Glad I could offer up a good laugh for you... now, I can breath a cy of relief... People just don't realize when they say next to nothing on their profile, new posters are left wondering in cases such as this...

In an article in Cycle Sport, Hincapie said he loves to go shoe-shopping in spain. Is that the best he could find? ewww.

Sorry, no heterosexual man would wear those shoes. Okay, maybe in Europe.

He is almost certainly gay and he's almost certainly not the only gay cyclist. Not that there's anything wrong with it! But he's still a major hunk. He just needs to find better shoe stores!

Just a quick correction - I think the above is spelled "Je ne sais quoi" or pretty close to this. Not being critical, just thought you'd like to know.

Hot sandals, George!

Those feet are worth a million bucks!

Okay, I'm pretty open minded about men's footwear but those look like woman's sandals. I have some sandals/shoes that are very comfortable and I guess around here would be considered European and most N.E. men would not wear them but I would definitely not wear those large woman's sandals. Hey, to each his own. If he likes them, that's all that counts.

Those Oakley's (Racing Jackets) are coolio! I was very very close to getting some, but 165 bucks is a little steep. Plus there are only two colors to select from, how boring. I'm going to get some Rudy's or Spy's.

Don't judge a man by his feet.....

Thanks Stor Mand. I quit taking french after grade 8 when it was no longer mandatory, so I was winging it! I knew it just didn't look right, but what the hay.....you still figured it out!

I remember my sister telling me (about 35 years ago) that "Je ne sais quoi" (or however you spell it) meant something like, "I don't know what."

So, George's sandals might have that certain, "I don't know what."



(You Canadians ought to be able to correct me on this...)

Yup, though I'm just learning French, it means "I don't know what". Though wouldn't it be more corrent if written "Je ne sais pas quoi"?

That is a rare find, even in the US.
