    2012 Tour of Utah, Stage 5, Park Center to Snowbird, 162.8 Km

    Coverage is Amateurish Some thoughts for all of the followers. The Tracker is a great alternative to zero TV or live update coverage. That being said, how come the management of UTAH allow amateur camera work and commentators? We're already disappointed with having to watch the last corner...

    Team Saxo Bank with a new bank co-sponsor?

    Billionaire's Boys Club BMC, Sky and now Saxo/Tinkoff are bankrolled by billionaires. Not a bad trend. Just think if Paul Allen, Mark Cuban and Larry Ellison wanted to burn some of their annual interest income on a WT team and get all the exposure each July.

    Two Brits Lead the Tour de France

    Sky Envy Sky is in an eviable position with 1 & 2 in GC. Yet they're taking hits on all fronts except from rival teams. Journalists criticize them to fabricate drama while some fans either question their fair play or who their leader should be. The team's stars seem aligned in the Sky this...

    2012 Tour de France: Stage 11: Albertville → La Toussuire - Les Sybelles (148km)

    2012 Tour of California May 17 stage 5: Bakersfield ITT 29.6 km

    Not so fast . . . Here we go again with the LPGA vs the PGA comparison. Kirstin Armstrong's win should be merited in its own right. But her time should not be compared to the men's time. To be fair, the men have endured four days of intense mileage, heat and climbing, even though the...

    TDF Stage 15 - Monday, July 19 2010, Pamiers - Bagnères-de-Luchon, 187 km

    Lots of emotional responses from today's chain event. Instant replay feuled the debate. The final time differences in Paris will reveal whether the 13 seconds lost at the summit will make any difference. History will decide Contador's honor (if he wins). But you have to admit this tour has...

    The official debate: Should Contador have waited for Schleck?

    Contador may not have wanted to repeat what we saw yesterday when they were doing track stands on the final climb while 3rd and 4th place gained time. Today Vino marked Andy's attack and coasted when he bridged while Contador was bridging up just as Andy was playing with his shifters. It was the...

    Vino »»»»»»»» Radioshack

    I want to thank a certain poster who has a hard-on for Vino to prompt me to sign up. Chill dude, it's a cycling forum where we all have the same interest in this year's TDF. The powers that be allowed Vino in so let's focus on the daily excitement.
