Hey this move could be interesting. Nope, Sky must set a hard tempo even when the riders in front are no danger whatsoever to Froome.
zzzz, ban them all for crimes against cycling.

Good work lads, bridge the gap then just let Yates ride the entire time

Just about to post the exact same thing. Why bother joining up with Yates/Chavez to just sit on and be swallowed by the bunch. :lol:

I feel like Puccio is underrated on here, he's been great this Vuelta. But what would I know, a few years ago Cavendish was leading the Sky train up cat 1s. There's just something about that Sky train that makes guys ride out of their skins...

Yeah why not just attack and ride away and win the stage? :D Jokes aside, I doubt any one could do more than that.
