Tirreno - Adriatico Stage 4, Narni -> Prati Di Tivo, 173 kms (09/03/2013)

[Fearless Greg Lemond]

Wout Poels ****ing amazing

How many seconds he lost?

 

[El Pistolero]

Now Kwiatkowski is a great TTer isn't he?
So he has a chance of holding the jersey?

What do you think?

Froome is a better time trial specialist than Martin himself, just watch him beat him.

I think that we can now add Chris Froome to the pantheon of the comedy greats, of the likes of Woody Allen or Groucho Marx.

But while they were witty, fast and funny, this is more black comedy, the kind of thing that is completely hilarious but you can't even crack a smile. A comedy mastermind.

No, I'd say it's the exact opposite. It's comedy where you laugh out loud, but know in the back of your mind, it's actually horrifying, kind of like "la vita e bella".

 

[Afrank]

Soooooo?

The sky train again. Well.

Chris I'll by you a bag of bite-sized Snickers for that one.

So a multiple grand tour winner just got beaten by a 41 year old. He must have cracked really hard.

 

[trevim]

Let's put it this way, a 'normal' Contador, Nibali wouldn't have troubles with Horner and Santambrogio. Still, Sky is just....I have never seen anything like that. Hats off.

 

[BillytheKid]

So, let's get back to Paris-Nice and some honest racing.

Yeh, righto, eh.

 

[Miburo]

Rogers was nowhere btw. That's what happens when you leave sky

 

[Roude Leiw]

Uran was super strong, pulled for very long and almost beat Contador in the end.

That is what is completely wrong, henao coming in top 15 too

 

[Pippo_San]

The poll is very balanced...screw it I'm going for the Sky-train to crush everything and everyone.

Froomey here.

Like a boss!

I feel sorry for Cadel, I don't think he'll be a factor this year.

P.S. DID YOU LOOK AT PAPI HORNER?!?!

 

[Moviefan1203]

Take all this doping nonsense to the clinic. Sky won the day for racing well and Froome was the deserving winner.

 

[Jelantik]

As expected, Froome used his teammate to contain Contador. It'll be very important in TDF that Contador got his teammate matched the SKY. They are certainly impressive, Cataldo, Heano and Uran. Froome timed his attacked perfectly. Contador can't derailed SKY team by himself no matter how good he is. Froome said in Vuelta after getting the first hand riding against Contador, he must use his teammate to compete with him. Sky just showed that cycling is a team sport..

Now Kwiatkowski is a great TTer isn't he?

What do you think?

I think there's still chieti and distances can be made also in 6th stage, so there surely be something to watch in next days.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Skyborgs ready for the Giro and Tour

Methinks we have seen this before.

 

[will10]

This day panned out exactly to that of a doped team. It really is predictable. I wish the cheating would stop.

wrong section dude

Take to the clinic. Salute!

 

[whittashau]

Shhhh, Sky are the only bad guys here.

Come on, be honest - does this seem right to you? Santambrogio did well today, but Sky is amazing in about 90% of races. They're just THAT much better?

 

[El Pistolero]

Too bad Cataldo sucked at all his years at QS except for one day. Imagine how Kwiatkowski would climb at Sky.

LOL great !!!

but why did Pauwels suck?

 

[Afrank]

Nothing clinic about it, just surprised by contador's under-performance.
I am glad to see Horner up there though.

 

[Moviefan1203]

They are without question the best team in the world right now. I greatly admire their winning ways. Their team is LOADED with talented riders.

There was talk of him signing as a go-between in the Cav deal. Would have been something for sure

 

[kanari]

All this clinic talk in the race threads is destroying this forum.

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Listening to people whine like watching Contador attack at 4km to go and then waiting to learn the margin of victory is more exciting than that is very amusing, but quite pathetic.

He hasn't gone on his beef diet yet.
