It's gonna have to be some serious pain before he gives up.

Little pain won't do it, besides on the bike it should be better than walking.

He still might be lying about it, to give his opponents a false impression. Small chance but possible

Not so simple I'd say. No one doubts Contador's a fighter, but letting it reach higher pain symptoms is not wise and he knows that. It may compromise the rest of his season. He has nothing to prove, it would be stupid.

I think it was humor though... And pretty decent too.

What about the post of this guy saying Contador is a coward and then a sec later Contador attacks from 40 km out.

That should be nominated too ;)

They are actually waiting for bananito. He was reported to drop at the beginning of the climb after the race commissaires witnessed him being pushed from the team car with the excuse of a fake mechanical assistance.

Sagan dropping ! :eek:

maybe he wants to be underdog for the worlds :)

but seriously, clearly he's in the training mode and he will be trying something in the second, or if he doesn't withdraw(which might not happen if he rides two weeks in training mode), then in third week he will want to test his form for world, and also it might very easily happen he will not get into the form till the end of year

tells you I can't predict the future. I wonder how many people can. I know it's hilarious to see that happen though

You didn't attempt to predict the future. You made a ridiculous conclusion, that was my point.

Chapeau for Orica managing to do 100% of the work when they don't have the jersey or the stage favourite, by the way.

I'd say that Bling has a chance today, if he makes it they can also have the red jersey. I'm sure that's the main reason they worked.
