Yeah Ullrich's legs look awesome there....he is also pumped up pretty good. My legs are much stronger looking than ullrichs if equally pumped up(then again I'm a bodybuilder)

130 lb bench press is downright feminine (high school female athletes (granted they were taller basket ball players)did more than this I swear). Trust me. I know you could put up more than that....you just haven't tried it.
I don't know what world you live in but being 6' 2" 211lbs is big. I am in the gym at least 4 days a week and have been a regular member for 3 years. The number of people I see that are your size can hardly put up over 275lbs. 385lbs would probably crush most pro cyclists in a bench press. Most of them have low bone density because of all the non-impact training they do.
