Finish bottles......................Dear Wiggo said:A marginal gain for Garmin would seem to be the the ability to stay upright.
Apparently not.Dear Wiggo said:no, you have to ride 4km quick on the track before you are allowed to win 3000km races.
apparently.
The point, obvious to most, is that Sky fans telling us Wiggins showed his talent with gold medals from 4k on track and that means he has shown his potential and can win GTs clean! But no one else has gone this route for a long time, if at all.....Wallace and Gromit said:Apparently not.
Last time I checked there was only one current rider who has won a 3000km race who has also ridden a fast 4k on the track.
That leaves every other active rider who's won a 3000km race without having ridden a fast 4k on the track. By your logic this should not be allowed, but it is allowed, so your logic is wrong.
So just what point were you trying to make?
The very point you made.Wallace and Gromit said:Apparently not.

I fully appreciate the implications of Wiggo's transformation from trackie to Tour winner, how unusual it is etc.Dear Wiggo said:The very point you made.
Apparently not.Dear Wiggo said:No Second coming of Christ jibes this time?
Indeed, but there haven't been that many IPers since the sport went open (early 90s) who have been so clearly and consistently better than their rivals. An average trackie is no more likely to win on the road in major races than an average roadie.Benotti69 said:The point, obvious to most, is that Sky fans telling us Wiggins showed his talent with gold medals from 4k on track and that means he has shown his potential and can win GTs clean!

I did have a laugh today at Talansky, taking on the Dawg.Benotti69 said:Hey Vaughters! What happend to cycling being slower? Froome, Porte, Contador, Piti et al didn't get your message obviously!
Your silence on the current crop is deafening.
Also good to see Froome's refined tactics really shining throughthehog said:I did have a laugh today at Talansky, taking on the Dawg.
Good on the Dawg for chasing down every attack, attacking himself, leading and then winning the sprint.
Fairly normal.
You should take a look at Shane Stokes twitter today. Fun read.Benotti69 said:Hey Vaughters! What happend to cycling being slower? Froome, Porte, Contador, Piti et al didn't get your message obviously!

Yeah. "When you take the average speed of the top 20 guys, it's still not THAT fast". Haha, seriously.the sceptic said:You should take a look at Shane Stokes twitter today. Fun read.
Impressive. JV attempts to "school" and Stokes right back at him with his degree in exercise physiology.the sceptic said:You should take a look at Shane Stokes twitter today. Fun read.
Still can't believe that Vaughters is allowed in the sport.Benotti69 said:Vaughters cant answer a simple question. Tells you all you need to know about the sport and Vaughters.
Vaughters is pointed to as the reason for change. He is the knight in shining armor who declares the sport is much cleanER as clean riders can win,BYOP88 said:Still can't believe that Vaughters is allowed in the sport.
his blood levels did not rise benotti, it is just the measuring instrument was not calibrated correctlyBenotti69 said:Vaughters is pointed to as the reason for change. He is the knight is shining armor who declares the sport is much cleanER as clean riders can win,
ie Hesjedal, "what" i hear you say, "not Hesjeald that admitted to doping and whose blood levels rose in the 3rd week of a GT that he won?"
Yes that Hesjedal!
Snakeoil salesman of the year JV.
want a laugh, read Vaughters twitter, he is a real twit and that is being over nice to the guy.blackcat said:his blood levels did not rise benotti, it is just the measuring instrument was not calibrated correctly
come on benotti you know this
<i wish i could sound/read more patronizing in authentically patronizing manner, much like jv73>
So that is Wiggins, Froome and Hesjedal who discovered themselvesLeMond Eurosport said:" That is historically in cycling, the true talent is there at 19, 20, you don't come up at 29 years old, you don't come up at 30, that's what was happening the last 20 years, guys would all of a sudden discover themselves. It doesn't happen."

Wonder what JV thinks of LeMond's ideas......

2 from Slipstream.............Garmin clean, pull the other one.
Was it all deleted? I can't see anything?the sceptic said:You should take a look at Shane Stokes twitter today. Fun read.
Hmmm. I just checked both their twitter feeds and found only a few posts at all for today, which in-and-of itself would be "not normal." And nothing to do with the above mentioned discussion.The Hitch said:Was it all deleted? I can't see anything?
Edit: Now i see it.
Wow, JV getting quite personal there for no reason.
I found it under a - "tweets and replies" button at the top of their tweets list.Granville57 said:Hmmm. I just checked both their twitter feeds and found only a few posts at all for today, which in-and-of itself would be "not normal." And nothing to do with the above mentioned discussion.
So is it hiding somewhere?
(The new twitter is abysmal, in case the world cares about my opinions.)
