    The Ronaldinho of cycling! From battling against Lance Armstrong to battling against the schlek brothers and Chris Froome, attacking everyone at anytime, dancing on his bike none stop on the mountains, Contador is my all time favourite cyclist

      Ive high hopes for Egan Bernal this year😂 I dont think it is a coincidence.....one can imagine the quantity of steroids and otherwise banned substances these long post-op recoveries involve, then the ongoing doctor’s-orders TUEs when they resume racing. 🤷‍♂️

    You need to make a full length documentary on Contador as you did with Sagan. 👍
