Yes :D losing every time is not good for his confidence and it only makes Froome stronger and stronger because he knows he's on the right track. And yes I think it's a prescribed season.

So we will see Contador crushing the UCI African Tour soon :D

Regarding Froome: Seems like he proposed to his douchy GF, maybe wedding planning will detract him ;)

Froome has got a good engine but is a poor bike handler and suspect race nous IMO, very much second in that regards to Contador. Contador didn't look that good in the Vuelta last year but smashed it up on one stage when the race looked beyond him. Very early season, too early to predict what will happen in the GTs. The early skirmishes have gone to Froome, but then he had his nose bloodied by Nibali in turn.

I reckon Contador will have the measure of Froome come the tour. It's whether he and his team will have the measure of the Sky train.

In some race threads, I read the nickname "Froomedog" or sth like this.
What´s the reason for this? Does he have a dog´s face, sit on the bike like a dog, or own dogs at home?

His nutter wag said it on twitter. She was moaning about Wiggins and said that if anyone wants loyalty then they should get a Froomedog (who was dragging Wiggins through the mountains)

Google michelle cound and you should get the story somewhere
