Those trophy girls need a shave!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! AM I hearing this? If The Great One raced like they do today (picking and choosing part of the year) then he would still be winning! Yes, Lance would still be on that bike winning! Whoops... I mean The Really Great One! Y'all are...

I guess this puts a damper on his Giro hopes (http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/winter-training-nibali-basso-and-ricco-begin-2011-preparations), heh heh.... But seriously, I am glad that Ricco didn't die. Mainly so that he can contemplate the rest of his life as a non-racer... Cruel, I...
