strength, Froome was leading Kwiatkowski for the last K. I get it. Froome has a bad day and we're all hoping that it's not over. But it is.

Re: Re: I take your point, but it seems to me that there is so little urgency in the way Froome is riding that he's holding something back. I would speculate that, from day one, the penultimate stage TT has always been on his mind. I could, of course, be wrong, but I am expecting him to...

Hated the way Aru rode today. Does he really believe that by following Froome's wheel up to Stage 20 he's going to win this tour? I'm starting to believe the conspiracy theories that Froome intentionally gave up yellow to win this Tour the easy way - with a two minute win on the ITT.

Re: Tour de France 2017 stage 9: Nantua > Chambéry - 181,5 k Didn't you know it's a sign of a healthy persona and a successful life to criticize everything?

Re: Re: My sarcasm detector just broke.

OK. If I don't see EVERYONE vs Sky from hereon in, I am going to be ********.

Why do I get the feeling that this is going to turn into a Sky procession again?

Can LRP really maintain this sort of form all the way to the third week of the Tour?

Landa's going to struggle to *** this one up.

Looking at that time gap staying put, it looks like Thomas had some decent form.
