    Big Thanks to Race Radio

    You bet, chief. I remember you well as a very reasonable, rational voice from the first days I was around here. Thanks, always :D

    Trek going going gone

    As a Wisconsin resident, I wish I could support Trek. But I never will. I went to high school with one of the mouthpieces listed on the media contact info. Hope you're enjoying your inbox these days, Eric.

    Big Thanks to Race Radio

    Another longtime lurker, cheers :) I watched LeMond win in 89 when I was just a kid.. Lance never smelled right, but I was skeptical of him ever having to face the music... Thanks RR for keeping hope alive. Thanks Floyd for being a critical force in breaking the omerta. The way...

    94th Ronde van Vlaanderen - April 4

    great race this morning, loved seeing boonen and canc work together instead of giving up when the initial gap was briefly stuck around 12-15 seconds. 2 clearly defined pre-race favorites ignoring more obvious tactical manuevering & making a relatively premature decision to really let the road...

    94th Ronde van Vlaanderen - April 4

    lol at the Cancellara response to Lance's chances.. it's got to be hard for these guys, in some of these situations with versus/etc interviews, to stifle outright laughter when asked a question like that. Guess the big boys are all used to it by now. Did a little mashup of Stijn's move on the...

    VDB death

    tainted blood & broken bodies become dust, swept into the cobbles and too soon forgotten... RIP FVDB,,

    Official thread TdF Stage 15 Pontarlier - Verbier - 207.5 km

    It would be fun if Frank could get clear first.. even if Andy, Cadel, Carlos are demoralized by Berto riding so easily, surely they must try..

    Team Time Trail, in or out?

    I still think it is fair to say that it has the potential to be an exciting part of the event, assuming the rest of the 3 weeks include multiple significant mountain stages.. because there would ideally be complexities for both strong climbing & big power squads to consider if it were tagged as...

    CERA Saxo and Columbia

    if it proves true, we can say where we heard it first ;)

    CERA Saxo and Columbia

    While this would certainly be no surprise to many people, it seems to cross into pretty undesirable speculative territory.. I don't have much taste for damnation of a large group anymore than I do for just a handful of riders, so long as I believe there are still plenty more out there who are...

    Official thread TdF Stage 15 Pontarlier - Verbier - 207.5 km

    I hope I am wrong, but I don't predict much of a change in anything tomorrow. Alpe pretty much spells it out above. I have already mentioned elsewhere that I see Tuesday's stage as a perfect setup for Lance to pull a gap on the descent, thereby claiming the rights to the jersey without ever...

    Did Lance betray George?

    The way some people talk about the race, you'd think they must believe it is like a big music show, with a headlining act or two, and all the rest are just undercards there to ignore and/or occasionally talk **** about.

    Did Lance betray George?

    Bobby is learning well... +2 The rant by Stapleton is a prime example of the sort of American-centric dicksizing nonsense that is employed so regularly by Armstrong on Twitter and his other outlets. Unfortunately, the results have shown to be immediate and tremendously successful...

    What does Schleck know that most won't admit?

    I hope Andy is right about 17 proving to be a very tough and selective stage.. at this point what concerns me is that he & the others could be even further behind when they leave Bourg that day. Nobody but JV seems to be talking about the scary finishes (and the huge potential therein) of...
