Re:

Vai Pozzovivo!!

And Fuglsang, make me proud, stay in contention!

He's limiting his loss, but it will be substantial if Pozzo goes full *******

So we have our Tour squad:

Froome Porte Poels Henao Roche Kennaugh Thomas Rowe Stannard

Got to think Deignan gets a spot?

Re:

So Henao is dropped? The new Sky mountain goat is Thomas?

A mountain goat who is very good at cobbled classics too...

Miguel Angel Lopez, what a rider!

LOL.

Not surprised that Henao dropped after what happened to him last year, but that Thomas can climb so well.

Slow recovery from long time out, and in this race in particular was already down on GC so worked hard for Thomas.

 

[More Strides than Rides]

Time gap made a big jump just now. Only ~75"

 

[Simurgh]

Spilak and Pinot goes

Re: Tour de Suisse stage 5 Unterterzen - Rettenbachferner 23

the gap is by far smaller than expected. damn it

 

[hfer07]

Prepare yourselves for a massive attack from my man Miguel Angel "Superman" Lopez

E3 winner stays with them who call themselves climbers

 

[BigMac]

Pinot just farts everyone down the hill. I knew it.

He certainly deserves it but trying to get into a Tour squad is very hard at Sky.

Would prefer Deignan over Henao but I think Henao is needed for the two Murs.

Thomas did pretty well in Paris Nice this year too remember..

he finished 1-2 on a climb with Porte

If stays with them to the end he has to be a lock for at least a podium.

no surprise there.

in other news, pinot should just go.

 

[b.broadhurst]

Pinot was cooked earlier, how is he doing this?

 

[Escarabajo]

Why Thomas can climb so well???

 

[Rollthedice]

Go Pinot!

 

[Flamin]

Pinot getting more and more comfortable the longer the climb gets.

 

[woodburn]

The GPS is ridiculous. Now showing 36 seconds to Pinot who has broken away.

It's still a day/night transformation for the new season considering he is 29 and never shown anything like this.

Mental strength. obviously

Re:

He is able to lose weight for the different parts of the season, apparently.
