Cycling Tour de France 2008 Part 5

[@citizensallianceaustralia2025]

One of the best stages in Tour history. When ever a person who knows nothing about cycling says you are joking when you claim cycling is a team sport, just pull this stage out on your phone and tell them to take a look at this! Great tactics from very strong team!

Imagine if you told Phil and Paul that Chris froome would win 2 tours

[@lsaaclazo641]

I mean this was his first tour

[@bfdzvalable]

18 miles, 1.5 hours of climbing!? 🥴😵😳 Sheesh!!

[@anunaybiswas1]

1:57:41 Chris froome.

[@MrMcdob]

Go Jimmy Casper!

[@KingNoob13]

1:57:40 Chris Froome dropped. Maybe not doping is those days.

Ninad Chodankar you are absolutely wright

[@JoeBleasdaleReal]

Erm...no. He was 24 at his first tour on a wildcard team.

[@abone2pick]

Most of the greats don't even finish their first tour

[@JoeBleasdaleReal]

He was 24 riding for a wildcard team. Shut up.

It's actually interesting to see that Froome didn't come from nowhere, he's actually doing pretty well for a relatively novice rider doing his first Tour. Makes his subsequent performance more believable imo.
