  • How does he feel about the earpiece through which his DS would have told him Froome was coming back and to attack again? Does that remove the drama?

  • So much this. You can't pick and choose your tech, and it's not as if Quintana and Valverde don't use power meters. Put your money where your mouth is and ditch them yourselves first.

    There is this prevalent yearning for the racing of yesteryear but unless you lock road-racing into some sort of time capsule like Keirin it isn't going to happen, and any such moves will be blocked by the bike sponsors anyway.

  • Why can't you pick and choose your tech? Not all tech has the same effect.

  • All sorts of flaws in this logic.

    • Why would they willingly disadvantage themselves, it's all about everyone not using them.
    • & just saying that we shouldn't have power meters is not asking anyone to lock cycling in a time capsule. Are there any other sports (other than motor-racing) where athletes get such precise data on their performance/thresholds etc?
