Contador's descending supremacy is just a myth.
He's already tried to distance Froome on the descents during the last Tour and it ended... Well, in a ditch.
This what we're watching at Tirreno is enough to presume that the Tour is going to be nothing alike the last year.
And there's also the tactics. The area where Froome has huge problems.
Stories about descending are needless.

contador is not an amazing downhiller, but froome is a really bad one. the thing is froome will never take back (time) contador in a downhil

Maybe you act agressive because you are so unsure about yourself.

Anyway, in short TTs, or prologues or what Kreziger has some great results.
Tomorrow is what matters. Peraud is maybe in shape of his life, Kreuziger is building for classics.

you call that aggressive? I guess you've never seen aggressive people. good for you

C'mon Ryo, no need for that and you know that well.

Nibali is by far the best descender of the GC riders, by far.

Stage 1 Tour of Belgium 2010 was 100+km, among other things ...

Evans at the Worlds or at the sb stage at the Tour of Italy

Rodriguez in Lombardy.

My reaction to the bold ones you mentioned:

First one was a breakaway, so Voeckler is probably the greatest cyclist of all time by your standards, I dont know why I'm bothered to reply, you are completely clueless about cycling.

It´s beyond me the Mods are doing nothing in here, this site is turning into the wild wild west, or more like a scene from the movie Psyco. It´s really beginning to be quite a pathetic reading with some folks here. Maybe it´s time to move on...

Only my inherent modesty prevents me from saying that I was right about Peraud anc Kreuziger. ;) or at least I wasn't wrong.
