BMC Reinforcements
Postby Mr Squiggle » Fri Aug 13, 2010 11:08 am
I have only been following the cycling for a year or two, and have only ever seen him win King of the Mountains and a stage in Paris-Nice this year. Has he done anything else of note?, and do people think he will be a valuable asset for BMC should the rumours be confirmed?

Hence the reason I asked if he had done anything else.Robdog wrote:That's the kind of thing that can make a career.Mr Squiggle wrote:King of the Mountains and a stage in Paris-Nice this year.
Looks like he might potentially be useful, but I reckon BMC might still be looking to bolster its climbing support stocks a little more.

I think his broken elbow had more of an influence on his performance in the mountains than his team did.The Womble wrote:They need an entire teams worth of climbers with some passion instead of the disjointed crap Cadel had this year

I might have to backflip on my call for the banning of TTT's in GT's. Surely there should be at least 2 in every GT (if Fab signs for BMC)MichaelB wrote:Phinney has now signed for BMC, must make Lancey feel a bit dopey, especially after putting him on as a Stagiare in RS and on the Livestrong U23 as well ...... Will be a good help in TTT's for any GT's GT's for cuddles
