Re:

I thought it couldn't get more outrageous, but the worst, me thinks, is still to come in the Alps.

When the 3 of them ride away from everyone? Alp d'Huez.

 

[jalep]

G. Thomas can definitely win TdF next year.

[Enrico Gimondi]

this is unbelievable to watch. Thomas pulls back every attack like its nothing.

 

[ScienceIsCool]

It'd be a lot more fun if Thomas made motorcycle noises with his mouth as he chases down the attacks. And changes pitch when he shifts gears.

[SeriousSam]

Please tell me what they've done to Thomas. Is this really the same rider who was the favourite for the Ronde?

 

[zlev11]

makes it even worse that it completely ruins the race. at least Ricco had fun, these guys just suck all the joy anyone that isn't a British fanboy could have while watching the race. terrible.

 

[Sasquatch]

lol Ricco

Ricco needs to come back and Sky need to sign him. He'll bring some personality into their *** up team.

 

[Benotti69]

Gonna be fun in years to come finding out who was on what, how much and when............

 

[hfer07]

So now is officially announced to the world who's the next British rider set to win multiple Tours.

SKY is pleased to Introduce his new GT rider: "G"

 

[jellyfisher]

Thomas is giving away the game here. I'd like to hear what Quintana is saying about Team Sky.

Only if Froome targets the Giro.

Froome will not be allowed to win anymore TdFs with Sky.

Re: Sky

I wonder if Brah man's heart rate went above 160?

His VO2 must be 90 today.

I'm somewhat of a casual cycling fan, but Geraint Thomas is the most egregious doper I have seen in close to a decade. It's just absurd. I'm kinda curious as to their doping methods.

 

[Franklin]

Epo, Hgh, perhaps Aicar.

Nothing revolutionary.

Re:

Ketones?

CIRC report said something about some riders taking up to 30 pills a day during GTs.

 

[Franklin]

Ketones aren't doping (and I doubt they will become doping), however it's not completely certain they do use it.

But even if they do I'd say it's the bloodcharging and hormones that make the large impact. I'm a cynical guy, I don't think tests do much more than define the margins.

Interesting, but not sure how he's more egregious than Froome. At least he had a track/pursuit palmares before he became a world-beating climber at the tender age of 29.

I mean, that's a joke, and ridiculous. But it' something those who want to believe can point to.

 

[JackRabbitSlims]

i thought he was just going to pull them all the way to the line
