    Rate the TdF 2017 route

    Can anyone tell me if there is a site where I can find all the stage profiles? Le Tour site has nothing.

    Teams & Riders Tom Dumoulin discussion thread

    Re: Re: Barguil is a priced commodity for Sunweb. He's their top prospect and developed as a GC rider from the beginning, so I don't think they will ask him to do the domestique role. He's expected to lead the TdF in the near future. Dumo is still new to the GC game, so he can keep doing the...

    Now Sunweb is going to have to sign a bunch of climbers to help Dumo. Who will be available at the end of this season?

    The guy is only 26, so he hasn't matured yet as a GC rider. Heck, this was his first time going for GC in a GT. His climbing will only get better and better. He is a time trialist afterall, and he has never been good with responding to attacks. In another couple of years, he'll be more complete.

    Teams & Riders Nairo Quintana discussion thread

    Re: Quintana is arrogant enough to think he could under-prepare and soft pedal to win the Giro, now he didn't win it, and going to the Tour he's going to get smoked by Froome, so if he's smart enough he would opt out of the Tour. Losing the Giro to a former pure time trialist should be a...

    Re: He literally won the Giro on his own. And he had enough time to take a dump and still win it. This is even more impressive than Contador's 2011 Giro.

    Giro 2017, stage 19: S.Candido/Innichen - Piancavallo 191 km

    Dumoulin is riding the GC I have never seen before. No race leader hangs all the way back of the pack

    Why is Dumoulin so far back in the peloton?

    Still another 35km before the final climb. I think I'll have a nap to deal with the boredom.

    Re: The final actually suits Dumoulin.

    Maybe Landa will finish second again.

    Wow, FDJ still has half the team there.

    Giro 2017, stage 18: Moena - Ortisei 137 km

    Re: Re: He's right though. Quintana and Nibali should have worked with him to shut down Pinot. Now they have a good chance to lose the podium.

    Re: Among to the top 10, Dumo is the best time trialist by a mile and a half. If he keeps the pink until Stage 20, this is in the bag.
