"Yes, I'll go to the Tour de France. But it's a difficult challenge because nobody has been able to win the Giro and the Tour for 15 years,†Biciciclismo.com reported Contador as saying.
"The Tour is the biggest race there is and all the best riders ride it. That gives me extra motivation.â€

That was a relatively short power climb, different to those big mountain climbs. Contador was clearly under pressure to make up time here, albeit unsuccessfully. Similarly Andy Schleck wasn't right up there as it was not his sort of climb.dirty_harry wrote:judgin by the pain on his face going up the mur the other night i would say hes no longer on whatever he was on. IMO he was still on it in the giro he never even winced as he danced away going up some of the italian mountains however on the mur he was genuinely hurting. he looked like a good cyclist but not a drugged up one. and he also didnt look in as though he was better than everyone else. he was on par with cadel and everyone else in that group. i dont like contador but i would say hes not on the drugs for the tour. only time will tell i guess.

+1 ... armchair critics here= not well informedContador's reply: ''Personally, I think you are not well informed. My tolerance against doping has always been zero.
I also believe that everyone has the right to believe what they want.''
''Since the beginning of the season … I've managed to win almost every race I've gone into.
I am sure I'll be one of the most controlled riders in the Tour …
I have full confidence the solution will come in my favour.''
