Quintana fanboy. Quintana very far from the best climber in all three weeks, maybe in the last week, when he is no longer a panty in the overall standings or opponent is Aru and Uran.
For me:
1: Froome
2: Contador
-------------------Big distance-------------------
3: Nibali in the first two weeks. Quintana in the last week.
Yes, or the opponents are Froome, Contador and Purito.... Unless you obviously think he has declined since 2013 which would be stupid.
Contador or Froome will probably with T-A, but that doesnt make my argument any weaker. Im still convinced that Quintana will win in July because I feel like he is the best climber in the 3rd week. Quintana loser with 5min. Hi is the world best #Fanboy logic.
Quintana will lose with 5min again... |

He lost 4.30 on the timetrials.
But it wont matter anyways, I just hope your stupid ass gets banned soon. The amount of retarded trolling you did on a daily basis on fmfreaks on the cycling forum.. please prevent that from happening here as well. |

Fanboy or not, you have to admit that Quintana is the best natural climber of the lot. But he's not at his peak yet, compared to the other 3 GC contenders. Cycling is a sport where you achieve your peak later than in most other sports and he's only 25 compared to all the others being at least 29 if I'm not wrong.
It'll be interesting to see him against the other 3 that are at the peak of their careers and see what he can do. |

I am really surprised about the amount of arguing about this topic already before the first real duel in 2015.
Pretty sure is that those are all some of the very best. And if rider A or rider B is a bit better is quite subjective as well. You probably can't judge if the form is 100% the same or if the legs on a specific day are good. So it doesn't really need to argue about this topic.
In football you could also argue without an end about who is the best player. Ronaldo, Messi and some might say Robben, Lahm or Neymar. It's just not possible that all have the same opinion neither is any opinion 100% correct or even a fact.
Let's just wait for those mountain fights and expect some stages with A winning, some with B and others with C just like we already saw in Andalucia.

Big news, with Froome out. I think Konig will lead now.

Actually this is one of the reasons i am not even checking cycling threads regulary this year. And that is with fact that i am known for fanboying and arguments. 
Now we have pages of bollocks even before the race, i dont have so much time to read interesting ideas in pool of nonsense.
Froome pulls out of the race? I suppose SKY fucked up the doping program for him, so he needs some rest.
Now it will be interested to see if König will get the leaders role. I hope not, i want to see him as domestique whole year, when he cant choose team where he will be 100% leeader or team that is not so shabby.

+1.
Seems like Sky Software need to patch Froome.exe after too much RAM usage in Vuelta Andalucia. |

How can you be surprised about that? I mean, its really not that much and considering that the four best stage riders in our generation will meet for this particular race (at least until Froome decided not to), it is to be expected people will argue back and forth, even before the race has started. Unless you guys obviously had expected arguments for the region's finest wines in in pre-race discussions
I should also remind myself regularly about not reading or at least giving two fucks about Avin's posts. They are always in some shape or form blasting me, calling the discussion pages of bullocks and a pool of nonsense. Again, I find it natural that we in a T-A thread on a cycling forum before the first real duel bring arguments up for and against those four riders. |

Same shit like last year with Froome. He seems to love pulling out of T-A in last minute. I'd have liked to see some epic early season racing with the big four involved.

I wouldn't actually mind if the first time they all face each other is le Tour, provided that no one crashes out this year.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Spoiler What? I barely know who you are from cycling discussions and i was not certainly blasting you, nor i remember i ever have. If i blasted someone, it was usually isso or Kirchen_75 and even that was also in friendly manner, nothing personal for me. Also i dont remember speaking about cycling discussions here as bollocks or pool of nonsense before today and that was reference to 2015 only...but thanks for your opinion on my posts, at least i know why i should stay away from these threads before any sort of ingore function gets introduced.
