Awesome. Shoot me an email with any details once everything is more solidified and we'll get that ****er set up!

On a totally unrelated note: When I come to the forum I always have to click "Last Page" in order to get to the most recent stuff - is there any way to edit preferences to have the most recent posts shown first?

When you click on the thread link "Toronto Fixed"; assuming you are already logged in. It will take you to the last post you have not read since your last login.

Assuming that you don't get impatient and cancel.

Keith I'm liking the cut of your jib. This way the fastest riders from each team would be assigned the farthest checkpoints. So the slower riders...myself incl wouldn't feel useless. I liiike. Gold Jerry GOLD!!!! We'll sit down later so I make sure I gots what your sayin'. This way it a team ride on the streets (which really is the way it should run), isn't all grouped up like a giant accident waiting to happen. hmmmm
I'm an East Sider... Give me a short checkpoint... I think I can handle that...

I'm still loving my Shimano SH-MP66 shoes, which I think Urbane still sells.

https://bike.shimano.com/catalog/cycl...=1185292148183

Man.. Shimano's website is the worst thing ever.


Matt: you can also just bookmark either of these.. they'll take you directly to the last page or the last post respectively:

I think we might have to goto the video replay judges for a ruling.

Ronin...hopefully we can get the sites to allow you select your class.
Matt.... we can PHP and such yes?

Cripes. I don't get why people do this **** when they *know* they're going to get tested if they win anything. What's the point of cheating if you can't cheat AND win? Not to mention the bad press they're giving to their own sport. ugh.

Who came in 2nd in the TT and yesterday's stage? I can't remember. I don't want to get on the Tour website because I don't want to see who won today's stage.

oh right! duh.

Stage 13 (TT): Cadel Evans
Stage 15: Kim Kirchen

ps. I heard two different news anchors on different channels pronounce Cadel as "CAY-del" within a few minutes of each other. Then again, I've been listening to Bobke butcher nearly everything for two weeks and he's supposed to know all about cycling.

Bob Roll! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=js23eIWSmL0)

As a lawyer, I'm all about cheating. But seriously, if you're going to blood dope take your own blood out. The reason he got caught was he used someone else's blood.
