It is one thing if you are Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps setting world records and new standards at international events, while also still losing every now and then.
Its another thing if you just rip everyone to pieces in a grand tour, making it predictable and not competitive for first place. I think I would have hated it less if Contador had never been acused of doping. But since he has, my mind can't imagine a scenario where someone as utterly dominant as he isn't on something.
The lack of an actual race for first place ruined the Giro for me this year. Hopefully someone can take him on in the Tour, if he is allowed to race.
Does anyone out there like watching one person continually go unchallenged and thus enjoyed the Giro because of Contadors clear superiority? (aside from perhaps CW)
