Sky TdF team...

Who was it who complained on this forum about hating how British people loved to knock the big British riders as opposed to getting behind them properly...

Im not hating on him and im not knocking him either and he may fly the british flag persey, but then so did greg rusedski, lennox lewis etc etc

Arenburg looks very green! I wonder if they'll give it a mow before the tour.

Noticed that. In fact, it looks better than our lawn at the moment.

You could make a case for Kennaugh, Deignan and Henao - although I agree with whoever said that Henao would be a better bet for the Vuelta.
Siutsou would be in one of the Dauphine or TdS teams if he were being considered wouldn't he?

Sagan just blew the TdeS peloton off on a hill - love the bloke

Sounds a bit rude that .
I haven't seen the stage - who came first ?

Matteo Trentin - when Cav's not there, he can get the job done.

well - we'll assume he won't be riding on a broken knee.

Sky are having a nightmare

Ouch! He'll kneed that to be in plaster for a while. He's having a crap year so far. Definitely going to the Vuelta now.

Kennaugh abandoned the tour de suisse just now - not sure why, but more bad news for sky!

And EBH and Cataldo finished 30 minutes down on the stage of the Route du Sud

I doubt they were ever in for the TDF selection after the Giro

How long does it take to recover from a broken knee? Will he be fit for the Vuelta? Even if the knee is healed in time, he'll have lost a lot of training time.

At least when Wiggo broke his collarbone he could still do turbo training to keep his legs in shape.

It's going to be an interesting Tour

At this rate , there'll be a Team Sky recruitment post in here.

Well, I thought he'd have time but it seems not.

I don't know what the procedure is for a fractured patella but it's a bad injury for a cyclist. I've not been able to run or cycle since Feb with patella pain and mine isn't even fractured.
