Teams & Riders Alberto Contador Discussion Thread

[Pennino]

I freaking want that kit. Or any fancy kit that has his logo or name on it. But for devil's sake it's not available.

Anyway, I'm fine with his retirement now. His legacy stands rock solid. Almost every day I take my bike and go for a four hour ride, bringing as much honour as possible to El Profeta. When the panache is nowhere to find, you'll have to recreate it yourself.

I haven't seen one bit of Flecha this entire Giro, is he on Eurosport UK? ES? And before the stage, after, ...?
I need to find a stream

 

[Red Rick]

Flecha looks so much like hide the pain Harold

He’s on uk Eurosport...tell you what, that’s some well mainted eyebrows, he’s paid good money for someone to shape them

Maybe his wife does it for him, I know I would

I can't believe I missed Berto looked for a stream but couldn't find one
I read something about him being a guest in Processo alla tappa, hope that's true

Damn Froome looks horrible in those glasses. Viviani for that matter as well.

they're well-groomed, the beard as well, but he's no Fuglsang

those are scars
he needs a hair transplant

 

[rick james]

As a guy with a beard, must say, that's a fine neck line..anyone with a beard will tell you how painful it is when you get it wrong

 

[Netserk]

He needs a shave.

Re:

I thought that Vincenzo Nibali was the one to make such judgment calls.

 

[Netserk]

Even Tom lets it sometimes get too long. Only a special breed of cyclists can wear a beard. I'm thinking Pantani.

Get outta here

Re: Re:

Indeed! He looks grand with a beard

 

[Scarponi]

Even though Froome beat him
A fair amount of the time , you just know deep down he is so glad that berto isn't around. Dealing with Tom D is an absolute laugh compared to top grade Contador or Quintana. Froome wouldn't have even raised a heart beat reacting to Tom

Geshcke owned the beard

Pretty sure Contador would've taken 5 minutes extra off Froome in the first 2 weeks and lost the 5 extra minutes by blowing himself up on Finestre.

 

[Scarponi]

Contador being there would have been a 10/10 giro. Two mental riders going from 80 out attacking each other hnnng

 

[VayaVayaVaya]

I dunno. I feel like if he had been here, he would have been the one who would have crashed early and lost time early, then he and Froome would have co-attacked on the Finestre and worked well together until Froome revealed his mutant powers and dropped Contador. But I learned to be fatalistic as a Contador fan in later years...

He should have raced with that beard.
