Team Time Trial

KevGuinness

Everything else being equal, if the final stage was a team time trial instead of individual, would A.S have been the winner of the tour this year?

But everything else wouldn't have been equal. Contador would have attacked more in the mountains to build up a gap.

I'm bored of this now

If Andy Schleck had ridden on a motorbike instead of a bicycle the result would have been different.

If Alberto Contador had grown feathers and danced the funky chicken every night, the result would have been different

If Christian Prudhomme decided not to bother racing and the winner would be decided on who can make the best cake, the result would have been different.

None of these things happened, so the result is the way it is. Get over it

I like the cake idea, that's the true spirit of cycling.





Mmmm cake.

But what if Contador had responded with a tap dance routine? Who would be the most fatigued and would there be an increased risk of injury?

The only thing you need to worry about when you are tap dancing is falling in the sink!
