Teams & Riders Alberto Contador Discussion Thread

[ILovecycling]

Alberto participated in El Partido por la ilusion, some football match organized by iker Casillas for his foundation I think

I hope there will be vids or maybe I don't

great,maybe bad mood from Casillas,Real is in trouble!

btw.Merry Christmas to all Alberto fans and non-Alberto fans

Yeah he probably won't visit Chicago



He did came to the U.S. but he went to California (California and Illinois are two different states/different locations in the U.S.)



No I don't believe he has visited Chicago before

Isn't SRAM headquarters in Chicago? It's a sponsor, so you never know.

I don't know where SRAM has its headquarters but I doubt he'll come to Chicago - his trip to the Specialized headquarters made more sense since they also sponsor him

Wiggins will ride Tirreno-Adriatico.

Alright, let the first of many ***-beatings begin

Contador better not change his mind and ride paris-nice

Oh Wiggo also rides algarve, normally Contador also does that. Damn Wiggins, this will be entertaining

 

[Carols]

Can hardly wait for TA Nice way for them to check out each other early and know what they each need to work on. I'm sure Wiggo will have the most work to do

I think Baby Schleck had TA on his schedule also, of course we won't expect anything like form from him that early in the season.

Maybe Alberto will that it easy on them and give them some false hope for the season ahead....

No Alberto rides Oman instead of algarve

Wow,Im really looking forward to it.Is there a route of this race?I hope at least for 2 mountain stages

"I think Baby Schleck had TA on his schedule also, of course we won't expect anything like form from him that early in the season."


Considering his program is as full as it possible can be in the spring, then its both a stupid and ignorant statement to make, perhaps check the facts first.

The guy is almost 27 yo, and you calling him baby Schleck...

 

[LaFlorecita]

Baby Schleck because he's the youngest of the brothers, the "baby brother"

And because he cries about descends

With Bertie and Sir Wiggo going to TA,Paris-Nice will have a weak field next year?

 

[The Hitch]

I think Froome is also doing TA. It will be interesting to see what TA course is like though. Hopefully it will be like last year though, - Contador for 3 stages

 

[serfla]

Is it confirmed that both, Wiggo and Froomey, will ride TA?
I don't think it's very likely.

If Andy comes to T/A on form and battling for the win I will Happily admit that the remark was 'stupid and ignorant'.

So feel free to remind me after T/A

Looks like it will be a great field in 2013 for T/A. Especially if the riders that usually ride it every season, all turn up as well. The last couple of editions have also been very good.

wasnt a question about if he would win or not, your statement said he would be totally out of form which is a bit crazy thing to say since he probably have the busiest spring program of them all, and starts the season already in January. No doubt he will be in form, question is if he can manage to reach his former level. The guy DID win LBL in 2009, so he knows what it takes.

Sorry about that. I for one would like to see Alberto, Wiggo, and Andy all on form and battling it out in TA; a preview of things to come. Toss the defending champ Nibali in there and maybe Evans and we could have a great race on our hands

One in which I fully expect Alberto will want to make a statement to all!!!

Go then to Schleck thread. Plenty of Contador talk there.
