This is why the Darwin Ice hockey team are 6 time world champions. They don't have an ice rink, or skates, but every year they send letters to all the NHL teams in the states inviting them to the world championships in darwin...every year, no-one turns up....(except the darwin team), QED...darwin are the world champs. They have a barbie & a piss-up on the beach to celebrate there win!.......Its a huge celebration.......(what this has to do with this thread, i don't know...but hey......trivial crap is trivial crap, no matter where it's posted)
Alright... I am officially inviting all the Pro riders out there to come attend the World Cycling Championships in Arlington, TX (Thursday at 4:00pm). Be there or miss your chance at the title...

Climbing specialists are a unique lot.
Although I never got to 'know' Virenque through the years, one of the lasting images of this year's tour was his tutoring a struggling Voeckler up one of the mountains to retain yellow.
He, like Barry Bonds will likely join the legends in spite of themselves.
Bahamontes is already there.
