Who has a better deal, I wonder?
Thank you!
Man how I miss those two. Schleck was my childhood hero from cycling and I've never been more invested in the battle for the TdF win than when those two were fighting for it. Certainly wasn't enjoying the outcomes from back then but I'm still looking back at those tours with a lot of nostalgia.
Looks soft to me.Now that's a real murito! I assume Javier Guillén will include it in the Vuelta one day.
Has this thread really not been bumped on his 40th birthday? Okay, I guess it has now.
How much does he currently weigh?
I had a similar situation. And I almost pooped my pants because of that soundJust read an account of his experience riding on tubeless. He tells how one of his tires burst out due to a combination of excess pressure and heat. He learned later he had inflated them at 1bar over the recommended pressure and they were also incompatible with his rims. He was lucky it happened during a stop at a bar, but the guys at the next table thought someone had shot a gun and they got down on the floor.
It was as amazing as a good game at SlotEire. Personally, I like spending time there.

Contador recuerda el susto de muerte que se llevó por culpa del tubeless
Alberto Contador narró una anécdota que le pasó por un error al usar la tecnología tubeless que cada día está más de moda entre todos los corredores. “El mercado nos está llevando al tubeless, yo tengo que decir que lo llevo usando un poquidiariodeltriatlon.es
In 2016 the coverage didn't start until after Peille, unfortunately. There's a poor video on youtube from the start of Èze to the finish:Im searching for a full brodcast from the last stage of paris nice 2016 and 2017. I havent found anything on youtube. Do you know where ican find it.
Preferably with English commentators.
Im a huge fan an this two stages were some of the greatest races in his whole career i think.
I would really like to watch it again.
Indeed! The panache and talent of the man. But 2nd place is not good. A great spectacle but he didn't gain enoughWhy would anyone want to live through that again?
I'm pretty sure the scene you're talking about is in the documentary 'The Armstrong Lie'. It does indeed show Bruyneel getting angry in the team car when Contador attacks with the Schlecks. It's currently available on Netflix (at least, in my territory). I couldn't find the scene on YouTube, but a snippet about the Verbier stage is online:I've been struggling to find youtube video(s) showing some internal commincation within the Astana team during TdF2009. During the stage 17 Johann Bruynell is seen in the team car trying to persuade Contador not to attack and then getting really angry after Contador did attack.
I think it was (they were) videos with comments showing how Armstrong and Bruynell tried to prevent Contador from winning teh TdF.
Does anyone have a link to that/those?
thanks a lot
ah, ok, thanks, so it was a teaser or a trailer I saw probably. I'll check it out.I'm pretty sure the scene you're talking about is in the documentary 'The Armstrong Lie'.
