Pentacycle said:Well, Majka has beaten Contador on training races several times, so he has a decent base level. He's a young rider who has the potential to reach podium in GT's, and he already podiumed Il Lombardia. The fact that he's survived heavy injuries from first week crashes is more intriguing. Looks like he's still improving towards next week, let's keep an eye on him.
Bexon30 said:Am I right in thinking those training rides were last year and Alberto bettered him this year? Most exciting prospect at Saxo right now. If they sign Sagan then it'll be a team too full of stars.
Pentacycle said:This year Contador got the better of him, yes, so let's be patient with Majka. I wouldn't call him a star just yet. He's had his setbacks with injuries, let's hope Riis doesn't put too much pressure on him.
Dazed and Confused said:Laughable performance.
Netserk said:Hilarious how much better he is doing here than in the Giro.
Liquigas said:Climbing at the speed of the Tour de France leader coming out of the Giro being average there...
Very normal.

i hope for polish cycling that majka doesn't get popped.

sniper said:the way he dropped a ferrari client in the final two km was impressive.
Le Baroudeur said:And where did he finish yesterday?
What part of the freedom of a grimpeur not in contention in GC and without a leader to support is so perplexing? If he was putting in consistent performances like MiniLance or MaxiLance out of nowhere, and well before their development would suggest possible I'd be the first to raise a brow.
Netserk said:And where in the Giro did he do a performance like he did on Chamrousse?
Which he had for the whole Giro?Le Baroudeur said:And what about his condition in the Giro are you conveniently forgetting?
