As much as I dislike the cunt, fair fucks to Froome for pushing those tards out of the way
Attention seeking arseholes them cycling fans are. Cunts the lot of 'em.
Any fucker who runs along the riders like that is not a cycling fan
Great win for Quintana.
Some Kenyan lad has just won the Tour de France…I always thought running was more their thing.
David Walsh reckns he’s clean.
Great finish, that Eurosport lad is a super commentator. How he listens to Sean Kelly’s drawl all the time I’ll never know.
I’m a little unsure of Walsh, he may have gone native.
Great scenes in Paris now, they put on a decent show.
Yeah, I started reading the article thinking that but finished it thinking otherwise.
Them Kenyans are a different breed.
Is Froome a bit, happy?
Saddle sores
Not sure it explains the glitter.
They interviewed him with some hottie on Eurosport I presume is his missus.
Elton John was married. Still not explaining the glitter.
By that logic Nicolas Roche is French and Dan Martin is English.
What, you mean they’re not?
[quote=“Blake, post: 804057, member: 1755”]Damn right, anyone who has any doubts after seeing that ridiculous acceleration is a fool. To generate that power so suddenly is not normal, I never saw LA do something like that.

I was offline all weekend. Just wanted to weigh in on this one. I can’t recall ever seeing anything like that.
What’s worse is that the Observer had an editorial yesterday that basically accused the French press and fans of sour grapes and of not keeping up with advances in all the things Sky harp on about like aerodynamic riding positions and, wait for it, lots and lots of hard training.
It’s like 1999 all over again. Do people EVER learn???

Ah that’s a ridiclous over-simplification of Sky’s methods. Don’t you know they also cut down on the consumption of fatty foods? These guys are at the cutting edge.

People are retarded.
Some refused to believe Lance was guilty right up until the end. Some Irish still refuse to believe their heroes of the 80’s were up to anything.
Do you cycling types still think Wiggins was clean last year or does this taint that as well?
These suspicions resurfaced when one newspaper dusted off a vintage Lance Armstrong headline: “[U]Chris Froome[/U] sur une autre planète.” For a proud nation, it is perhaps easier to imagine that foreign riders are “on another planet” than they have simply prepared more diligently and scientifically.
