LOL ... maybe he will improve even more and be able to beat Cav in tomorrows moutain stage.Beating Roglic and Thomas on the line in a tough mountain stage. Improvement is visible.
so after one week kudos for Froome for being in a very respectable 166th position behind former GC contenders like Mark Cavendish and Andre Greipel. Definitely an improvement, who knows what he can do on the next Vuelta, perhaps Taxus might enlighten us.
He cant show improvement with tha injuries and with rain, and helping the team as we see some stages in front of the peloton...But,l think that is so far. Becouse after the rest day i hope a new Tour for him. He could be in condition to show the level he got to race this Tour...a level not to get a top ten of GC, but maybe to be in the top ten at some stage.He can't show improvement, he crashed on second stage. And i'm not saying that froome would show some improvements if he didn't crash, i don't bet on it. But he even didn't have that oportunity of show something because of the crash.
Yep I saw that and he referred to instagram stories I think, whatever the hell that is ?Does anyone know what happened to Froome on Sunday? He mentioned something about bad luck, needing help and posting on his instagram story.
Cav is your and Froome's friend:He cant show improvement with tha injuries and with rain, and helping the team as we see some stages in front of the peloton...But,l think that is so far. Becouse after the rest day i hope a new Tour for him.

Maybe one of the discs was dragging on the first 9 stages.Looks like he's received his Factor rim-brake bike. Stage win incoming
I'm a big fan of froome, but c'mom man, you are trolling right?He was protecting Woods in the 30th position of the peloton till chalet Reynard.. After that he lost time, but anyway is his first top 100...a pity his crash.

In what way, the recovery from injury and narrative around it ?It feels like a Wonderlance level deep fake.
No, but nevermind, it's well off topic. Back to Froomey!In what way, the recovery from injury and narrative around it ?
You cant compare current level of Froome with any Ineos rider. Thomas is doing a great job for the team.Have to admit, I've joined in with some of the joking around Froome and a couple of my comments have probably been a bit mean-spirited given his current state. But the ISN road-captain has survived longer in the race than the Ineos road-captain, so I guess that's something. Credit to the guy, it's been a tough tour and I thought he was gone after that hard crash early in the race.
But I'll leave the more fulsome praise to Taxus as he does a better job.
That's Poe's law (or rather the opposite) for you. I'm sure he's sincere.It feels like a Wonderlance level deep fake.
