Anatomy of a Photo: Take a Look While You Still Can

FDJ guy: Is that the new fizik Kurve in Bull?

Fast Phil: Oui.

FDJ guy: Mind if I have a look?

Fast Phil: Do it while you can because it’ll be blowing past you later.

Marko

Marko lives and rides in the upper midwest of the States, Minnesota specifically. "Cycling territory" and "the midwest" don't usually end up in the same sentence unless the conversation turns to the roots of LeMond, Hampsten, Heiden and Ochowitz. While the pavé and bergs of Flanders are his preferred places to ride, you can usually find him harvesting gravel along forest and farm roads. He owes a lot to Cycling and his greatest contribution to cycling may forever be coining the term Rainbow Turd.

Next time let's. Hit reply instead of quote, shall we? Once is too much already.

i really wanted to add something pithy, but all those pictures of cipollini have rendered me confused and angry like an old man trying to return soup at a deli

@wiscot

So I'm guessing that my black and white spotted "Holstein" gear is a no go?

Maybe Andy Schleck should focus on the riding.

Proving that the rule about the colour of shorts is entirely valid.

Are we not doing a Paris-Nice VSP??

I see the Schleckii twins are doing that

Finally we're getting back to Eurosport TV sensory overload and marital strain levels of bike racing coverage again, at long last

Yes we are! It will be going up later today. Thanks!

A wise, if a little eccentric and pointlessly tall, middle-aged sage once told me, "You can never be reminded too often"

@Dr C
Back to arguing over what has priority on the sky+ box; Come Dine With Me, East Enders, anything cycling related, Pony Club or Pair of Kings. To be fair the kids don't argue about it too much, not because they don't care but because the bulk of deletion goes on after their bedtime.

@Chris
sounds like there is no argument to be had there

@frank
is someone going to let Ron know? He seems to be viewing the site at the moment, but maybe a quick phone call to him might avoid recurrent bitter disappointment come the end of the Day 1 TT??

@Dr C
I'm sure that if we shared a sky+ box it wouldn't be an argument but Mrs Chris doesn't really get anything that doesn't require contestants to be voted off either by a panel of judges or the public. I suppose that could be why she did rather enjoy the elimination Women's Omnium Elimination race from the recent track racing from the Olympic Velodrome.
