I am sure he was sending a message....but I am sure Wiggins is wondering how he could get spanked by so much by a climber!...he is probably also wondering how a 17 year old in the US just about broke his 4000 world record as well thou .RICHARDH wrote:I know Cadel was impressed with that effort, my first reaction was that i thought he was sending a message to Johan and Lance.

Read about it while at the club post ride cafe and saw LA's tweets...
and then followed by,Unfortunate day for Alberto. Amazing talent but still a lot to learn.
Hint, hint, I (LA) am still the old master come TdF time.Appears Alberto "bonked". Not that uncommon in endurance sports. It's miserable. He'll be back fightin' tomorrow.
Can't wait to see Cycling Central's video footage.

Well, not that surprising. After all, they are still human. As for being monitored. Well, I doubt it. A seasoned pro should know how to look after his/her intake.Redbull wrote:I find the bonk excuse a bit puzzling.
Food intake is monitored. Plus you don't get to win the type and number of races he has by doing rookie mistakes and forgetting to eat.

It just shows how much more human he is when he isn't protected by his team. Strong yes, superhuman he isn't.
