On that logic.
Geraint Thomas. 2nd at Tourmalet, 10th in Ronde van Vlaanderen,7th in Dauphine ITT, finished in the Top 30 of every stage of the TDF so far, except the stage where he waited for Wiggins.
Edit: Heheh, high five Alakagom

And Roy/Thomas looks better and better, 3,30 will probably be enough, but it all depends on the favourites.
first part..I heard it first time. Rein is at he's best shape

Have to disagree  Thomas
10th Ronde. 5th on sprint stage this TdF and6th on hilly finish first stage and great leadout. Very good time trialer. 23rd Overall Dauphine last year. Good sprint 

Philippe Gilbert: 1st Brabantse Piljs Top10 van Vlandereen 1st Amstel Gold Race 1st LBL 1st Fleche Wallonne. Won giro stages won vuelta stage won tour stage countless times in top10 this season

That's great news then! I love Taaramäe's racing face when he is on his limit, hopefully we'll see that up front on Luz Ardiden  |

Could someone tell me where the fuck is Gilbert going? I thought the era of his pointless attacks to get nothing but TV coverage was over.

I like Geraint Thomas really much but this is some serious overrating going on. Not saying Thomas is a bad allrounder but the best around? not. |

It wasn't meant seriously. I just made that remark, because Roy isn't some contender or well known cyclist, but I see him so many times on TV, and every time it is a different type of race. |

Read my post, I was using I_Mayo's logic to show that Geraint is better than Roy. And what I edited into my post after it got quoted above, I said that the correct answer is probably Gilbert
