You are right I suppose, I should have used the great Brixia Tour as a reference. My bad.Von Mises said:It wasnt FoxxyBrown1111 who made stupid comparison, it was FGL with his Nibali and Tour of Poland reference. Foxxy only replied with LeMond example. Obviously he is not saying that LeMond was grupetto rider, he is just showing how stupid this Nibali-Tour of Poland link is.
But, lets get serious, is it a wonder when a proven stage racer like Nibali gets into shape in the space of four weeks? Dont think so, apart from the doping question.
Is it a wonder when a grupetto rider becomes a GT killer in the space of two weeks time? I do think so, yes.
Is Chris Horner a wonder? Hell yeah. But, he was rested, totally focussed, weak field etc etc
Guess you just seemed to have missed the word ''hypocrite'' dear Foxxy used? You know, Foxxy, the defender of a rider who had bilharzia treatment with pills that basicly kill everything in the body and yet that same rider was able to win the Tour of Oman three/four weeks later with some electric cycling? Speaking of wonders:he is just showing how stupid this Nibali-Tour of Poland link is
