Let's not forget Majka. Acting like a 10 year old during his victories in the tour of 2014 and a pussy when he's riding for GC.

Poels his style annoys me way more than Froomes, it's so *** ugly to see Poels ride a bike

Laurent Jalibert (Don't need to explain too much do i, if not look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uL2HqyhJxw4


Aru: Just seems like one from others riders' interviews, look at what Greg Henderson had to say about him.

So you don't like Jalabert because of his unfounded allegationons on Froome but at the same time you dislike Aru because of Greg Handerson's unfounded allegations? :eek:


Gregs comments were wrong on every level! But he isn't the lead pundit on the home nations tv channel influencing millions.
He also said in interviews that Aru is disrespectful and a idiot in the peleton

Let's have valid reasons other than riders winning (and being on Sky) or their style not being attractive.

Warren Barguil for taking Thomas out?

How could i forget Wiggins is perfect for this.

How is that not a valid reason? I watch cycling to be entertained, not to have my eyes poked out.

It's not something they can help is it. Grow up! Even if i agree it's not the best to watch. Berty is far better, but this debate is more on things they have done, not how they look.

Froome for trying to appear morally superior every time he gets the chance. And because he looks ugly on the bike and always waits for the final climb to attack. He's no Nibali or Contador. He's also crap in one-day races.

Valverde because he's happy with second or third places and isn't willing to risk his podium place for a win... Often wheelsucks as well. He's no Nibali or Contador...

When was the last time Froome actually needed to make up time and was actually still in the race? There's no point attacking with 80km to go if you're already leading. Instead, Froome is more than happy to attack despite being in the race lead and not needing to attack.

And as he showed in Romandie, he's not afraid to attack from far out.
he had a couple of vuelta's in which he should've attacked from far out but didn't do so

In the 2011 Vuelta, by the time he got leadership, it was too late. Only Pena cabarga was left.
In the 2012 Vuelta, he was way too tired after the first week.
But yeah, in the final week of the 2014 Vuelta, Contador or Nibali would have tried something. Froome preferred to lift himself onto the podium which is surprising considering he already had a 2nd place to his name.

And you can't help disliking it, everyone can decided for each own what they like and dislike about someone.

If you haven't learned that yet then you're the one who is gonna have to grow up. That's the world.

How can you dislike nibali or Aru? If your argument isn't a clinic one.

Without these 2 guys, 50% of the races are boring as ****. Be grateful they exist.

Nibali is a complete and utter tool. I enjoy watching him on a bike but if it wasn't for his entertaining style, he'd be up there with Kennaugh and Bouhanni for me.

That wasn't Barguils fault, he touched wheels with TvG then wobbled into Thomas

1. G. Thomas
2. Mauke Bollema
3. Laurens ten Dam
4. Chris Anker Sørensen
5. Cavendish
a very good list, although I'd add froome to it as number 1 for his ugly style on the bike alone. zakarin for that same reason could be added to but at least he's less of a douche
I completely forgot Majka, he is probably #1. I don't dislike Froome, nor do I like him. I think he is a fun guy to watch on the first MTF or when he has to make up time

Kennaugh is a good one, what a *** douche. If i ever see him irl and if i had the build of the Rock i would punch all his teeth out.

Just a way of expression of course (relax mods)

Yeah it's a bit harsh to say he did it on purpose.


Easily Kennaugh for me. Or whoever the TSP is.
