Dude is going to completely dominate the classics for years to come. Wouldn't be surprised to see him dominate the road race in London

Did anyone just develop a new favorite rider in le Tour? Froome telling Cadel to suck it!
Sounds like he's a pretty good time trial rider too. Although, may be prone to some dumb mistakes it sounds. Found a decent little write up on him. Chris Froome
What did he do to already lose 1.5 minutes?
Wiggins looked good too though. Froome looks like he may be fun to watch in the mountains though.

I'm anti-Cadel, so I'm on Team Froome. Mrs. Baloo has informed me she doesn't like Sagan at all.

Great start to the mountains, cant wait for tomorrow, 7 climbs should again blow away the pretenders.
Nibali will be an interesting one to wach, after his comments about not caring about Wiggins, he was still there at the end.
Stupid to be looking this far ahead, but the tour next year, on the 100th anniversary should be great with Andy schleck and Contador back aswell as vans and Wiggins.

Cadel Evans has this

I think Naboli is in a great situation to win this tour, he is lurking and waiting for last 2 mountain stages.

Anyone have a quick summary of the race so far. I plan to actual follow now that I found out I get it and it's about the only thing on when I get off shift

Why have the organizers not thrown a HC climb at these guys this week? I don't get what they're setting up for.
Still like Niboli sits in GC and looked good in today's stage.

You will be served on wednesday and twice on Thursday. It gets pretty rough after the first break. That will help separate the contenders from the pack.

The last 2 days has already done this, its pretty much already down to the top 3 already
Also pretty gutted about Sammy Sanchez he's one of my favourite riders

Always beware Denis Menchov. Just sayin'. He will not go away.
Team Sky! Totally want Wiggins to win this.

It's strange seeing Cavendish doing grunt, work befitting a low-paid domestique. Of course if things go according to plan, you could very well see Wiggins doing grunt work on the Champs Elysees for Cavendish in a couple of weeks, while wearing the yellow jersey. It was that way back in 1997 when Jan Ullrich did grunt work for Erik Zabel on the flat stages, and Zabel returned the favor on the mountain stages. The end result was that their team brought both the yellow and green jerseys to Paris.

I don't see how Sagan loses the green jersey. And Ulrich didn't do squat for Zabel. Those Telekon teams were gloriously dysfunctional.
Posted on 7/8/12 at 5:03 pm to Baloo
Wasn't Bjarnie head of TeleKom then or was he still riding? I just don't get how Ulrich and Zabel ever co-existed.
Posted on 7/8/12 at 5:05 pm to Baloo
Sagan will likely be the favorite in London as well. The course should fit him or a guy like Cancellara perfectly

You don't know what you're talking about. I have videos from the 1997 Tour of Ullrich, and defending Tour champions Bjarne Riis, doing leadouts for Zabel into Bordeaux and another sprint stage that year, and Zabel triumphed both times.

1997 was a transition year for Telekom. Riis started out as team leader, but after he cracked on one of the mountain stages, Ullrich was given permission to ride for himself. Remember, in 1996, when Riis won the Tour, Ullrich was runner-up.
