Haven't seen this sort of form since the ban.

Be interesting if he can carry this form into a French race if so odds on Froome for the Tour should drift considerably.

He was very impressive wasn't he?

Extremely. Reminded me Of Floyd when he clawed back that 8 mins on Peireira in 2006?

It could be just a super day with no real opposition there, but it was one of those 'oh no' moments.

Froome has had far more impressive performances. Every top cyclist is on something. It's been that way for 100 years.

I've never seen Froome do anything near that.

Burn off your rivals on all early climb, time trial away from a group of favourites working together and then still jump at the end?

What makes it worse for me is that Tinkov was all over Twitter beforehand telling the world that we were going to see a show. Good legs?

You guys' hatred for Bertie is pathetic. He is one of the all time greats and it's brilliant to see him return to form after a wretched year.

Froome almost crashed into the TV motorbike he is going so fast up Mont Ventoux and yet no one on here is suspicious. hmmmmmmmm. Only man looked to be on beef last year and it wasn't Bertie!!!

I haven't made my mind up about Froome, I think his performances and his improvement is suspicious to say the least. His average speed in his tdf win was faster than three of Armstrong's wins.

Horner's Vuelta performance screamed doper to me, as did Pozzovivo's time trial. Bertie's performance in Tirreno-Adriatico beggared belief. I'd love him to be clean but I just don't believe it.
