Well done Froomey and sky, as well as movistar. As for people who say this is impossible. I'm sorry you think everything in the human body is a known and measured scientific quantity.
Yes, " I am sorry you don't believe in miracles"
that's better believing in miracles than hurling bile which is occurs on here over thousands of pages for years. froome is making history beneath our very eyes and this history will never memotize haters and enviers. haters gonna hate. some of you guys would better meet with a beautiful girl and go the cinema instead of spending too much time on such low addiction as hate for the rider.

You see, this is the beauty of the CN forum..

-We have the PRR section for those who wish to enjoy the racing without the doping talk.

-And then we have the clinic for those who want to discuss the doping.

Since doping talk is prohibited in the PRR section, I think the clinic is in their right to discuss the doping and be sceptical without innuendo -clear or unclear that they should get a life and just enjoy the racing...

I think it's a fair deal that should go both ways..

If you have any complaints about a point raised in the clinic -you could argue against it, or if you see posts inappropriate/against the rules you could report it.

Cheers

Has this been discussed? Froome with a record. In fact, beating 1996 speed.
In 1996 there were 140kms and a harder climb between Soudet and the finish line. Not comparable. Both performances not normal, though.

And Hamilton had 130km to go of which he soloed something like 90.

A rider dying on TV due to drugs wouldn't be able to clean up the sport. People would express shock and those in charge would say that controls need to be brought in etc etc. But at the end of the day, nothing would change riders would still risk taking dope because of the reward of winning.

Quite right. Riders died in the early days of EPO experimentation with not a peep out of Verbruggen. Prior to that the federations knew EPO was coming. Cycling was as slow as possible to address EPO and permitted it anyway.

The burden is on the federation to limit doping and the federation is okay with doping.

Froome strong not happy, some fan had thrown some urine, in a cup at him. **** thing to do, but fan must not like him taking the piss out of cycling, due to his Alien like performances .

Hmm, but fan is disingenuous because he did not bring enough urine for the entire peloton.

Someone just threw a cup of urine over Froome and shouted dope towards him.

This has gone way too far altogether. Too toxic.

I can't wait for this Tour to end.

lol that sprint at the end today. just too much raw energy


Plus he was just being a **** to show Quintana who's his daddy, real sportsmanship, that....

Froome's sprint was probably inspired by a spectator, who he said threw a cup of urine at him during the stage and called him a doper. I dunno; that would piss me off to no end. And what better way to take out the anger than throw down an end-of stage sprint.
