What does the climb Page 377 say?

Nothing much. Froome was pleased to see Impey in the yellow jersey. Impey introduced Froome to Michelle, Daryl made him welcome on the South African cycling scene, nothing of interest.

I know the book has been ripped apart here, but is it actually worth a read?

It's worth a read but I wouldn't recommend paying for it. It's full of half truths and out and out lies so it's an interesting look into Froome's character.

Okay will wait for it to hit the remaindered book shops. I've got quite a collection of books on cycling, including obviously Voet's, sadly I think the latter is a censored English version.

Froome is clean, never tested positive.

Amigos dirty. Switch bikes, used banned lube and don't train hard enough and resort to doping.

Froome is cleans, couldn't be any cleaner.

Autofocus seems broken?

Some of this "artsy cinematography" techniques when used improperly (overdone the past few years actually by every wannabee) really ruins a possibly nice piece of work.

Agree. Blame Adobe & Final Cut Pro.

Just so you know the Dawg has had a film crew with him since late last year and will be releasing a film later this year. All the drama with Kimmage, Wiggins, Cound on Twitter, off Twitter has been micro managed & staged.

Can't wait :rolleyes:

It's very true. Look at the cobble recon. Porte & Co. had to drop back so the film crew could film the Dawg in full recon mode.

So when you know all that you know everything else is but a show.

Yeah sarcasm needs a winkie innit.

Agreed - POV and shaky cam, now this misfiring autofocus is gimmicky.

with digital every DP and director fancies himself as melick and will no doubt create a monstrosity in anamorphic/cinemascope, sun spot smudge focus every wannabe director who has a 90sec TVC to shoot (before it will be cut for tv), will use melick to sell us
