Froome and Wiggo to take beer in their water bottles from Sean Yates and then take off at full speed up a HC climb, forgetting that there is a downhill afterwards. They make it down, but not before leading Nibali off on a goat path and sending two motorcycles off the road. Yates to undergo a DUI test at the summit and to be led away by the gendarmes.
The elder seen stealing water (beer) bottles from Froome. Knees tries to take him on before Jens decides he's seen enough and punches him in the head, causing the rest of Rabobank to crash out.
Meanwhile at the bottom of the next climb, Froome is sure he keeps on hearing 'attack' on his radio, so he attacks Wiggo and the rest of the peloton, but really its only Yates swearing profusely when he realizes what he did. Vino hears 'attack Borat' when riding besides Froome, takes it personally and does a Cato half the way up the hill. Froome next seen on a 1982 Raleigh Steel Frame touring bike in the groupetto, riding like he's undergone a physical prostrate examination.

I'm with you. Like most Germans, I felt the same about Erik Zabel for many years. The guy had his little son with him on the podium, and never declined an interview. Ever watched "Hell on Wheels"? Look it up on youtube. These aren't bad people. They are merely dopers.
Watching Team Sky 2012 feels a lot like Team Telekom 1996, with Riis and Ulrich 1 and 2. Totally incredible.

but he used to be part of Cav's lead-out train
when they were both at HTC...and his speed
at the end of todays race pales in comparison to
when he was setting World, Olympic (and of course
Commonwealth
) records on the tr@ck.

Uhm kay? I'd be curious to know exactly which year Mark Cavendish was with Garmin. Was it while he was riding for T-Mobile or when he was on HTC?

I saw my next door neighbour with an axe once. Just by looking at him, definitely a murderer. I don't need evidence, just the look he gave was enough plus he called me a nasty 'C' word.
I tell you what, as someone has previously suggested, why don't you contact the UCI and let them they know you can spot dopers a mile off no evidence required to convict. All you need is a room and a TV set (make it HD for extra clarity). That'll save the UCI millions. Keep up the good work!

Ah ok so Bernard Hinault and his whole team were doping in 1981. Bloody knew it, surprised it took so long for this to come out. Thanks for telling me thehog, guess that youtube vid of the 1981 Tour was all you needed to see! So pre EPO use they were still able to hold the jersey for days on end. Not even Lance and USPS could manage that..bloody Hinault!!!
xcleigh said:
Your argument depends on the Wigo=Hinault comparison?
That's beyond ridiculous even if we assume the whole peloton decided to become clean with Wiggins...

Oops yes I slipped up there...obviously I meant HTC-Low RoadHugh Januss said:
...but can you blame me for accidentally hooking up the most
evil riders (Wiggo and his Sky team mate Cav) with the even
more evil Johnnie V? Come on, that is a match made in heaven
(or hell if you believe in such a place) and I guess it was just me
momentarily fantasizing about the wonderful evilness of it all.
Please forgive me.

It'll be a great stage today, because Chris Froome is going to honour the Tour legends by attacking ferociously on the Mur de Péguère, gap the rest of the favourites considerably, then sit up at the top, have an icecream and wait for the rest to accompany him down the descent, just for the sake of it.
Wiggo, probably full of anger, will respond to Froome's demonstration by jumping solo to the breakaway and beating Sandy Casar in the sprint.

Actually, since Millar said in an interview just the other day that he would work for Wiggins in this Tour if Wiggins was isolated and he could help, I think you can regard all the Brits as being on a single team

and Miller would be in the same group as Wiggins? Thanks Dave.
