norwegian said:I think it is not unlikely that Andy will stand up to be a positive surprise in TdF this year, despite lacking results earlier in the season. And so could Frank. But still Cadel and Wiggins by far have the edge before the race is on.
And in 2010 Andy climbed about as well as Contador and dropped Evans like a rock on nearly every single mountain stage. What's your point?Franklin said:I knew you would fall for the trap called facts. It's always simple with guys like you
Stage 16 where Andy lost the TdF on the descent... he actually was dropped by Contador and Evans on the ascent.
What do you know... Andy losses time going uphill twice...
Want me to remind you how the brothers managed to gain absolutely nothing except suffering in the stage to Alpe d'Huez? I assume you had enough now....
LMAO.... facts are always a killer. Goodbye, nice of you to show that you don't watch cycling but just watch your heroes.

LaFlorecita said:His point? That Andy isn't light years ahead in terms of climbing like airstream claims.

Moose McKnuckles said:Seriously, now. Evans did the Giro that year.
airstream said:fact that Schleck did a montrous chunk of work on Izoard and in the valley? Evans did ride 8k alone and Andy didn't comfortably sit down behind Monfort's back and they changed each other at the front..
Moose McKnuckles said:Andy's proctologist found airstream.
element said:So Andy rode half a time trial and part of a road stage with a broken pelvis? I know his attitude towards racing sucks a lot of the time, but that is insane. People with pelvic fractures don't usually move.
DominicDecoco said:Leads us back to the Theo Bos's broken spine injury he rode with in the Giro. Obviously it not a comfortable injury but if they are riding with these kind of injuries they are not a as bad as you'd imagine them to be.

On his way on the Galibier last year.
GatorGene said:Samu may be a carrot, but he didn't pull his SchleckChute after his Dauphine crash. Is the difference in the extent of the injuries or in the mental fortitude?

Race director Christian Prudhomme looked forward to seeing him again after officially awarding him the 2010 yellow winner’s jersey on May 29.
“Maybe I’ll sell it before the Tour and make some money on eBay!” Schleck said with a smile. Prudhomme awarded Schleck the 2012 version of the yellow jersey, with the manufacturer Le Coq Sportif’s logos instead of Nike’s. “It’s the one they’ll use this year. I got the first one!”
LaFlorecita said:Very appropriate username.
Also, Andy, that guy is named Alberto, not "Contador"!
airstream said:Flair says me Alberto will be left holding the bag. Andy will own the Vuelta at the expense of his climber magnificence or the edge to put it more prosaically. I'd prefer the Tour annihilation, but nothing can be done - under the circumstances Andy has to be satisfied with the Vuelta this year.
Ha ha! Sweet dreams. Since your dream for the tour has been crushed you need to develop another illusion to satisfy youself![]()
