Calm down son. Try to make some sense when you post. When you do, I will answer your questions.

This is another moronic statement. The Schleck brothers had already open the gap with Kloden on their wheel. They were already encouraged and motivated and committed to staying away and they had the strength to do so. AC's attack did not significantly change the race position of the lead group...

You still believe that Contador owed JB any respect after what he had done to him? JB was Lance's DS. Implementing Lance's race strategy. Driving behind Lance in the ITT. Contador was smart to see through that and do his own thing. And it paid off. He won. And left you guys talking about how he...

The conversation started around whether Lance had set any tempo uphill for AC. You claimed that he had done so. Then you gave an instance of Lance riding 3rd in a group behind Andy and Frank as an example of Lance setting tempo. You argue about wind, like going uphill on 3rd or 4th would make...

Has Kloden tried to win the Tour with a good team supporting him? Regarding Levi, I hear what you are saying. He tried, but he tried only once. IMO is better to keep trying and falling short (Ulrich minus his actual win) than to try once, acknowledge ones limitations (what ever happened to...

And old ePiDeMic jersey? I'm jealous.

We should wait until AC gets to his prime before making that comparison.

Here is the BIG LIE rearing its ugly head again. Jeez, it won't go away... It is not true Astana would have had a podium 1-2-3 if it weren't for Contador's "wild pistolero attacks". Andy Schleck beat Lance fair and square. Contador had nothing to do with that. And you cannot fit AC, AK and...

1- He did drop BW by about a minute, didn't he? Yes, and then he proceeded to close the gap with Nibali. Which he was unable to do. So what the hell does AC's attack have to do with any of it? 2- But it's too late because SB got motivated... It was not too late. Lance was too weak. And...

So why didn't he? AC's attack didn't change the lead groups race situation very much. Give or take 5 seconds. If Lance had what it took to latch onto Andy's group (and the virgin Mary danced a Tango, and Urs Freuler were the new Polka dot winner in the TdF) he would have done it regardless. The...

They hear this "drivel" on Versus and they all run around repeating it like chicken without a head. THINK, damn it. That's what you have a brain for!

I flew from Stansted last time, but as you know better than me, that's like over an hour north of London. Heathrow has flights too though.

Here is the BIG LIE rearing its ugly head again. Jeez, it won't go away... It is not true Astana would have had a podium 1-2-3 if it weren't for Contador's "wild pistolero attacks". Andy Schleck beat Lance fair and square. Contador had nothing to do with that. And you cannot fit AC, AK and LA...

I made the same point on a different thread. Add Heras and Basso to your list.

No need to do Madrid, you can do Heathrow/Bilbao, I've done it several times. Bilbao is about 1 hour away from San Sebastian by freeway (A8). Airport code BIO. You could also fly to the French Basque Country. Biarritz. Airport cod BIQ. It is about 40 min by car from San Sebastian. You flying...
