Tour de France 2014

Interviewed on ITV4, it sounds as though he's focusing on stage races first, classics second next year.

I don't think he can win either to be honest. Years spent Team Pursuiting and then doing roughly the same thing in the Sky train have left him without a kick/change of pace and a lack of racing tactics.

I hope Kennaugh get's out of Sky pronto, and the Yates' don't go anywhere near Brailsford before they get cloned into bunch engines.

Once they lost Froome and then Porte went backwards they were utterly clueless on what to do. They just had no-one capable of winning a stage in the hills or on the flats. Too much tiding to tempo and their power meters methinks.

As an aside, anyone see Eisel's little come-get-me to Cav on the Lemond show? He said he felt like he should be involved in the sprint, and that he was thinking of Cav and leading him out in the past, and how much he wished he had being doing that today.
