Tour De France - 2016

Looking forward to it - how is Cav’s lead out team this season?

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!
