And Froome beat Contador today by, what? 4 seconds? And a Contador that has admitted to being less than 100%? And what about Busche? Froome beat him by a massive 4 seconds also. Obviously doping.
I sense the clinic perspective is going out out of the window, even if it ever had any. No one says much about Nibali putting a whole minute into the rest of the field on a mountain time trial in the Giro, but 4 seconds today is enough to convict Froome? *shakes head*

thehog said:Be interesting when he wears yellow at the Tour how he'll handle the inevitable doping questions.
I actually don't know anyone who actually thinks he's clean.

Galic Ho said:Thanks for the laughs hog. That is good.
I don't know anyone either who thinks he is clean. Same goes for Wiggins.
After he beat Evans last year on the first mountain show down, his responses were laughable. This might be even funnier than Wiggins rants last year. Can't wait!

I see no evidence of any doping at sky. Until there is a good rumor going around like those about Mauro Santambrogio, or better still a link to a doping ring, I will presume they are innocent.

Here's a future GT winner in the making.
All GT winners give up their bikes and give a push to mid pack fodder like Henderson.

Check out time trial champion Chris 'the Dawg' Froome.

Galic Ho said:Good times. Back when Froome was a healthy weight and not a stick figure. Looks about 8-10 kilos heavier here than he is now.
Keep repeating in the mirror every night; "If I lose the kilos I will win the Tour. I don't need drugs!"
Miracles really do happen!
JRTinMA said:Walsh is a paid shill. I would hope he thinks he's clean.
Zero Tolerance said:You're calling David Walsh a paid shrill? Where's the respect? The man potentially sacrificed his career to bring down Lance Armstrong and save cycling. I trust his judgment. It rings true with my judgment. With his knowledge it would be very dangerous for a team to have him embedded with them. Sky look to be clean and he's courageous enough to admit it. He wasn't always sure, but now he seems to be - adding to his credibility.

maybe wiggins wants to direct.
he will next be an auteur of a snuff film of The Clinic 11
JRTinMA said:He did a nice thing bringing down LA. Then he sold out. Good for him I hope he gets paid. Just not credible anymore.
gooner said:I said that sarcastically in response to another poster who said Froome only beat Busche by 4 secs while obviously not knowing he was in the breakaway of the day.
