Unless Cadel can pull a rabbit out of the hat tonight....an epic stage tonight given the climbs involved.

TdF 2012 is one of the least exciting tours in recent years. Quite boring actually.
Given the form of Wiggins and the ever better form of Fromme, I just can't see how an isolated and diesel like Cadel can do anything. This is just amazing, Cadel and supporters complained about a lack of team mates who can stay with him during his Lotto years, now in BMC, he is still a loner once the road slopes up. What's going on? I too hope that Cadel can gain a spark but I am not seeing it. In the telecast, Leggett has tried his best each time to suggest that Cadel is a fantastic descender and will gain time. No, it has not worked once.longshanks wrote:Unless Cadel can pull a rabbit out of the hat tonight....an epic stage tonight given the climbs involved.

Sad, when the Gabriel Gate cooking segment is the highlight. I'll go nuts if I have to sit through the Swisse ads for much longer.sogood wrote:A tour filled with disappointments.

Van Garderen must be invisible Cadel has been very well supported this year on all terrains. He even had a teammate help him try to get away on the toughest stage in the Alps. Unfortunately he could not hold his wheel. BMC are not the cause of Cadel's problems, they've done an excellent job imo.sogood wrote: This is just amazing, Cadel and supporters complained about a lack of team mates who can stay with him during his Lotto years, now in BMC, he is still a loner once the road slopes up.

You must be loving the erection medication ads, too, Marto. Take a pill and your house and garden go topsy turvy around you!Marto wrote:

what good is contador without a steak though?sogood wrote:It makes me want to see Contador back in the peloton and give Wiggins and Froome a run for their money.
he has helped, but rode for the white jersey the other night when cadel punctured - van garderen just rode off!Chuck wrote:Van Garderen must be invisible
Yup, look out when my tent springs up, and I give this look:clackers wrote:You must be loving the erection medication ads, too, Marto. Take a pill and your house and garden go topsy turvy around you!Marto wrote:

I think they should share the Spanish steak across the whole peloton!ni78ck wrote:what good is contador without a steak though?
