I'd think that Britain woUld be extremely Upset if Froome were hit by a car dUring the ToUr and had to abandon. I bet that's what happened to Hoogerland in the ToUr a coUple of years ago. I bet Eye of the Tiger was blaring in his ear, and he failed to note the car coming aroUnd him, and that's why he was thrown into the fence.
Now, other noises might be better, bUt the rock and roll is a bad idea. Maybe they need to Use dolphin or whale noises? Or wind blowing throUgh the trees? Or rain on a tin roof? BUt the rock and roll is dangeroUs.
I'm betting they also Use ferns in their work-oUt space too.

They dominate 1 GT and the 5 stage races leading up to it.
They do nothing in the other 2 GT's, classics, one day races etc.
To me this is not domination.

veganrob said:Ok, So why don't you start us off talking about science. And sorry, the jesey thing doesn't count as all teams have jerseys for different conditions. Sky just feels the need to tell everybody about it so the gullible will think that is a reason for their sucess.
Which is running out now in my opinion.

JRanton said:They aren't even dominating cycling in 2013. No longer the world's best team according to either the World Tour ranking or CQ Ranking.
The dominance was very short-lived.
Gloin22 said:Surely EBH will improve from this season performance. Henao too.
Porte can easily improve by winning Giro, this single win ---> all 2013 results.
And I think Sky really understood how they did wrong, with overtraining etc. Or at least you hope they can see that![]()
JRanton said:I'm not sure. Uran's gone, Froome and Porte are going to struggle to improve on this year's results, Wiggins is as good as retired and EBH continues to disappoint.
Maybe Thomas can get some decent results in the classics if he stops crashing and maybe some of their young climbing talent will have breakout seasons. Maybe.
Because Team SKY declared at their launch that aWonderLance said:They dominated the races that are worth winning...
oldcrank said:It can be argued whether six podium places and two
Grand Tour wins in three years is dominating or not,
but it can not be argued that SKY have been twice as
successful as any other team at achieving Grand Tour
wins and podium places in the last three years.
Pricey_sky said:Thing is Froome was so far ahead of the opposition in this year's Tour its hard to see past him for next year too. Not too sure if Porte can win the Giro but he certainly showed he has the climbing legs to challenge.
Yeah, because the rest of the cycling world haven't had any problems whatsoever... in fact, you could say that Sky was one of the least affected teams.Gloin22 said:They are likely to bounce up.

This has been the Sky way since 2011, and it has brought them a lot of success. I doubt they'll change anything, they don't care about post-July anyway.Gloin22 said:And I think Sky really understood how they did wrong, with overtraining etc. Or at least you hope they can see that![]()
WonderLance said:frooome will dominate the tour for at least the next decade, we have seen now that becasue of the level playing feild of modern cycling riders can compete for longer and longer well into their forties. He truley is an awesome tallent. only sky could recoginse this kind of tallent and train up such an awesome rider.
Hve you ever seen someone attack seated at 150rpm!?? It was like watching ballet crossed with poetry and keira knightley,
Puh-lease. Contador never had SCIENCE!Flamin said:Same was said about Contador and Schleck after 2010 Tour. We know how that went.
