Any fans of the TdF here?
Yes.
YES!
It is much better then the tour de toona. That is a local bike race that ever since I was a child I hated because the name sounds so stupid. To me it always sounded like it had something inappropriate to do with investigating fish a little to thourghly. I just thought I’d add that it’s not all good with the tour de france, it’s inspired run down former cities to name their bike race something stupid. I thought hey say the worst thing you can about the tour de france and then it’s all gravy after that. Only the good parts left.
I’ve read in article in Bicycling about Armstrongs training with Allan Lim and they are really stretching things to the very limit. The setup of Lance’s bike was done in an air tunnel, he carries ice packs to lower blood temperature, eat rice cakes for stamina and what not. I’m afraid to punish a “well matured” body like that can’t be good. But he is all set to win for the 8th time. Good luck to him! @ bob, I agree with you, only good parts left! Contador is my favourite but apparently he is a stubborn kid who does not listen to team orders and that might cost him the victory. Sometimes it’s OK not to be up front as today’s horrible crash showed. Those who were back in the peleton escaped injuries. Our guy Robbie Hunter is an arrogant bastard and I don’t like him at all. I saw him spitting another rider in the face out of pure spite. And we have better riders than him in SA, he’s been beaten quite often here. It’s still early days and things will only get sorted in the last week or so. Not to worry yet. I love it!!!
can you imagine how good lance armstrong would be if his name was lance legstrong
then he’d be good at something that involves armstrength.
…don’t talk about testicles!
I think Lance Armstrong can call it a day after today’s stage. To me it seems as if Andy Schleck is the guy to watch this year.
I like Kraftwerk.
