How was 2013 so perfect then?. He as crashed alot but some reports that he got took down today and remember he was took out the stage before the cobbles stage. Lets see what happens but he may have been took down in his last 2 GT's through no fault of his own.Vino attacks everyone said:bikehandling skills are the reason why he falls so often. Doubt there is another reason for his falling, to say Gesinks

The good thing for him is that he starts to get used to it, ignore the pain and outsprint his competition.Vino attacks everyone said:Im not saying that he doesn't know how to ride a bike...
This year I've been in 3 crashes because of other people around me ****ing up. The previous 2 year none. Atleast 2 of the accidents this year I could have avoided if I had the bikehandling skills to take corners shaper than what I do so I could have avoided the falling riders infront of me (I am lousy at cornering in relatively high speeds).
I don't mean that Froome can't sit on a bike, it is just that it so happens that he has been in situasions this year that he hasn't been able to get out of, and yes, I belive some of them can't JUST be blamed on other riders.
So this is how he pays back the peloton after they waited for him? Sorry, but no class. He's not making any friends.TANK91 said:Hail hail Sir Christopher Froome. Make this man a sir such a great fighter(yes im a fanboy).

We shall see.SeriousSam said:Frome will have the last laugh when his cheeky sprints result in the overall victory.
There you go, if it is a "bike race" then they should've taken advantage of him crashing, right?Afrank said:It's a bike race.
I remember hearing once a rider asked Cadel Evans why he sprinted at the finish. He said "I'm a bike racer."
Yes but they didn't did they, that's not Froome's fault. It's funny to read people on the race thread saying they should drill it up the climbs to drop Froome, but as soon as Froome fights back it's a different story.cineteq said:There you go, if it is a "bike race" then they should've taken advantage of him crashing, right?
I haven't seen any footage but, if the principal leaders waited for him and then they all recommenced racing...it's a race. Not much to whine about for fan or foe.Pricey_sky said:Yes but they didn't did they, that's not Froome's fault.

Very happy he's ok, he's now gained 4 seconds by being clever and alert, hope he keeps it up and we get a great race between the top guys.
Pretty much how I feel about it as well.Oldman said:I haven't seen any footage but, if the principal leaders waited for him and then they all recommenced racing...it's a race. Not much to whine about for fan or foe.
Yes completely agree.Oldman said:I haven't seen any footage but, if the principal leaders waited for him and then they all recommenced racing...it's a race. Not much to whine about for fan or foe.

Gesink on crashestheyoungest said:From Gesink's post stage comments: "in a corner, Froome was looking down and he just crashed". Nothing new there
Why does this guy think bad luck haunts him if he doesn't bother to look up the road?
