Or a punch to the kidney.

The old phrase “taking the piss” comes to mind. If you’re questioning the consistency of fans, good luck coming to any sort of meaningful conclusion. MVP had a water bottle thrown at him a couple months ago. Maybe it had pee in it and maybe it was the same fella.

Respect to Wout, brilliant effort and extreme selflessness. The epitome of a teammate. Has there been any footage of Yates and Van Aert meeting after the finish?

This photo, or a variation of it, will become iconic. Nice gesture from “the kid” to the champion. Let’s see what becomes of this kid.

Since you mention not watching cycling again, is that what would push you away? An abundance of uneducated fans embracing fiction? I missed quite a few episodes over the past few years. Missed most of Froome's, didn't see Thomas. Missed Roglic's "almost" and didn't catch any of Pog's...

Lump me in with the rest of the "haven't posted for years" guys, but I was legitimately enjoying the race this year prior to this performance. Some things never change. Fix that ear piece Jonas! Once he caught up to Pog's team car a quick thinker would have faked a mechanical or kindly gone...

Amazing what a little bit of confidence will do for a bike racer.

Archer is a good one. Surprised nobody has mentioned Vikings, my current addiction.

Meh. As mentioned, at least it's something. As big of a deal as sports are worldwide it wouldn't be too difficult to come up with something much more powerful than this. Kudos for putting forth the effort though.

Beautiful description. The best quote is the one that's missing, grand pappy Horner. Surprised they don't give him an honorary platinum package.

aka the second coming of Stephen Swart. Signed by Postal but would not conform so out of the sport with ya. Speaking of ruskies, how about a shout out to that poor fellow robbed of more of his well deserved top step podium glory by Heras & Killer. Forced out of the sport like that Garmin...

Maybe I confused Bernie with 45. Kim Kirchen

It was evident what direction this thread would take in post #1, especially if your familiar with B-kitty's posting style (there's over 7000 of them). Some may call it trolling, most recognize it as satire. With all the evidence that's been thrown in our faces over the last 20+ years it's hard...

Dude, you bumped me man. Excellent choice by the way. That's OK, I should have included a number, here goes: 17 JV Maybe the Garmin roster could be pasted here. I would, however, like to bring special attention to this special young clean rider before the rest of the Garminites show up...

Duh. JV. Dude wouldn't even take nuttin for his swelled up eye as to abide strictly by da rulz. THEN, he turnt round n wuz only slower than cheaters Mayo n Hamilton on the great Ventoux. Barely a minute and a half ahead of Moncoutie. Pfft, anybody else woulda took somethin for that eye...
