Which Rider and Race would you choose to defend our Earth?

[Asero831]

If there would be an alien invader of unknown physique and skillset, and challenges our planet for a 2017 cycling race.

which Rider and Race would you choose to defend our Earth?

 

[Sciocco]

Valverde for he is a MONSTER.

 

[gunara]

Cancellara to neutralize the race

Re: Which Rider and Race would you choose to defend our Eart

Nibali, anywhere, anytime.

 

[Random Direction]

Bouhanni or Vino, both for obvious reasons.

Nibali, anywhere, anytime.

+1

 

[Alex Simmons/RST]

Surely:

 

[El Pistolero]

Nibali actually did what you propose in 2014. The alien crashed out because he couldn't handle his awesomeness.

Alex, I didn't think that this was the clinic

Vino would bring a gun, Bouhanni would either start a fight or crash the alien in the sprint

 

[Cance > TheRest]

I reckon Froome would be able to reach a peace agreement through negotiation, considering . . .

Maybe it should be? :lol:

 

[Red Rick]

Well, Froome and co neutralized a war on on a moon landscape before, so I think I'd have to go with them

 

[Red Rick]

Fixed poll, both ways

 

[laurensde+]

The Badger.

Boonen or Cance in Paris-Roubaix would be my pick.

Since froome is an alien that actually already happened in the Vuelta 2011.
Anyway, Vino is the only acceptable choice.

I can't find the relevant photo ...
but in GT sometime in the last 3 years
Ryder Hesjedal rode off the front of the peloton
in what looked like aviator goggles - quite froglike.
That look was sufficiently alien that IMO
he could easily have pulled off a meeting with
little green men and been taken as one of their allies.
Think: "for mash get smash"

 

[HelloDolly]

Vino from the list above is the only bad ass ....He could always send them one of his e-mails if brute force did not work

 

[PremierAndrew]

Should be Cav on a flat stage, he'd take out any threats

 

[robin440]

lance, he would just blackmail them to leave

 

[DanielSong39]

I'll go with Froome; if he loses he can get the result neutralized.

 

[TMP402]

It's just so obviously Froome

1. Fight fire with fire.
2. He's on a team that owns the whole sky.
3. He travels to races on the deathstar.

 

[Choppy Warburton]

Abdoujaparov

 

[Thepirateisgood]

Nairo Quintana. The stone face won't give away our deepest secrets, and he won't attack so that's good against a bigger power.

Re: Which Rider and Race would you choose to defend our Eart

Vino. (maybe 2005 version? or 2010)

Any one-day race.
