Teams & Riders Alberto Contador Discussion Thread

[portugal11]

There you go, Marcha 2014. Doesn't look that sharp from this angle. One picture doesn' t mean anything.

In this pic, you see muscle!!!

 

[portugal11]

I think his dauphine's team will be his tour team, plus sagan and majka.
I want to see him attack on col de madeleine

The classic and incomparable Contador-hysteria up to a big race. Keep it coming guys

Re: Re:

Maybe he stayed with them for 100km, how can you judge from a photo

So what? If he's charging them €25-45, he should have stayed with them ALL THE TIME.

Part of the fascination of taking parts in such events as an amateur/normal cyclist is to really get to know the difference between pros and normal folks. Some riders will take it as an opportunity to test how long they can stay with Alberto. I don't see the problem.

No worries, he looks great

"Your images may only be up to 1200 pixels wide" and I'm lazy so a link instead
You can see his leg muscle through his shorts

Here if you look closely you can see some muscle definition as well

I read that he "won" usually he withdraws at some point doesnt he ?

Re: Re:

Maybe those people want to see Alberto push on the climbs so they can see how long they can hang on. How can you judge?

Can you imagine Taylor Swift going backstage for drinks during a concert and telling fans to keep singing her songs on their own? No way.

That's a really bad analogy, completely off. Cycling isn't Alberto's, and I would love it if I could ride with him and see him go off into the distance, before catching up with him at the end (when it's over).

Who goes to Taylor Swift concerts anyway? Her vocal range is like an octave, and her songwriting range even smaller.

Well, carnage incoming then

Vino can say whatever he wants, Nibali will be left for dead on the 1st climb lol.

You're not really smart blurry, you should pray that vino is right. A great nibali (and Aru) is only good for Contador.

If Contador is in top form, he's not gonna need anyone.

But you're right in a sense

Kruiswick and Alberto-Froome 2014 said hi

 

[Miburo]

Maybe Nibali can use that vodoo *** from him to eliminate quintana and froome

That was a joke duh, some will take that seriously xD

I like it, it just speaks volumes about that the Contador-fanbase, at least on CN, by far is the most passionated. Sometimes you overdo it, but safe to say, I look forward to Dauphine as well - maybe not QUITE as much as some guys in here, tho, starting the countdown when the final Giro-stages were on their way

Looks in excellent shape to me !!!.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Just to clarify, when people say "Contador looks fat" they mean he is starting to resemble a normal human being, right?

I'd give Contador a 5 on the Rasmussen Emaciation Scale.

It's a disaster. He can't even drop a bunch of cyclotourists.
Everyone PANIC!

 

[matusow_m]

Think noone will be able to handle Contador this tour and also this years Critérium du Dauphiné. He have the luxury again to peak for one race and I just cant see anyone beeing able to beat him unless he crash. Quintana seems better this year so he might put up a fight, doubt Froome have much to say.

And he's gasping for air. He won't even finish top 20 in the Tour

Great. Now British Skeletor is going to win again.
