    If you could have any of the TDF team bikes...

    Do you mean which one would I purchase or which one would I take if any one was offered (like as a prize)? Purchase: None, they are all out of my price range. Free: If I absolutely had to choose: Dogma. But honestly I'd be happy with any of them. :)

    Numb!

    Numbness in the little finger could be related to an elbow problem. I had that problem after a century ride a few years ago. Mine was much worse as it affected both the little and ring finger. Dr called it Cubital Tunnel Syndrome...

    women cyclists wanting thinner thighs

    Just let her know that a little meat on her legs is more attractive. Truth be told, I go for the cycling/speed skater look in women.

    The Dog Thread

    Dogs are smarter than cats because: When you point at something, the cat will look at the end of your finger, but the dog will look at the end of your finger and then look in the direction you are pointing.

    Tour de France (budget)

    Versus ran a fantasy challenge the past few years. You had a budget and had to pick so many riders. There were daily prises and a grand prize. Not sure if they are running it this year. I've done quite well in the past.

    Finding cheap US flights

    even if you where driving past Mitchell, SD, it is still NOT WORTH stopping for the Corn Palace. The town itself has gone downhill in the last few years. Everything has moved away from the downtown and out toward the Interstate (I blame Cabelas, but it's not like there was much there anyway).

    Finding cheap US flights

    I live in Rapid City, SD. There is no such thing as a cheap flight in the summer months. And rarely is there anything cheap in the other months. Sturgis Motocycle Rally, or Black Hills Fat Tire Festival?

    Any fast fitness tips...?

    The top isn't going anywhere and there is no reason to be embarrassed for going slowly.

    dogs nipping at your feet

    First it's a water squirt. Then, if needed, I believe that is what the frame mounted steel pump is for. Sorry people, if your dog is nucking futs...I'm gonna whack it upside the head if I feel endangered.

    How does a classics rider win the Tour?

    In order to win, one must have a better overall time then everyone else still in the race when it crosses the finish line of the final stage. it is literally that simple :)

    Paris Roubaix

    we would probably stay in Roubaix for the weekend. There are still hotels available at a reasonable price. I will pass along the Belgium suggestion to my wife. I'll just mention Tom Boonan and see what happens. (although we have already met him while he was at the Tour of Cali).
