    I'm beginning to feel a little sorry for Michelle Cound. She strikes me as a woman who have up her own career to concentrate of Chris Froome's. Now that might make her happy but she just strikes me as a bored intelligent woman and this is the result.

    I certainly do not think she is intelligent.

    He has just won a hard fought out Giro at an age Froome was fetching bottles. May have been nice to congratulate him rather then try and draw him in to her murky World.

    She really is a piece of work. Here is hoping that Froome gets rolled over big time in le Dauphine.

    Froome breaking Col de la Madone record in the news today. Old news: it was in @CyclingAnthol Vol III by @nedboulting

    Yes, I to would like to join the campaign to find the OP and get this thread title sorted out.

    If not I think a new thread should be started with a correct title.

    Clearly Froome is not going to stop looking at stems any time soon.

    Armstrong's time up the Col de la Madone is hardly comparable as he was unlikely to be at red blood cell capacity when trying.

    First pic, the only pro not looking at a stem is Contador.

    One of a kind. Loves his stem enough to set it free.

    I think Froome is just envious of Contador's power output even when he isn't moving

    Didn't he have a bike change? So he's actually pining for his original stem in that photo! "You just can't give me what she gave me *sniff*"

    I know I'm RAAM obsessed... but Shermer's neck is starting to hit some riders hard - we need to get one of these for Froomie:
