Looks like Jesus and Sergio will not ride the Tour, so that frees 2 valuable spotsMiburo said:He has the best team in the giro, you don't have to worry about that at least fleur![]()

Ruta del Sol - HazallanasCarols said:Basso better show more then he has so far!
He’s been really strong, practically all the races he’s been in he’s either won them or come close. He’s in good shape, he’s really motivated and focused on the Giro. He’s going to be hard to be beat
SeriousSam said:Unlike many of his fans, which shall go unnamed, Contador appears to take Big Richie's recent display of sheer power very seriously

IIRC, he said something similiar before the 2013 Tour about Froome when he was also confident in himself. Take from that what you will!

Besides Contador says about everyone that they are tough to beat..Miburo said:SeriousSam said:Unlike many of his fans, which shall go unnamed, Contador appears to take Big Richie's recent display of sheer power very seriously

Give me one interview of contador where he said he's gonna crush everyone in a race. Just one, yea![]()
Carols said:Holy Smokes this was kept under wraps:
"The one hiccup, a micro-fissure in the sacrum – a minute but painful crack in a bone in the lower back, caused by the crash in the closing kilometres of the second last stage of the Volta a Catalunya in late March – was discovered with a hospital visit a week after he started training in the Canaries"

He says he's where he wants to be so hopefully he will be ready in 10 days!

Rogers instead of Hernandez, rather.Jelantik said:i was hoping benna would be there instead of Rovyn? Isn't he the guy who got kicked out for fighting in the race? So the high climb will be basso, kreuziger and hernandez. Basso better bring it. If he and kreuziger can do a monster ride that would be enough for contador to fend of sky. Kreuziger has shown a good form already.

Very cool Kwibus !Kwibus said:Rode up mt.Teide today (with a car !) for the view etc. We were at a parking taking some pictures halfway up mt.teide and just after we left the parking I noticed some fluo yellow and indeed Alberto and his teammates flashed passed us as they went downhill. I really didn't expect to see them. Plenty of roads on mt.teide afterall.
When we went back I had some hope to see them again and indeed.... Just after we left a parking for some view photos they passed us again. So my brother managed to make a decent drive by shot of them.
Incredible that both times they passed us we had just left the parking else I could've taken some proper photos and maybe yell something at them like "go leash the dog in july!"![]()
I'll post the pic when im back home. It's nothing special afterall, besides the fact that I made it....
Tossato passed us atleast 10 minutes after Contador, Rogers etc passed us. Poor guy!
Wish I could've wished Contador and his mates goodluck for the TdF and Giro, but i'm not the kind of guy that turns his car around for this. I mean they are just people as well and they allready have plenty of people harassing them
Also think I saw a sky rider, but not sure if that was a pro. Did see a lotto-nl rider though. He rode a bianchi as well, but no idea who it was. Who cares![]()
