He's tried to win every sprint stage.. and what makes you think it was easy?

I've been drawn back in here at the sight of Pog, breaking away solo with 80k to go, and finishing minutes ahead, looking totally fresh, and having the strength left to showboat lifting his bike above his head.

The nail in Campagnolo's coffin is that Shimano is just too good, too big, and Campagnolo cannot compete on anything, not price, not build quality, not innovation, not function. For decades, Italian products held a sort of cachet that was exploited to death in the marketing, that somehow they...

He knows more that you do.

LOL. He didn't "test positive". He exceeded the therapeutic threshold for the asthma drug. This isn't "testing positive" in any sense.

Still coming out with this crap, Red Rick?

Remind me.. when was that fabled GT win by a clean rider? Oh yeah...forgot. Vuelta '13

Doping has always been a part of pro cycling. Right from the very start. I'm not sure why you guys get so het up about it, like it's some massive injustice. It's part of the circus...and it is a circus. It's part of the entertainment industry, not some sort of pantheon of god's engaging in a...

Inside the mech is a sort of knurled collet that positions the mech. If you yank the mech it can move the collet round snd from then on you mech will always be put of position to where it thinks it is.
