Great rides from Berto, Froomie, Nairo, and Kwia. Best man won, as usual.

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Nah this was all about Saxo's decision not to ride TT bikes on the final descent

This is exactly right.

 

[Kender]

Froome is super ***, including changing bike, he still won by that many seconds.

He won because Bertie didn't change bikes

 

[Red Rick]

Froome "I was trying to limit my losses", what a dumb comment, either way

Froome tiring?

 

[Fight.The.Power]

Getting pretty tired of hearing Froome saying

"I can't believe I have won"

 

[Aditya]

So from being overconfident of Froome putting atleast 2 mins to his rivals to just breezing past Purito by 9 seconds. How happy are the Dawg fans?

 

[b.broadhurst]

What will Froome say tonight to his team?

Tomorrow we ride to win on L'alpe

 

[LaFlorecita]

I am so ****ing ****ed off.

 

[BigMac]

Getting pretty tired of hearing Froome saying

"I can't believe I have won"

I know right, exactly what i stated, ****es one off.

 

[cycladianpirate]

I really don't think that today is a good one to get the BP up about Froome. Save it for the Alps. Contador had him until that last section. What were Saxo thinking?

 

[FoxxyBrown1111]

Froome to win the Tour with 5 stage wins? Unseen since Hinault, since Merckx?

Since Fignon in 1984
... and LA in 2000 (AFIR)

 

[go crazy]

Getting pretty tired of hearing Froome saying

"I can't believe I have won"

I know, right? Such phony humility.

The Rabo TT chicken curse

Froome is super ***, including changing bike, he still won by that many seconds.

please, changing bikes was the right choice on a power descent Purito was faster than Krueziger
Saxo change bikes Aero and gearing(yes heard Froome) and they get 1 +2

 

[Kender]

I am so ****ing ****ed off.

If contador had rode a road bike over the climbs and change bikes he would have won

 

[phanatic]

Andy beats Martin by 39 seconds.

 

[xrayvision]

Love it. Good Froome!

You a funny guy. You been bashing Contador and his results all your time here, and now you love an alien whos results is way more questionable than Contadors ever were... You haven´t learned anything about cycling the past 25 years huh.

 

[yespatterns]

Holy crap. That was ridiculous. There's got to be Chuck Norris-like joke in there somewhere ---- something along the lines of "When Dawg time trials, he doesn't need the helmet, the wind does". At least Ritchie Porte will have a bright nightlight this evening.

 

[brilleaben]

Andy beats Martin by 39 seconds.

New favorite for WC ITT.

 

[Bakhjulet]

One thing is certain, Froome didn't go as fast on the climbs like I thought he would. Maybe he is slowing down a tiny tiny bit.

 

[vecchias]

I want to hug Cadel.

 

[Cimber]

He won because Bertie didn't change bikes

yep (10 char)
