To suggest they limped through the run because they aren't / weren't fleet feeted like Frodeno is pretty disrespectful. .I didn't say this? I can't find in my post where I said people limp because they are not fleet footed?
I just don't get the hype over fast riders who burn themsleves for the run.
I DO get the hype over fast riders who run well - see Stadler, Kienle, Frodeno, Van Lierde, Raelert.. there are many. It's impressive.
Starycowicz for me is an example of the fist instance - the odd great race, but more often than not there's hype followed by crash and burn and a load of excuses.
