I bet on TJVG. Probably a bad choice but the odds were good.

Oh man I never get tired of being annoyed at the Eurosport moron after all these years
Monfort attacks.
Good commentator: "Is that Kiserlovski?"
Awful commentator, with a "what are you, an idiot?" tone: "No, that's a Radioshack rider"
Good commentator: "Kiserlovski's on Radioshack now"
Awful commentator: "uhh....well....uhh...obviously"
I'm still amazed he wasn't fired after the police caught him as part of an investigation on a doping trafficking network.

Westra looks pretty much in last years shape, going on climbs without breathing, returning to the front even after flat tires and missing corners...
If he has a good day tomorrow he'll win, or at least get 2nd behind Quintana |

It would be great if this thread would be mainly about this race.
You are free to discuss rider stupidity and habits in any other thread (except the Tirreno thread).
So it is better to create the new thread "Gesink and doping"? I doubt that, that would be closed rather quickly by admin i believe. And it is connected to this race, so why not, you can just browse further if not interested...

Wait, some really think Westra can be up there on the MTF? Well, he can, but this would stink, Westra turning climber suddenly (last year it was not so mountanious i believe).
I think Quintana, Talansky, Gesink maybe and Tejay. Wonder how Velits will do on that climb, or if he turned completly into the TT specialist.

De Gendt will maybe try an attack with 14 minutes down on the GC. Or he may do that tomorrow, though. |

1. De Gendt
2. De Clercq
3. Monfort
4. Keukeleire
5. Boeckmans
...
DNF Gesink
DNF Westra
Spoiler Obvious troll is obvious. Gesink has a good chance.
The only bet I'll make is that De Gendt will be in the breakaway.

Not at all I just lost faith on cleaning cycling at a top level. Christophe Bassons never doped, he rode for Festina. Don't make assumptions based on nothing. Be critical when there is evidence, being cynical is just as ignorant.
I think the one been ignorat is u. Have u forgotten about the article on NRC Handelsblad about Rabobank doping from 1996 to 2012. What more evidence do u want. Denial doesnt give the reason.
That article said doping till 2007.
It was only mistranslated by Lequipe.fr (french who can't translate).
So don't be a retard and GTFO please. Moron
Wow dude calm down. U look like a hysterical housewive protecting her husband. Take it easy. |

Why do I click on a 'Paris Nice' thread and get directed to some fools argument about the d''''' word rather than Paris Nice.
Seriously, this website seems full of people who only talk about d'''''. If these people really liked cycling, every other message wouldn't be about d''''' despite it being in the news a decent amount.
Seems to me these people just talk about d''''' and create a general negative atmosphere as a means of a coping mechanism to cover up the inadequacies they probably possess as people.
On the other hand, it's been good reading the Paris Nice related stuff. |

Well, people on this site generally tend to think that treating even the word "doping" like a forbidden one is a main factor that brought us in this situation, and that it's best to get it all out of the system and head for a fresh start, rather than to keep on and pretend like nothing happens.
Also, you might want to be careful about insulting people. Compared to other forums I know, this one is very civilized and has a good atmosphere.

Lost that one...
De Clercq has reconnoitred Montagne de Lure with Google Earth. =D
Quintana has a flat tire on (before?) Col de Mûrs.

Seems like Movistar is having a lot of bad luck in this race, Costa out, Quintana fall down yesterday and now he has a flat tire uphill and have lost contact with the peloton. |
