Two minutes in the timetrail stage.... if he had that time back his unfortunate accident in the rain would not have mattered.

Taxus4a said:CQ give the really importance to every race, so, it counts that.
dominate the Tour? yes, froome was strong, but Quintana and Purito were stronger in the climbs and Tony Martin stronger in the ITT, so that is very different that Lance, or even Ullrich or Riis, when they won.
b.broadhurst said:but then he would of had the same accident again in the following week after pulling out
if he say SKy will dominate, I could say that as well, you dont need to be a mosnter of predictions for that. But if you are borderline...he was wrong, they are not dominating the season, they are the third team of the season.brilleaben said:All newfags up in this thread. I can't remember a single time where WonderLance has been wrong about a prediction.

I have got 110 euros in Zweeler the only time I bet some money (just 2.5 euros) in cycling, by being the first in the second ITT of the Tour.
I predict as well in a forum Ciolek would won San Remo this year, and he will win this weekend Tours as well.
I could prove both things.
I wrote in 2008 that Froome impressed me as well.
Well, if he is so good, we can start from now on a competition of predictions to see if he has just lucky with his conspirative theories making sense with reallity in the case of SKy, or he is really good.

The Hitch said:Which guy are you talking about, WonderLance, del1962 or Taxus4A?
b.broadhurst said:Hahahahahaha
Brad is terrible in the rain and he didn't even have the form to win the Giro.
He couldn't even beat Dowsett in the TT.

Taxus4a said:And this year, yes, Porte was strong till July, the same way Roche was very strong from july onwards, it is a question of season planification. but of course, Porte is a very strong rider, at least as Roche.
Angliru said:He had the form but not the motivation. Being relegated to the Giro was a massive blow to his ego and morale. He felt disrespected, unappreciated and discarded.
