But you weren't seriously trying to explain a loving classic's specialist chasing down top flight climbers at the highest level of the sport were you?

Gnarly bit of a transitional stage here.Withnail posted:He got hounded as much or more as Froome is. He just handled it a lot worse. Cuddles is the only one, recently, that didn't get hounded too much. At least that's my recollection.

ukle posted:has become? It's pretty clear over the past decade or two, with minor exceptions/corrections, that the default is now a concentration of doping willingness and expertise in a leading team or two as opposed to a larger group of teams. It used to be everyone was drug fueled but now the outcome is drug determined. Just this pony's opinion. It definitely makes sense that a flatlander Welshman is crushing a Colombian dude raised at 3k meters in the climbs. That's very different from everyone doping but the climbers still taking the climbs.

Wales is proper hilly mind. The Bwlch is just like Ventoux but with more burned out cars.

Parody Threads posted:flatlander Welshman Those 2 words do not belong together. Wales is nothing but Hills / Small Mountains its one of the most rugged yet populated parts of the earth. There is a reason why Wales has a long history of Cycling, its kind of perfect for generating people tough at it same as the North of England and a lot of Scotland.

I don't really follow cycling but I saw this on twitter today on something mostly unrelated http://www.stickybottle.com/blogs/the-gambling-links-uci-and-team-sky-must-finally-confront/ Did nobody give a poo poo or just not notice or what?

Yeah, but there's no real altitude. The highest point in the UK is about 2 km below good blood-boosting air.

Wales is definitely hilly, I wasn't trying to insult the people or the land. Been there, great place. GT is not a mountain guy, that adjective was restricted to him. That was the point.

JC Péraud's crash looked terribly painful. At least he didn't break anything, or at least I haven't seen any reports saying so. Sad to see it after his 2013 TT crash towards the end of the Tour.
