My wife thinks Ivan Basso is sexy.

I put up an entire picture thread dedicated to Basso in the girls' forum. I think he is DEFINITELY the hottest male cyclist, followed by Dave Z.
Lance has great eyes, but he has kind of a "hard" look to him that doesn't do it for me.

Though I hate saying these types of things, I do find Basso and Dave Z to be attractive... eerrrr.. handsome fellows. LA looks too rough and hardened. Maybe gaining weight like sincitycycler's wife said will make him look a little better.

I think (and the wife agrees) that Basso is a pretty good looking guy. In "Lance Armstrong's War" (book), he's described as looking like a seminarian!
Edit: Poll? I don't see a poll!

My wife is a Basso luster also. Generally she thinks cyclist are skinny wimpy types (she's been giving me flak ever since I dropped 17lbs) but she does like the Basso!!!

Basso and Paolo Bettini (he's got this little boy charm). LA, yeah, nice eyes but too hard looking.
Benard Hinault in the day was quite a looker!

There's nothing more boring than men who refuse to acknowledge when another man is good looking. It shows huge insecurity. I think male cyclists are pretty secure in their masculinity!

I asked my 8 year old daughter if she thought Basso was good looking, she just rolled her eyes and said "OH YEAH!!!!!"
I've now got her locked up in her room until she's 42.
