No, but a 150km solo to win Sarthe is a hint.
How much? Odds? Ex needs some money for new cleats. Kid has proven his durability in grand tours. I take your top ten money and we can talk the over/under on top 5.
You are DS for Columbo. Do you wear your guys out working for Cavendish over the next few stages, or aim for the jersey?

You are one sad individual. I feel sorry for you. With all the vitriol you put forth, it must suck to live your life.

Anyone ride this region? I'd imagine plenty of you have done so. Stories?

Naples has some pretty rough edges I hear. A Maradona video I have from his heyday in Napoli show a pretty manic bunch of fans in the stadium and some bleak looking neighborhoods where a lot of the fans came from.
After reading what Levi was saying about the great views and crazy, narrow roads on today's stage, I can't help but wonder if Lance was distracted by the view on that righthander where he crashed.

At least they only took my cash! The military actually painted a big wide yellow line down the middle of several streets in downtown Naples and said, "On this side of the line we take care of you, on the other side we don't." I was young and stupid and crossed the line.

Menchov is making it look easy. Can't help but think there's fire in that Rabobank blood doping story smoke. After years of those stories, I can't help it.

Easy? Have you been watching this race? The last days in the mountains Menchov looked like he was about to fall off his bike staying on DiLucas wheel. That man was in serious pain. Compared to look on Armstrong's face using your example he looks more like a doper than Menchov...and we all know that's impossible right?

So they are racing past Monte Cassino. Those guys who fought there knew how to HTFU. Totally gruesome battle that went on for a long time.
