It is not such unlickly that none of the big 4 starts at the Vuelta, since all of them plan to ride the Tour. Even if one of them starts after riding the Tour he will be not in top form and thus beatable (like Froome 2012). In this case Aru and Valverde will be the main favorites.

However it is still a kind of wishful thinking though. :)

Good pick- never thought he would do the Vuelta but he could. I'd preffer for him to race the Giro- he does well in cold weather and can ITT well. He could also get a podium.

Yup, same one, although I think Wiggins would do better. Why, am I not allowed to change my mind or do I need to ask you for permission to post my CURRENT thoughts?

Hard to pick the most stupid of his predictions. Phinney to win Roubaix :eek: Contador not to podium any GT :facepalm: As mentioned, Wiggo(/Froome) to win the Giro, and finally Talansky to get 2nd in the Vuelta...

So "stupid" that you learned my picks by heart? Do we all have to endure these pair of juvenile comments? :rolleyes:
 
Netserk said:
Hmmm, yeah maybe you should just delete your own posts. Thanks in advance. :)
I'm talking about your comments not predictions. They are just a fun game. They're just that. They will change as we approach the races.

It's uncanny that the most irrespectful members are those who were mods. They feel self entitled to bully, insult anyone anytime :eek:

Contador Giro
Froome TDF
Froome Vuelta

The Vuelta is the main one im not sure of, if Purito does the TDF as he says along with Valverde i think Froome can do it.

Tour de France option 1. Contador wins, ahead of Froome, Nibali or Quintana.

La Vuelta a Espana option 1. Contador has achieved the double and decides **** it i'll try.

During the Tour, Schleck whines about chaingate again

The only predictions that matter for 2015 are that AC will never ever win another tour de france, and his fans will never ever be able to reconnect with reality.

What will happen is that a debate starts wether he would've won hadden't he raced the Giro, which will go on for at least a year
