Yep - bolt all the doors and hammer large pieces of crooked wood across all the windows. How on earth did this happen?

Doping of course with a motor. :)

Froome is stong in tt , he is the 2nd best , but he is also the 2nd best in climbing and that's NOT VERY credible to say a soft thing

But for a rider so "strong" at time trials, seems a little weird that he hasn't ridden it since 2009, when he's been in the top 3 ITT riders for the last 5 years.

he planned his season differently this year. raced very little until June. he´ll add those 10 days from the Vuelta until the TT. and the parcours with the last climb is fine for him this year

You could say that makes sense, but he has ridden the World's Road Race in 2011, 2012,2013,2014 and the World TTT in 2013. So it's not like he's stopped racing after the Vuelta. So it's still strange that a guy who's is in the top 3 ITT-ers (for the last 5 years or so) has not ridden the ITT even though he has been present at the World Championships events.

Bradley Wiggins must be a reason ( 2014) And he did the ITT in 2013 too
Chris Froome and Sir Bradley Wiggins, again, kept apart for men's race while Lizzie Armitstead is named as women's team leader for world championships http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/othersports/cycling/11102239/Chris-Froome-and-David-Millar-make-Road-World-Championships-team-Sir-Bradley-Wiggins-eyes-time-trial.html

In the WC RR, do post what his finishing position each year was, please, I'm curious to see how hard he was racing...

He never finished the race, so a waste of a roster spot.

The point is though - its Sports PERSONALITY Of The Year

And Froome is lacking one !
Perharps you could look at in the dictionary , more than one definition for a word , but i imagine it's more fun for you


personality =
noun
1.the combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individual's distinctive character.
"she had a sunny personality that was very engaging"
synonyms: character, nature, disposition, temperament, make-up, persona, psyche, identity
"her cheerful and vibrant personality"

2. a celebrity or famous person.

NOPE !! He still doesnt qualify !!
