Re: 2015 USCHO Cycling Thread
No, I don't believe in <strike>miracles</strike> Froome. No less him getting out-miracled by the same rouleur who took down Cancellara in the Tour de Suisse prologue.
Funny thing is when I saw Titleist's post my immediate thought was "there's no ****ing way he's referring to Dumoulin."

Re: 2015 USCHO Cycling Thread
Even if I accept what Froome did, I can't get my mind Dumoulin. To say nothing of Dumoulin getting caught then out sprinting Froome and Purito. Froome winning, I'm not happy, but fine. Purito getting out-sprinted by Froome, well Purito is getting up there so... Dumoulin getting way from an elite climbing group, OK. But then Dumoulin getting caught by Froome and then out-sprinting him after having been away like that, naw. Everything about the last 5K was nuts right up to Piti being the first to attack!
So can Dumoulin survive the Andorra stage, put a minute into Froome in the TT and win this thing?

I think the only entity who believe JVDB has ever been a contender for a GC is Phaul Sherggett

Maybe we ought to do something about those man hole covers.

So raise your hand if you thought Tyler Farrar would stay away and give the US the win.
Sagan pulls away on the final climb to win the worlds. I'll be honest I figured a Belgian, more than likely Greg Van Avermandt for the win. Noticed that the Worlds were Liggett Less and almost Bobke less don't know if this was testing out the team for next year or what.

Naw, they've done that a lot, used the second team for smaller races and such, although I suppose the Worlds would be considered pretty important. Maybe Phil gets to pick and cjhoose what he wants to do. He ain't a spring chicken anymore.
In any event, the Sherwen/van de Velde combination is even more horrible than the Liggett/Sherwen team. Paul seems to have this abnormal fixation with vomit.

Re: 2015 USCHO Cycling Thread
Just wanted to say I notice the 2016 TDF route goes thru Switzerland for a bit. I'm sure there are certain posters who especially like that.
I think the route as a whole is quite a bit better than last year.
