He's Just not Doping - TDF 2011

Quote today from Eurosport:
46km - Philippe Gilbert believes that Alberto Contador is not suffering, but bluffing. In his latest video chat with Eurosport, the Belgian gives his views on who's looking good in the Pyrenees. Gilbert: Contador is bluffing.

Sorry Philippe, I am buying it. I think he's just not on his doping regime. But that's not the big one for me - It' that he's not smart enough to pull this off. He's not a tactically smart rider as we have learned in past Tour's or in the Giro. He can't listen to the voice in his ear and rides how he wishes to ride, no matter the comments/suggestions from his Director.
Two Nicknames I heard this week: Dopador and Contadoper.
Yesterday's Stage 12 however was exciting.
