One of the obvious advantages is that you can reduce your weight nicely, by resigning from bigger muscle mass in legs

It's not I think about Dawg's fear about Bradley taking leadership from him. It's more about atmosphere on the team. It's very important to have a team around that you have 100% confidence in, in their loyalty. Having Wiggins, means going to the Tour with someone rather unfriendly, someone you...

Thanks for the answers. I'm really looking forward to this race, think it will be much better than the giro. The suspense and emotion on the first mountain stage will be great

Gave it a 5. Rather weak Giro. There was never a feeling of great battle between the contenders, Quintana took the lead easy...

I think Froome will take it. But will it be broadcasted on Eurosport? Edit: According to Steephill it will be. I seem to remember it wasn't the case in last years

Using this logic, was Contador's true worth displayed in Lombardia today?

Very well said.

Are such posts OK with the mods here? Only asking, so that I may know if in the future I can make some of this type and what are the limits here. Or are these OK, as long as they are about Froome, just the same as thinly veiled Clinic accusations are completely OK as long as they are about...

Very good analysis

Let's hope it's true...

I find it quite possible that he is a nervous person, with a tendency to erupt, both on the bike and off the bike. It can have positive effects as it makes him more likely to attack, but negative ones as well. Check for example his reaction to people running too close to him on Verbier...

Thanks, best explanation on the thread definitely

Pozzato is definitely very hard when he is in front of the mirror

Perhaps Bradley is trying to learn something from his idol, Lance. In 2009 situation was similar: two leaders, super strong team, and Lance also did the Giro, like Brad is doing now! Then, all Lance's plans were based on idea that once he gets the yellow, Contador will not attack him, and the...

The media have also a part in this, because frankly Hesjedal is not as marketable as Nibali-Wiggins battle. Reminds me strongly of 2009 Tour, when previous year "unexpected winner" Sastre (just like Hasjedal) got completely ignored, because of Armstrong/Contador tension. However in that case...
