What can stop Froome at the Tour?

[Libertine Seguros]

Yes I think that would stop him ! What about Nyartholotep ?

Tour of R'lyeh is a very difficult race.

First stage is a Negative Time Trial.

Second stage the parcours cannot be drawn on an X and Y axis graph as usual but instead needs to be on the Y and Z axes.

Third stage, the altimetry chart is a spiral.

Stage 4 is the first MTF with a descent finish.

Stage 5 is on cobbled tarmac roads through a flat mountain range rotated through 90º.

Stage 6 will exist in space but not in time, and will be scored with time bonuses in increments of -π.

The final stage has an MTF with a punishing gradient measured in factors of i.

There could always be bad moments or nuance that works against you. It's not impossible that he could get isolated by Contador, Rodriguez, Valverde, Hesjedal or even Schleck.

This curcumstance doesn't guarantee anything. Very likely, Froome is able to smash all of them with 1 attack. I expect something like Froome's Green mountain final move from 3-4 km to go at Bonascre.

Who?

Multiple attacks,then he won't be in control anymore

Unfortunately, they are never able to give out points and mountains jerseys since complex numbers cannot be ordered consistently.

Nowadays?

Poor Ritchie.

 

[IndianCyclist]

Chaingate can also stop him

 

[happytramp]

Realistically the only thing that can stop him is Vincenzo Nibali.

Thats not fair, Vicenzo has control over the weather, he is like a one man weather machine.

The rain , the medium mountains stages ...

There are no medium mountain stages. I know, the organisation says otherwise, but that's just a lie.
edit: unless you consider the stage to Bagnères-de-Bigorre to be a medium mountain stage, which is not far from the truth.
edit 2: the only one who can stop him is Wiggins. But that seems highly unlikely to me.

Jakob Fuglsang (or Birdsong if you like)

He's sexy and he knows it. Killer looks.

Oh, so many possibilities. Andy when riding Cancellara's famous electric-powered bike; can be struck by lightning or hit by French TV car And just now, looking upstairs, a meteorite could be a foctor as well

 

[The Barb]

Blood taking vampires ...

 

[Gugashwill]

Zombie Apocalyps sounds reasonable.

[cycladianpirate]

Good grief! Weren't some people asking this question about Wiggins and the Giro?

"What can stop Froome at the Tour?"

Events, dear sir, Events.
