I really wish Froome wasn't a bike racer.
It's like watching a cat swim.
Pleasant guy, but I feel his style has only gotten fuglier

Froome is right behind Schleck as my favorite!
We can't all look like... whoever a natural-looking rider is!

What annoys me about the Schlecks is while I'm watching any race on NBC Sports, the French National Champ will ride by, then the German, the English, followed by the World Champ. Not a peep. Then, Frank Schleck rolls by and Phil Liggett practically has a heart attack screaming FRANK SCHLECK, CHAMPION OF LUXEMBOURG...(add Liggett cliche). I didn't know being champion of a psuedo country was that big a deal, but apparently it is.
My favorite this Vuelta is Joaquin Rodriguez. I never cared for Froome after his dealings with Wiggins, which to an extent is unfair, because we'll never really know who the antagonizer was.

i really wonder if it has to do with sky's scientific approach to racing.. like he's on a trainer all year besides races and only focuses on hitting power targets.

Yesterday's finish was awesome! I love watching Froome Vs Contador on a climb. Froome looks even more awkward when next to Contador dancing on the pedals, but is somehow climbing almost as well!

the TT ended this Vuelta on a very anti-climactic note
the last riders basically just tried not to crash; stooopid
stick with parade circuits Senor Organizers
