As he proved in Stage 6....

Exactly. Why the hell should BMC & Cadel work so damn hard to avoid this stuff and not be able to reap the benefits

If you're so confident, have the balls to stick your cash out there and take a few of their bets. Betfair is a betting exchange after all

How exactly is his tweet a whine? He said he was disappointed and acknowledged the other team rode a better race. No more, no less.

Big signing. Looks like the next Cav to me

I must say the bookies odds certainly suggest the jerseys are pretty much settled. If you don't think that's the case, start taking some bets via Betfair and clean up. I also ageee the polka dots and white jerseys are the scraps anyway. How good was it in 2011 when Cadel swiped the yellow...
