Do you know anything about this race?

I didn't think so.
No, of course not. Tour of California: yes. Het Nieuwsblad : no. However the cycling press covered it.

And when I post pathetic results from my own racing, phardy will have even more evidence of how bad Cervelo bicycles are.

Just think about how epic the domination would be if they were riding real bikes, like Motobecanes or Neuvations.

I got shelled in my race on Sunday. I'm convinced it was my inferior S2 and the whacky cables.

Wow, funny thread!

It ain't about the bike (unless the bike is a rustbucket) - it's about the engine!

Basta! Last word....clear the house and put the flamethrowers back on the wall! :-)

If Cervelos were such great bikes wouldn't the Cervelo Test Team do better? I believe that this is a legitimate question.



My five year-old believes in the tooth-fairy; maybe
we should schedule a monitored play-date for you two.

what a crap season they've had.

during the Vuelta they said that Cervelo had more wins by different riders than any other team this year. i guess being a well rounded team doesnt get you very far.
