Joey Jo Jo Junior Shabadoo Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Nibbles has got this. Amazing stage. The way the seem to switch to landscapes from Mars and the Moon every so often is amazing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiddy Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 He's been eating steak cooked by Contador's chef.It really pisses you off that he hasn't shown any sort of form since his Tour win of 2014. (To such an extent where he got thrown off La Vuelta for holding onto a car). Then comes out with two performances, reminiscent of Chris Horner, on consecutive days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Nomad Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Haven't watched the Nibali clinching stage yet, but was fairly predictable. Any man who has Vinokourov as him DS, cannot be taken seriously. Gutted for Kruijswijk, easily the best rider in the race. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gutted for Kruijswijk, easily the best rider in the race.A win for either him or Chavez would have been great for the sport. I think a new dawn is coming, with a crop of 6-10 capable of winning GT's.For some though,it would appear winning at any cost is still prevalent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) Bertie takes the Dauphine prologue by 6 from Porte & 13 from Froome, over 4km uphill. Aru a further 55 back! Needs to find the sort of luck Nibbles got in the Giro. Edited June 5, 2016 by kiddy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishop Briggs Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Impressive Dauphine victory for Froome yesterday. Porte could be his main rival in the TdF. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Don't think Bertie or Porte have got it, not on that showing anyway. Quintana's his main rival for the Tour IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right about Quintana but he will need the full support of Valverde who is now 36. Froome will probably have Landa to help him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Landa, Thomas, Kiryenka, Nieve, Standard, Kennaugh, Pouels & Roche I'd guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishop Briggs Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Landa, Thomas, Kiryenka, Nieve, Standard, Kennaugh, Pouels & Roche I'd guess. Landa is Porte's natural successor. Luke Rowe was in last year's TdF team and Nieve rode in the Vuelta a Espana. Christian Knees, with his lengthy GT experience, is another possibility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a patch on the Fausto Coppi references though, local cheese & the Bianchi Blue! GBNF Edited July 2, 2016 by kiddy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit OTT in his post match interviews about dead soldiers and African children though. A career long ambition fulfilled, in pulling on yellow. Will he continue to chase Green, or climb off to concentrate Rio? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to get my Kelly ears on now, takes me a week to understand him I liked Liggett and Sherwin, but I think they were past their best before date. Boulting is doing a decent job and I quite like Millar. Prefer Eurosport though, especially if watching the whole stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are few stages that Cavendish can win in the first week or so and then he has a decision to make. He's probably more interested in going for the stage win records than the Green jersey. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
