Talk:BMC
Latest comment: 7 years ago by Dick Kimball
I came across the following in my daily news feed from Mail.com in an item about the riders who will be competing in the 2017 Tour de France:
- <quote>
- RICHIE PORTE
- Age: 32
- In his first attempt at the Tour de France as a leader, Froome's former top lieutenant ended fifth last year.
- The Australian will be the sole leader at BMC in July, with his eyes on the top prize. Porte has won the Tour Down Under and the Tour de Romandie this season. He was runner-up at the Criterium du Dauphine behind surprise winner Jakob Fuglsang.
- Main assets: Time trial, climbing.
- Question marks: Does Porte have the mental toughness to become a Tour winner?
