    World Championships Team Time Trial

    Has any one worked out the logic of BMC team selection yet? They have such a lot of talent on the team but make the most bizarre team choices. They say in press release don't care about result. Is this WC TTT and are BMC supposed to be a WT team?

    2013 Tour de France, Stage 15: Givors - Mont Ventoux 242.5 Km

    Don't be silly, Cadel would never allow the WC to do that.

    2013 Tour de France: Best passenger

    Gilbert fits this definition as well. Other than modelling the WC jersey, has he done anything in the race?

    2013 Tour de France, Stage 14: Saint-Pourçain-sur-Sioule / Lyon 191KM

    Can someone explain BMC tactics today? If the team was selected to be 100% for Cadel, how did he manage to drop down the GC positions today? Why was Gilbert not in the break today? It seems such a waste to see him day after day just sat in the peloton in WC jersey.

    Agreed. Include the times in the team classification but not GC.

    ...............and after this result and the BMC performance in the TTT in Nice today, I bet BMC management might be wishing he was in France too. How many Tour TTTs has Hushovd been in the winning team?

    Any New Tour Streams We Should Know About?

    you misunderstand what people are saying - we want quality broadcasting and choice, and many do not have access to TV coverage. HD only improves the picture not the quality of the broadcasting and content

    Teams & Riders Froome Talk Only

    But as BMC have not moved on and selected their 2011 team, is it any surprise the Froome is the favourite. It is definitley going to be 3 long boring weeks. How did cycling get itself into this situation? Living in the past and not moving with the times -the current format harks back to by...

    Reactions from the peloton

    I can believe that - it sums up their arrogance to the press and to the public. Most communication from the teams - press releases , websites, twitter - are patronising and treat the fans with contempt. They treat everyone not just journalists like children BMC are certainly the worst...
