Contador vs. Cavendish

Contador wins Tour De France overall.
Contador spends next 6 months talking about a steak he ate.

Cavendish does well in Tour De France in sprinting.
Cavendish spends next 6 months dating Peta Todd.

I say Cav wins.


side note, i won't link you to anything related to Peta Todd, but know that if you google her with the Safe Search off, you shall get NSFW results.

I don't think Zabel gets the attention that he deserves. Didn't he win the most green jersey's at the Tour Dee France?

I'm not sure of the stats but he finished the tours that I watched while the "big stars" like Cipo sat it out on the side of the road.

------------------from wikipedia

Erik Zabel (born July 7, 1970 in East Berlin) is a former German professional road bicycle racer who last raced with Milram. With over 200 professional wins he is considered by some[1] one of the greatest German cyclists and best cycling sprinters of history. Zabel won a record nine points classifications in grands tours including wearing the final green jersey in the Tour de France a record six consecutive years between 1996 to 2001 and the points jersey at the Vuelta a Espańa in 2002, 2003 and 2004. Zabel won the Milan – San Remo four times and numerous six-day track events.

In cycling, I'm sure Landis was awesome without doping, but he was even better with. Same would hold true in this case.
