I feel like chicken tonight.

He looked good on the Alpe. Team responsiblities are likely to hold him back though

There's only one colour for shorts. BLACK.

Yeah, but he's now dropped Casar and Valdj-whatever and is out in front.

Now I wanna see someone jump off the front of the peloton and put Landis in the hurt-box.

......personally I'll never use Maquarie bank, skins or buy a renault in protest. I've already added to Avanti's coffers...but I promise I won't wash it in protest!

Well, if the corporations actually used the smaller more affordable and innovative designers, they'd not blow their load on one advert that loses it's impact after the second viewing, but three of four actually interesting ones.

Anyway, I can't complain. Gives me time to deposit the useless part of all this sav blanc I'm drinking.

Sadly, no bree and baguettes though.

yes but it's quite hard to get your 'conforming to the natural break syndrome' rhythm right

Call me weird, but I have this strange feeling Landis will DNF coz of the ol' hipster.

Sastre, the man with the dummy, going hard.

Nice result for chicken, what an absolute legend!

Floyd's boat has sunk. Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

Morning fella's, bad review was for a Merida. Something about the rear end and bottom bracket swaying like towel on a Hills Hoist on a windy day.

That's the one.

Jock - we are talking about a controversial bike review from a few years ago in 'Ride'

This is awsome. SWMBO could not understand it but i was one happy boy this morning when i saw that Cadel had kicked some Flanders assos.

Kloden and Menchov to crack n fail tonight, Cadel to use the twin pillars of doom to make road widows of them all!

almost feel like offering around some tissues when i go and read the TDF sub forum
