If everything in the next two days goes somewhat normal, Mollema should end up on the podium, maybe behind Yates who I think has been stronger in recent days. Got you this time. One down, one Yates to come tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I can't predict against falls at the worst possible moments of course On the other hand: you said Aru and Porte would do good but they were far from convincing (then again, I agreed with you, so yeah, we both lose ) Edited July 22, 2016 by heywoodu If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

He needs a long attack now, because i can't see him doing 2 minutes on Quintana/Bardet on the final climb and downhill, and that just doesn't happen in present times. As for Porte, well he is Porte, all the big expectation and never the big result, even though he was the only one hanging with Froome the whole time, the guy just has no luck.

heywoodu 13,610 Posted July 23, 2016 #577 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Morzine, the place of Floyd Landis' epic victory in 2006 He had a huge blow in the day before, losing 8 minutes on the final climb and so losing his yellow jersey. He drank some whiskey and beer to recover and the next day he showed one of the most incredible attacks in cycling history: going full-power for the entire stage, basically riding solo for the entire stage with someone who's name I forgot crying in his wheel He took a ton of time back and won the Tour de France right there. Well, he lost it because of doping a little while later but we can't let that ruin the fun of this epic bit of cycling history If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
