Susan, it's not about the 404, it's about what the change in title says about whatever's going on inside Rabobank. The nature of hrotha's reply backs this up. I don't agree that "About the website" is really the right sub-forum for this.

Earlier today there was a blog entry from MR titled "It's time for honesty at Rabobank". Now that same blog entry has been re-titled as "It's time for Rabobank to deliver a sprint win". Maybe someone pointed out that the original title was a little provocative? Google turns up this link, but...

Thanks Greg, much obliged.

I went to catch up on Stage 8 of the Giro today by reading the live reports feed. Instead of the Giro, it had the live report for Stage 1 of the Tour of California. No problem, I thought, I'll read that first and then go looking for the Giro's live report. I was very annoyed to find this...

Thanks Greg, I now have a new bookmark. Much obliged.

Two (very weak) claims to fame... (1) I once took part in a club race against the current Aussie RR champion (he's a pro, right?) back when he first started racing and was still way under-graded (needless to say he rode the whole bunch off his wheel and was immediately graded up). (2) I once...

What a pork chop Bettini was; not sorry to see him retire.

Does the CN home page have a link to this forum? All I could see was a link to the "Procycling Magazine" forum. Having such a link would help to drive traffic here.

Yes, somewhere other than the train wreck that is rec.bicycles.racing! May this forum not go the way of that one.

I can see how to turn off my avatar, but not how to upload it in the first place! Any hints please?
