    Poll on when to wait for the leader in a GT

    I'd vote for never !!! its 2017 if we don't wait for contenders on the down hill why wait at all anymore. Hoping Aru goes all LA on somebody during a breakdown and climbs like no tomorrow.

    Teams & Riders Alberto Contador Discussion Thread

    Re: Re: This is the smartest thing I've read on here today, Contador's done as a rider and he'll be lucky if Trek even offers him something like money to limp along at the back of the peloton next year. Aru has way more upside for the money to be paid out. I hope trek signs Are and shows...

    Froome stays in yellow, the right decision?

    I would agree with you Pete except the motorbike was stopped, so that statement as good as it sounds didn't happen. Cycling is exciting because the riders stay as close to the motorbike as possible ??? Thus proving my point, don't trail the motorbike so close, you won't run into the back and...

    Froome stays in yellow, the right decision?

    Well like a lot here I've given it some thought and I'm sure its been said here. I think the only changes that should have been made were to give Richie Porte the same time as Molleme and give Froome the time he got when he crossed the line, or DQ him for advancing without his bike. Froome...

    The 2016 CQ Ranking Manager Thread

    Maybe on point or maybe not, what is the number of new players, the numbers of players, and the experience of the players. All of these would affect the point total. Maybe a better measuring point would be the average score of all the players 2012 compared to this year. I'm not a numbers expert...

    Re: Re: Thanks Peter for bringing up Andy Schleck again, I had all but forgot him and the great pick I thought he was. Keep the points at 7,500 we're all playing with the same amount so it shouldn't matter.

    Nibali's sticky bottle

    What the hell was that, is he now the Tom Brady of cycling good riddance to him. I would have loved to see the faces of the guys he was riding with, and hear their response as he seemed to motor away from them, as if being pulled by a car.
