Zubeldia's back

 

[virandociclista]

After TDf.. All the teams Will put powermeter in his rides bikes!! Do intervalls training instead of only riding all the day like most of the pro do!

Sky school!

 

[FellOff]

Bradley in the Sky with diamonds

 

[its like that]

Now it is just a question of whether Sky wants the stage win or not

 

[Roude Leiw]

Sky could drop Cadel right now, but they don't want to raise eyebrows above people's hairlines.

why shouldn't they? you have the fans of the swim coaches and those discussing this on another subforum...
jalabert on french tv is clearly fed up by the show given and speaks only thinly veiled like someone posting in said subforum

Sky school!

Or hire swimming coaches

 

[Forunculo]

Even better than US postal. Cadel is at high risk

 

[Bala Verde]

Do you only enjoy sprint stages and not mountain stages where the stronger riders can prevail?

Lol whut

 

[goggalor]

Wiggins and Froome must find this hilarious. They didn't even have to gear up, just sat there spinning at 110 RPM instead of 100 as Evans was all over his bike, being brought back by friggin Mick Rogers.

 

[Gloin22]

Seriously though, the fact that Pinot is still there, but so many others not.. It really seems like it isn't only Sky that's strong, but the others are weak. Some from crashes, and some from other things. Sucks for the excitement.

Tejay dropping Evans ?

Zubeldia rejoining ?

*facepalm* I don't want to burst your bubble. But I have to. Nearly all of the GC riders already do training like that. Actually Sky have copied it from others. They only perfectionized it.

But lots of pro's already train with powermeters and with intervals
Don't try to sound like Sky invented the light, mr july watcher

Bradley in the Sky with diamonds

I had a good laugh at this Thanks for cheering me up

 

[vcampbell]

Porte dropped!





To bring bottles to the front.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

Sky have enough mountain "domestiques" for one of them to till be on bottle duty

 

[Warhawk]

I wonder how far behind Rein is. Pinot and Tejay could be gaining a good bit of time here.

They need to make it semi-believable

 

[maxmartin]

Now it is just a question of whether Sky wants the stage win or not

they probably still get it, the main objective is to put time into other people to secure overall, if they catch the breakaway, so be it

 

[rxgqgxnyfz]

Wow, Kes!....

The sound of clutching straws…

 

[burning]

Kiserlovski is sprinting like a mad man

 

[Montanus]

Porte human!

 

[woodburn]

Rolland with the elbow.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Nice work, Kess.

Sounds more like sour grapes - maybe the French could learn the lessons of other teams and they might their own race again some day

 

[goggalor]

I hope Sky go all out on the rest of the stage, and distance the others by five minutes. And then announce it's Wiggins vs. Froome for the rest of le Tour. Then we'll have a race
