Tour De France - 2016

never mind the lead out team, Cav is never going to be the sprinter he was. He has only had a couple of stage wins this season. Renshaw and Eisel will give him a good shot though, as I think he has a great lead team.

Big fan of cycling :laughing:

I am always up with the leaders :cool:

undetected engine in my old armchair and some real good gear to get me up those steep inclines. :astonished:

Some of those Brits in the tour…top boyz :cool:

Try and get some pride back, with the cycling and Froome the record breaker? I hope so, but just think it could be a win to far for him.

Dan Martin rides for Ettix Quikstep not Cannondale.

Froome will win although Quintana has a monster team around him.

Age and treachery will always beat youth and inexperience.

On a side note I’m racing Sunday. I won’t win.

Whoops, yes he moved this year! Oh and good luck for Sunday, where yiu racing? I am more off road.

are you breaking it to me gently that Cav’s career is on the decline? :slight_frown:

Only for the last two years

One of the reasons he moved to DD is that he’s now allowed to get into breakways!

I would say the crash in 2014, was pretty much it!

I would love Cav to prove me wrong, as he is one of my favourite cyclists, but his days are gone no matter what team he is in. I hop DD can do it for him at the tour, as he has a great leadout team.

He’ll not beat MK, AG in a head to head and others are now just as good.

I’d sooner watch Sagan. He’s a bloody genius on a bike.

Sagan is one of my favourite riders. As I said in the OP, I hope he wins a stage as the amount of 2nd places was getting silly last year. But a great of the green jersey!

But with that mullet, nowhere near as handsome as the boy Marcel :lou_is_a_flirt:

My Mrs watches him and then leaves a damp spot on the sofa.

On that note I prefer Sagan, as I like a good Tinkoff.

Fat git!

He may be in decline but Cav in his prime, tucked up behind Renshaw, carving their way through gaps in a final sprint was a sight to behold.

Surprizing win for Cav today, made the most of a bizarre and crappy lead outs for for the big guns.

Oh ye of little faith!

So happy for him, he is so happy to have the yellow jersey. Did not see any of yesterday as it was my wedding anniversary. Busy preparing and cooking a 3 course meal. Today a well earned sit in front of the tv with a few chilled ones!
