Bike chains been around forever.
Why no propeller shaft from pedals to rear wheel via a multi smooth gearbox.

Predicting Candodor will move close to, or top three at end of stage.
And TJ will bomb out completely.

Why no tandem bike races.
Imagine a peloton of these, they would fly easily over 80kph.

>>77989950
I think they have tandem races on the track

but that long climb isnt steep at all, itll be sky train all the way up. The climb before that is interesting though. I hope coverage starts before they reach it.

And it comes with much climbing done already. It should be BTFO galore

Oh wait I was looking at the worong climb. The steep one comes first. The the 28km. Still should be many corpses tomorrow

cant wait to see them crawling up there. I hate how easy they make ~10% climbs look but I bet at 17.5% they will be grinding the shit out of their smallest gear.

same, watching back the final bits of a stage is just not the same as enjoying the comfiness of watching over an hour of it.

>>77990165
Are you forgetting about the TT

What a huge effort by non-sky teams to end the breakaway. I bet the day De Gendt doesn't go to the breakaway, the breakaway will win

>>77991154
¿Why, is one of the GC guys a solid TTer?

:^)

>>77991154
I want to

>>77990035
I Want That

>>77991195
I heard tejay was

>>77991195
Isn't froome?

>>77991195
Kelderman is pretty good too, I really hope he can be on the podium this Vuelta.

>>77991332
that's the joke

so many of these other ``gc canditates" cannot TT themselves out of a paper bag, so froome wins by default

I hope Porte is in good form again next year, and Dumoulin goes to the TDF to challenge vroome

Is Chris Froome the Lewis Hamilton of cycling?

Anyone else already tired of these silly peloton commercials?

>>77992893
He's using the Froome bluff tactic

Delicious climbing

>>77992772
\o/

He might do it :o

fuck can't wait for the 'highway of hurt' to 'destination pain'

Based Majka seems up to the task

> Astana literally pacing Aru off the back

Gee he must be a real cunt

RIP Yates

Aru will not win another grand tour.

>>77993793
>he is so ded he almost fell off his bike
pretty sure Astana gave up on him

>Aru

Aru? More like a poo

>>77993793
Probably a nice combination of Aru being a cunt, Aru leaving for UAE, and Miguel Angel Lopez being a better rider and teammate.

I'm impressed with the middle group for not getting caught, too

Majka is so based. I absolutely any rider who actively targets KOM classifications.

That said, would've liked to see Costa manage something today. I think his best years are behind him, and that he wasted some of his prime trying to be a GC contender.

BARDET
ABSOLUTE MADMAN

>the great french hope

Go for it Bardet

Go Bardet!

Why are spanish civil guards mostly jacked?
Here they are usually dadbods in their 40-50s

Cute to see these other riders making "attacks". Froome is unshakeable.

NIBBLES

Imagine if Contador hadn't bizarrely lost 3 mins so early on.

At least he can make that all up on the Angliru... right?

>>77994213
exactly.

here comes vroome

GET OUT OF THE WAY YA SHITS

haha they pretty much boxed froome in

Fucking Froome

Everyone always forgets Froome is a sick climber with that TT style.

Wew Chaves died quick.

MAJKA \o/

MIGUELO

Forcing Froome into interval training might be a good strategy

SUPERMAN IS BACK.

Im confused, where is Chaves?

Zakarin and Kelderman looking good, they seem to get better and better. They could very well be the strongest two riders at the end of next week.

The GC aside contador will never fail to bring entertainment.

>everybody sucking Contador's dick and saying they will miss him and his attacks
>Bardet literally attacks every stage

Rented fatties with my bro and went riding for the whole day. Caught the last 15 km.

>>77995213
The difference is that Bardet just kills himself on the attacks. Contador actually delivers sometimes.
