Hmmm......someone wants to show off that they know how to translate a bit of French, methinks.


Robbie's the coolest. Get him up here, I wanna boof him!!!

Bernucci pulls a "Bradbury"

Grouse finish!

Stacks of dudes stack in the wet on the last corner, and this relative unknown
stays upright to take the win with Vinokourov breathing down his neck (out of frame).

For a couple of minutes, Liggett and Sherwin didn't even know who he was

Mengin was leading for a bazillion miles, and looked like he was gunna steal a podium pozzy from the sprinters, but he was the first to crash.

Mengin, unlucky... and P&P were only just boasting about his cyclo-cross skills making for a great bike handler in these conditions.

Nice to see Robbie and Tom chatting it up like good mates on the way in.

Havn't you seen the transcripts of their chat?

Robbie: Tom you would look much better in red spots, green's not really your colour! Look even Dekkers had a stint..?
Tom: F*%$ off & stop trying to get your face in my magazine covers!

Robbie's suntan this year is set to rival Miguelon in his heyday....impressive.

BWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHARRRRR. It's even funnier if you give tom's line a thick Belgian accent. Or worse a really thick Finnish accent

stand by....

Shall I do it for ya?

Let's see......hmm......19" hams.....must = 35" pins...um......2200lbs?

bugger me.....there's a lot of crap on there. Can't be arsed reading the whole thing.

I know a guy who trains as a power lifter, and occasionally competes in the under 90kg class.

Shortly after starting to ride to work 3 times a week (only from Glen Iris to the city), he added 2 reps to most of his heavy leg exercises!!

he can't understand it either

Hey 531, check out the crank length on this bewdy.

must be lennard zinn's

I'm in awe of PLs. Those guys can shift some serious weight.

375lbs squats???!!!!!

I used to blow a colon doing 200!! I quit legs after 3 months; too much hard work.
nothing harder than squats -- maybe running maximum 400m efforts

That's nothing. Rousseau could max on 650lb.

I can remember an article where Arnie is talking about his puny calves and he was using 250lbs on the calf raise machine... he trained with reg park who was using 1000lbs or something ridiculous... within 1 month Arnie was up there.....

All in the head I say...

Any of you blokes familiar with the Wagga-Albury course?

Wagga to Mangoplah to Cookardina to Culcaine to Walla Walla to Albury

Any nastiness other than the rail crossing?

AS always had an issue with his calves. A lot of his early posing photos have him standing in water or long grass.

But doing donkey raises with Dave Draper and Lou Ferrigno sitting on your back will fix that....

He cut the legs off all his gym pants so he couldnt help but see his weakness and fix it.

I just cut the legs off all my suit pants... not sure what they will say in the office on Monday?

funny.


I just try and fit into my 34" slacks to remind me of my weak point.

you guys see this?
