Team United is at the front, but Dominguez is sitting in the middle of the peloton, why would he not be at te very end of the pace line taking it easy and away from trouble???

Hahahaha, I was riding with Dominguez last Thursday, and he was saying how sh*tty his legs felt and that he didn't think he was going to do well in Georgia...

...so much for that. I hope he can keep the Yellow for a while.

True dat! But being a typical roadie, the first thing i think of after i hitting the deck is if my bike is ok. As soon as I regain conciousness my thoughts immediately turn to how much its gonna cost me.

Its a good thing this feed is free. I would not pay money for this. We may be catching up on the bike end of the pro thing, but our production values for TV coverage are waaaaay behind what the euros are doing.

Seriously. My body is covered by insurance. The bike? not so much.

Really?

Mine (bike, that is) falls under my home owners insurance. And when the bike is on the car my car insurance covers my bike.

Not necessarily a bad thing.

Yeah but my insurance covers me in a crash. Homeowners/auto insurance doesn't cover the bike if I slide out in a turn or get crashed by some non-BF reading n00b.
