merlot15 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 WTF with all the Wiggins team Sky love on here. You do know why they are called UK Postal right.

And to be fair I'm not one of wigginsisis fans, I think he's a bit of a ****** to be honest, however I don't detract from his bike riding ability.

Sharky999 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Anyway. Stage 10. Big jaggy bit to contend with and a wee lump.before the run on to the finish. I had said froomdog might be touted for this stage. Going to change my mind and say I haven't a clue. Will be a group finish, don't know how many, or who, l.l Sanchez again.

Find the accusations quite funny tbh, of course what is in effect the Team GB Cycling Squad are going to be allowed to dope in an olympic year when in no way would it undermine nearly ?1bn of investment in London 2012! Yet to see any of the Team Sky guys fail a drug test, until they do I'll put it down to a natural upturn in form, people seem to think that Wiggins has come from nowhere but he was being touted as a contender last year before crashing and has had a very consistant season!

Sharky999 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Stage 11, the second most exciting stage(bar stage 16) This is anybody's, looking at the kotm, Thibaut pinout from fdj might have a dig, I can't see any of the first 4 finishers today having any gas for tomorrow. Sky and bmc will look to play cat and mouse and maybe in the last climb there might be some action. If any one gains time it will be froomdog.

Sharky999 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I should get paid for this. Pinot comes second and froomdog gains time. As for froomdog being pulled back, only because Wiggins was being left by the group, still to see Wiggins really prove himself in the mountains and not sitting behind his team. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currahee! Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Froome was outstanding today. Do you think he just forgot about Wiggins when he took off? Was he told to drop back or did he suddenly realise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vulture Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 What is Froome's contract situation with Sky ? I'm surprised no team selected him for their team leader especially after he performed so well in last years Vuelta. Reminds me a bit of the Hinault/Lemond situation.

Sharky999 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Froome was outstanding today. Do you think he just forgot about Wiggins when he took off? Was he told to drop back or did he suddenly realise? My Opinion- he was given the go ahead to go off up the road to put pressure on nibali, however when nibali followed him and wiggins went backwards, he was told to wait, as the risk to wiggins was to great. i dont believe the "radio had fell out my ear at that point" quote from wiggins, personally i think froomdog is pulling wiggins up the mountains. I said to my mate last week that froomdog should be looking for another team, problem is that no other team have spent this kind of money on people.
