maybe he needed a result like this for confidence, maybe he just peaks really well and is average for large portions of season. Hard to know with only this to go by.

LaFlorecita said:But he could also ride some 1 week stage races, he could win some of them.
dlwssonic said:He could but he has only performed well in 1 race so we have to see how he does in other races after this vuelta.

LaFlorecita said:Wow, that was quick!But as someone already mentioned in this thread, this might give him more confidence.

El Pistolero said:Perhaps Sastre back to Riis as well?
hatcher said:I'm sure the rumour exists, and it may even be true. Was genuinely checking I hadn't missed an announcement.
If a team outbids Sky then they will be paying Froome a heck of a lot of money. Very risky.
spalco said:According to this German/Swiss site tracking transfers, Froome is linked to half the pro peloton, so I would guess it's more than 50/50 that he'll go somewhere else than Sky since I doubt it's all baseless.
El Pistolero said:I hope Geox pulls out of cycling and Riis can get his hands around Cobo. And Menchov needs to go to Katusha. Perhaps Sastre back to Riis as well?
