for walkers to stop them stomping across all the mountain which is a big nature reserve with over 1000 plant and animal species.
it connects the different monitoring stations and communications towers/transmitters that are up there

All the doping chat is just getting really boring, especially when people never say anything about convicted dopers like our Spanish chums and just attack sky every time they put in a good performance. These are the same people that complain sky ride without soul etc, as soon as they attack they're on drugs.Rundfahrt wrote:It's interesting to note two things in this thread:
1) How people immediately go to personal attacks and insults in their first response to any person who even discusses anything possibly negative about Sky or Froome. Imagine the response if the doubters acted the same way.
2) How people like adr82 get all worked up about doping talk when it is against sky/froome, but say nothing when it is defending them.
You have absolutely no evidence that any of them have doped, it's all based on some internet warrior's interpretation of some times that may or may not have been measured from the same spot in the same wind conditions in different temperatures etc.
Since sky are so closely connected with team GB they must also all be on drugs as well obviously. What a load of old cr@p, just try and enjoy the race.
Anyway I'm more concerned about Quintana, no way he's 23...

But you refuse to engage when anybody questions your insinuations. Don't tell me, show me.
Its like Lance has been tested a billion times and never failed a test

What's spanish for Tactics ? maybe someone better tell movistar how to plan an attack rather than telephone it to sky and the entire cycling world... looking forward to more keystone cops shenanigans in the alps from the spaniards.0

Next stages will probably be better as multiple climbs should give more or an opportunity to put pressure on Sky. Today, with just one climb at the end was always gonna be tough**************************************************

Great stage. Everything I hoped for. Breakaway, lots of Movistar on the front. A war of attrition on the lower slopes. Who will drop off next? Are the Sky guys up to it or will they cave in again? Porte back to his best but Bertie is still watching. Well we all saw it. Whats not to like about a battle on the Ventoux?0

it's interesting but I think both Pete and Porte seemed to come to a halt the second they pulled off today, hopefully learning from last week...We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence
