The Powg daysBack in the Dawg days this forum was crashing badly. It kept up pretty well with Pog's uber froomesque performance.
Did Froome ever have a TT performance like this?
Not even close.Did Froome ever have a TT performance like this?
Yes. I feel sorry for Roglic as a fellow human being. But he and Jumbo were largely responsible for largely killing the GC battle and the 'big' stages.
Unfortunately I missed some of the fun stages as I'd lost interest
God imagine it was old Lampre and Rabo kicking Sky to the kerb. This place would have went nutsJust realized, Lampre are going to win the Tour. How very 2020.
He never needed to. He usually had the buffer built up and wasnt chasing the tour on the TTNot even close.

Before the 2019 season Matxim and Gianetti got rid of nearly all the old Lampre coaches, team doctors and staff members who were leeching around Saronni and the whole team improved leaps and bounds.God imagine it was old Lampre and Rabo kicking Sky to the kerb. This place would have went nuts
Famous last words
Oh, with that team, they should have been able to conjure something up.
For starters, don't sacrifice Dumoulin, so you can play the numbers game.
I would have liked to have seen poor David de la Cruz trying to marshal the front for Pogacar in that case. Especially downhill...
Also, two days ago, Roglic had a gap after the gravel section but then just waited. Would the others have chased him, or would they have thought they were beaten already?
I feel sorry for Roglic. He was probably just following team orders, trusting that they had all the numbers worked out. But, at the same time, it's great to see a team who tried to suffocate the race fall at the final hurdle.
Not even close.
Some of the posters in here are hilarious.
The same people that said GC was over 2 days ago, are now saying Roglic and JV should have done more earlier.
You have a minute lead in a GT with a guy who has like 7/10 last ITTs he's done and who put 1'30 into the 2nd guy the last GT ITT they did vs each other.Oh, with that team, they should have been able to conjure something up.
