Happy Christmas 2012 to you.

Where did this notion come from that Kwiato sacrificed his career at Ineos? He has been leader in the classics for them forever, always at the front, always protected, he just has lacked the top percent for the last few years. The only thing he missed out on at Ineos is going for stages in the...

Re: Everyone has seen Donovan's results, but I think Ethan Hayter is the really interesting one to watch over the next few years. He's as impressive a young trackie as they've had in recent years, and he's been getting road results too.

I mean it's not as if Movistar is any less crowded in the GC rider department.

I'm watching it (British Eurosport) on the player.

Boo! Down with Pidcock! :rolleyes:

and he'll be with Wiggins on the road next year, FWIW.

"Gross" is quite clearly body shaming. It's irrelevant whether Froome (or his wife, who has posted here) would see it, the only relevant point is people masquerading as moral arbiters and then repeating the same thing themselves. Froome looks like a cyclist. Guaranteed there are people...

So body shaming is fine as long as it's anonymous. What nonsense. If you're going to complain about body shaming, DO NOT BODY SHAME. Hypocrisy hidden by anonymity is the worst.

It's almost like you forgot your entire previous post. Fat shaming - wrong. Calling Froome's body "gross" - fine.

I'd be amazed if he isn't dying to be leader at Giro or Vuelta next year. Unless he believes this was as good a 3 week race as he could potentially ride, I don't see why he would suddenly change his mind about wanting to lead. He deserves it.

Because Nieve was just about to become a GT contender before Sky ruined his career?

Bora ruined it.

Re: Vuelta Stage 18: Suances → Santo Toribio de Liébana - 16 Cos comparing him to Hitler, that's a great place to start a healthy discussion.

I expect it will be too hard for him, but I think that's a very harsh assessment of his wins. In Hamburg he beat just about everyone who is anyone; in Plouay he beat many of the names people are tipping for the worlds (Matthews, EBH, Kristoff, Colbrelli) on a course much more suited to them...
