It all depends

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Brits. They win one TdF and now they start all sorts of crazy threads.

 

[HiCadence]

I'm sorry but the proof is in the pudding. Look at the poll results.

ALL HAIL THE JTL.

Poll results. There was a time when most of the earth's population thought the world was flat.

Bet365 offer odds 67 on Tiernan-Locke as winner of the Words. Money in the bank seeing that Machado isn't starting.

Im seriously considering a substantial wager on him at those odds!

I mean I doubt he's going to be heavily marked so he should just attack 30km out and then solo to victory by like 10 mins. Simples.

 

[zalacain]

If he signs for $ky he won't win any GTs.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Should have added a 6 option.

 

[Havetts]

I go with the famous amount of 7.

 

[Frosty]

Just a case of how many he can fit in before Edmundsen takes over.

He'll be marked by any rider that's been reading this forum

If there's an option I miss in this poll is "Less than Vino"

Is there a Leeds back to Leeds race for his tier of racers?

When you say 'his tier of racers' you do mean, cycling GOATS? Yep?

But you could have a point, Leeds-Bradford-Leeds for cycling GOATs only could be a classic race. JTL head to head with Wilco Kelderman.

Been watching his performance in the ToB and reading this thread. Hes 27, so the same age as Chris Froome - but since he has had four years out the sport he is going to be a 'young 27' methinks.So he will probably go on/peak maybe 3 years after Froome.

Top sportspeople don't go downhill at 30 because they are 30, its because they have quite often had 10+ years of top level sport in their legs.

Don't try to over-analyse and come up with stupid conclusions, just go with the flow and let the river run...

Let's pump up the hype, once he goes to Sky, just imagine: JTL + MARGINAL GAINS.

They're gonna **** everyone for good.

Where is the sane option of zero in the poll?

I don't know if he will win any big races, but he sure looks good when he is out of the saddle.

This is a serious thread; if you want to talk nonsense just ****** off to Krebs' thread.
