Looks like a succesful fishing trip: https://www.bikeforums.net/33-road-bike-racing/121085-lance-armstrong-all-american-freaking-frenchman.html
Sepo's just can't handle sarcasm

Never could, probably never will.

but they can go on for 10 pages about "is wearing a team kit chessy?", times about 100 threads on the subject.

Their reaction's farking hillarious!

I am ashamed to call them my countrymen. Sorry, Lance is just a guy that rides a bike. Only a bit more of an athlete than Andrew Johns. Well, ok, so he's in the game a bit more than Joey, and has a better success rate. But he's still only human. He's also a probably more motivated than your average racer, but look at the backing he's got. Coaches, sponsors, doctors, dieticians, probably a hooker for a post race rub and tug. And if I see one more yellow wristband, I'm gonna be tossin' my bikkies.

Blasphemer!!!!!!!!!! How dare you cast such aspersions against our Joey! I'm going to print that post out and promptly feed it to my ass!

Bugger. All my OV guys let me down. First Petrov gets chucked out for a blood irregularity, Popovych crashes, Menchov pops out the back faster than a vindaloo curry, then Vinekourov runs out of ticker.

Awesome display tho. Thought Rassmussen was spectacular after his escapades on stage nine. Might be an alps special in a year or two once he learns a few tricks.

[edit] Two Hors Cat tonite. McGee is not looking forward to them: "Just starting tomorrow is a scary thought. I don't even like to do the Galibier in training. I've done it five times in races and every time it has gotten the better of me."

Changed my mind. I will be there tonight but won't be participating in the sprints. Well maybe just one.

Chicken looks good to keep the "pois".

Evans waiting for the steeper stuff.

T-Mobile have had it.

Lance = 7

Now that the Tour is over....

Deadwood Series 2 starts on Showtime tonight.

Unmissable television.

time
wuus! i wont be there , have a job interview in Nth sydney this arvo then by the time i get home it will be intervals on the trainer time.....

OI! I'll remember that. I love storing revenge up for later. Wrath is one of my more endearing attributes

I'm on base training for the next 5 weeks, seeing as how I need to lose large quantities of unmoveable lard. So no thrashing about for me for a little while.

Good luck with the interview

this looks like it might be interesting for all you dopey buggers who can't appreciate good bitumen when you see it: www.cycleepic.com.au

maybe next year, a bit too soon... I'm doing the 100km MTB race at Bundanoon in November though, feel free to join me.

I prefer bitumen. I'm touring around Wagga Wagga in November.

got any info?

go to the Wild Horizons website, it's not all up yet but I got the e-mail updates from them, should al be ready soon.

OK i'm in. Training plan starts when I get back from holidays

training plan? oh yeah, mine starts after holidays too, which one I'm not sure yet.

ha no worries,. everyone knows that no one is softer than me.....
hmmm lard, yes i know that one 2 well. i cant seem to get under 79 Ks at the moment though im building up to the WSMTB club champs in august so its more high intesnity stuff so will see how it goes! after august will go back to base for 3 months and maybee do a race here and there till next season.

oh, interview sucked but such is life!

no takers?

Boonen goes down again, and Frigo busted with EPO, an exciting start to the day

and a nice finish by Vino

Curious that he would sell a yellow jersey? i would think that somthing like that is near the pinacle of achievement in the sport. did he only have it for stage 4? he must be on some good $$ so i cant see him needing to sell this stuff to pay the rent. Its not like Alan Jones ( the race car driver) that had to go and sell all his trophies cause he went bankrupt

dunno, he probably got more than one I suppose when he held it, a couple of spares maybe? You wouldn't think he'd need to sell any though, but then again, he probably won't at that price.
