You are probably most correct. Landa has only raced 10 days this year and is at Pantani 1987 levels. Dawg has raced very few days with little form but he will be motoring with Poels and Thomas Geraint.

I do hope they put Landa in the Tour squad. That would be full *** cycling like we've never seen before :)

Landa the leadout man.

Agreed, without a TTT this year, Landa will open up the sprint at the base of Ventoux and let Froome attack with 1km to go. It will be a 1-2-3-4 with Froome, Thomas, Poels and Landa will decide to keep riding and get 4th.

Should be fun to watch. What a spectacle! :rolleyes:

And the sales of colour coded bottles will explode!!!


Very true! :)

No other team has colour coded water bottles, it's not possible that anyone ever in the history of cycling thought to separate water from electrolyte drinks. Other riders are forever pouring sticking Gatorade on their heads. If only they had colour coded bottles or bottle tops... :rolleyes:

wonderful marginal gain by these guys. Imagine the time saved without having the wind drag on their bodies from the sugar in the Gatorade. Other teams are just fools at this game.

Oh that is ridiculous :eek:


Looks like today they got the colour coding mixed up. G most have got the correct colours ;)

Damn you Duracell.... ;)

Once they develop a new motor which is immune to thermal imagining the motor will come back, don't worry :rolleyes:

Thermal imagining - lol. Many a true word spoken in spellcheck

hilarious!
back in 2011 I came across 2 French teams when riding from Ghent to Oudenaarde the day after RvV. All friendly exchanges, etc... then back at the bus one of the soigneurs gave me 2 bidons - one had two little texta'd 'x's on the lid. This one had the energy drink (some horrid raspberry flavour), while the other was just water...

I see "Froomey" had a little bit of a wobble mixing it with the big boys in yesterday sprint.... Showed his pure class by staying upright (or more like knees out, elbows out in a non too graceful way to hang on for dear life)... How he has not been in a major spill is incredible!!

Why does this child look so pained? Is Dawg trying to write out a new chapter of Mein Climb on his autograph pad? Warn the boy of the evils of coffee? Or did the kid really just come here to meet Contador instead? :D
