Sky can give him another PowerPoint presentation. All will be fine.

I support Sky how is that being a troll
LaFlorecita said:Porte should be banned for what he said about Quintana.
The Hitch said:I can wait.
So this is what the defence of sky has been reduced to?
Any explanations for why Froome rode as fast as Armstrong?
or just haters gonna hate? 500 tests. Losers don't know what its like to commit. sorry you can't believe in miracles. ETC.

Pescheux: my fear is that we'll have Wiggins, Froome, Porte 123 on Ax3Domaines. I guess this comes close.
The last tt was thrown in to spice up the Froome-Contador duel even more. I guess Froome-Porte will be the duel we'll be looking at.
Dutch ES commentator made a good point. 1-2 second year in a row he said. He said but that's not what sky's aiming for. They're aiming for tdf win for the next 30 years.
jilbiker said:That is my question. How can it be classified as natural? Has the human body evolved to superman ability? There are natural limits of the body. 10.49 by Florence Griffith-Joyner was ridiculous and no one has come even close to it. if tomorrow someone made 10.39 why won't I say that person is juiced?

Alphabet said:And Sky are throttling him.
What does that tell you? Contador's off the juice? Not a chance.
martinvickers said:You seriously think "hanging on for grim Death" Berti is on the 2009 sort of juice?
He's been pinged, he's one from a life ban, he's scared. He's dialled it way down, it's obvious.
whether he'll stick to that all the way to paris is another question.
lemoogle said:Great point,
I do in certain ways think that after a few decades a clean performance can beat a doped performance, clean performances have previously shown that they will gradually improve.
This blog actually posted something about when clean performances would surpass doping performances just before the stage yesterday
gthx_gthx_ said:Until then the human race has to match Froome's performance first.Then they'll be ready to match doped performances.
On the point you're trying to make though , I am not an expert on that subject , but I am not sure that clean performance will improve infinitely , there must some kind of limit at some point ?
WillemS said:Truth is that professional cycling is in dire straits at the moment. While some of the major teams have managed to find funding, Belkin springs to mind, it's not that easy to find sponsorship, both for teams and for races. Another big scandal, right here at the Tour, so closely following the Armstrong confessions, could hurt cycling bad and there's no organisation that doesn't know that.
Now is not the time to pull a Rasmussen, not without very solid evidence, evidence that is simply lacking at the moment. While Froome's performance itself is highly suspicious, it is not enough, especially with all those organisations claiming the controls are harder to beat nowadays. Busting someone without evidence is like confessing the controls are still useless, that's simply not an option for the ASO, UCI and most major national cycling organisation (they all claim times have changed).

skippy said:Surprised to find no comment on Richie's dismal day ? After yesterday's comments , thought i would find you guys going beserk ?
hrotha said:Hahahaha. The era when Froome's titles are safe is the new amount of times Armstrong was tested.

the sceptic said:But sky isnt obvious, youre "not sure" about them

froomey attacks prr section goes mad................what a farce
before froomey is banned someone should at least identify the issue

leinders is way too weak a taint team sky can't be held accountable for his indescretions at rabobank
