Porte Sky is probably grooming Porte, so they may let him go full gas in the TT. With the rest of the team taking it easy, and Porte taking it easy in the end yesterday, not such a risk. Froome has the big last off advantage, other contenders wont have a lot of chance to react if he pulls...

Cav did bad DQ would be silly, relegated would be reasonable. The Stannard incident was not comparable, it was a crowded road and it got narrow. Cav messed up badly to knock Kittel off his bike. Cav was out of position, out of contention, and if he had to flick his bike to get around Kittel...

Bruyneel out please As much as I liked Bruynell as a rider, he has to go. Back room takeovers of a team someone set up last year. Nice, and that after all the Armstrong crap. Bruyneel is just bad for the sport. Please, can we get rid of him?

Equal for a change Agree, this is the one year for many years that the tour measured up to the Giro. I would put them about equal. Nibali was magnificent in the Giro as Contador was in the Tour. Both were struggling to keep up with the leader, but neither gave an inch. I hate watching people...

Best tour ever - Giro 2003 Never been a tour de France to match the Giro in 2003. - Simoni wins by making crazy attacks in the mountains that frequently almost come unstuck. - lots of flat out attacks with nothing held back from all parties. None of this little dig to see if they are watching...

No that good Cavendish is not that good. He has the only team that is willing to put most of their riders into a lead out train. He is going to win most stages that come to a sprint because of that. Pettachi has been close to hom several times, without a train at all. If you want to find a...

Contador needs to survive stage 14, adn then have an great staege 18. The other mountain stages all have downhils and flats before the finish. If Contdor can hang in sight of the Schlecks on the climbs he will catch them on the descent. Andy for one is not a good descender. Can't see Evans...

Perth riding You will find the hills inland of Perth pretty similar to Cali hills. Head out to Kalamunda way and you have some really good X country riding. The coastal plain of Perth is pretty flat, but windy, and makes for great road riding. And again, head into the hills for some very quiet...

LT put the Shlecks exactly where they wanted. Small group of 8 on the final climb. Only Basso had a helper, so Frank adn Andy could put on their show. It doesn't get much better than that. Frank picked up time and Andy got to sit on Evan's wheel as he did all the chasing of Frank. Basso was his...

Poll: Will Rojas win the Points competition? Just watched it. You were joking about all the way across right? They moved maybe a third of the way across, and Cav was just late moving up. If you were going to relagate someone, how about Goss for first pinning Rojas to the rail in the...

discussion!!! greipel Cheers to Greipel. He wanted to ride the big races like the tour, Cav would never give him a shot. So now he rides them, and like ever sprinter except Cav and Farrar he does not have a dedicated team, so he struggles. The fact that he is prepared to give it all for Gilbert...
