It is hard to imagine a more determined sportsman. In recent times, he [Frodo] has become friendly with Lance Armstrong – they met in Las Vegas last September through Cavendish's Columbia-Highroad team-mate George Hincapie and "The Boss" tweeted "cool kid" after his San Remo win.
this guy is now coached by Oliver, son of UCI president Brian Cookson.
No irony there at all. We're not at all being taken for fools. Pssshh. Nahh.

Chavanel wasn't buddies with Lance/Hincapie/Scinto and isn't DS-ed by Cookson.pastronef said:I guess Chavanel who got a pat on the back from Lance on Luz Ardiden 2003 is in your black book since then, no?

Fergoose said:Also worth noting that Impey is not a safe comparison given his historic positive test. Totally inconclusive but I really did not like that. Cummings made it look so easy. Ageing and hurting from being rejected for Rio. The motivation to roll the dice may have been there.

Nibali and Navarro aren't exactly in top shape, considering they were beaten by Daryl Freakin' Impey.ontheroad said:That was utterly ridiculous from Cummings, transforming into a mountain goat at 35 and putting a lot of time into renowned climbers whilst riding solo up a Category 1 climb. It's alright though, he has an admirer in David Walsh!
Today was basically one big climb, not a traditional Tour De France mountain stage. Cummings is one of the many riders in the peloton that could handle the terrain, despite not being a mountain goat.ontheroad said:That was utterly ridiculous from Cummings, transforming into a mountain goat at 35 and putting a lot of time into renowned climbers whilst riding solo up a Category 1 climb.

''Got to admire how Steve Cummings targets stages and way he then goes for it. He's got 45sec lead on three chasers with circa 11km to finish.''
''Cummings wins on his own. Brilliant ride. Seven stages so far, four won by Team Dimension Data. Impey out sprinted Navarro for second.''

That moment you've got a stupid car driver right behind you, but for some reason he takes ages to overtake you, and you wish you had either a motor or a missile launcher.Irondan said:I put my thumbs in the same position every time I ride my bike, I wish there was a motor to switch on most of the time...CheckMyPecs said:All riders shall henceforth refrain from using their thumbs during races under penalty of being accused of mechanical doping.Tienus said:https://youtu.be/K02id-nOz_o?t=7m26s
