tour de france?

Any predictions out there? When will Andy make a move? Will he lay up and stalk til the sprint or will he attack throughout and try to break him? In the mountains maybe? 8 seconds peeps.

Tomorrows is the final day of mountain climbs of the pyrenees followed by a stage of levelish terrrain then sprints on Saturday.

Do or die tomorrow. I'm guessing Andy will turn himself inside out to break Contador. With brother Frank out of the race its gonna be tough to pull it off. He'll need his remaining teammates to do the same. Unfortunately I don't think he's got a shot in the time trial. Contador is too good at them and its an Achilles heel for Andy.

Rooting for schleck in this one

Im loving the commercials with Lance on his trainer and Alfonse.....

Totally agree, but I'm holding out hope anyways. Look back at recent tour winners - several of them had reputations for being bad at time trials but surprised everyone by doing well in one, out of nowhere, only to win the tour.

wont it be crazy if Andy takes him in these time trials....

 

[Capt_Cully]

I'm certainly on the edge of my seat.......gonna be a killer showdown.

C'mon andy!!!!!!

Very impressive!!!! It definitely will bring Contadors move in the Pyrenees into question. His victory will be tainted and Schleck will be in his head for the next 12 months. I'm glad that weasle Alberto didn't win a stage in this tour. A little asterisk for the little worm who should have been more sportsmanlike IMO. Schleck will no doubt become the new peoples favorite by showing poise, and being gracious to Contador after carrying him up the back side of the Tourmalet. At least Contador knew not to steal victory on that stage.

well put mark....i cant stand alberto. IMO a winner of the tour, should be able to win a few stages atleast

I say andy should attack on the last day, fair is fair

 

[Capt_Cully]

If it were me, I would, but I'm spiteful and have a slack moral compass. The appeal of Schleck is that he's shown he's a class act. He's only like 23 or 24 right? His day will come.

 

[oneradtek202]

he should attack and give it his all, he deserves it, not contador

Yeah unfortunately he is too classy to do it I think. Much more poise than I would have. I'm morally casual when it comes to that

hell yes he deserves it
