*Giro, not Firo.

There should be an unwritten rule that the winner of TDF attempts the Firo-Tour Double the following year. It would make things a lot more interesting, and probably bring a lot more attention to the Giro and cycling in general. Cadel looked great. Good to see a veteran get it, Andy has many...

I was watching an old Giro DVD the other day (1998) and Marco Pantani's chain fell off and everyone just took off. Pantani fixed it and went after them, he didn't cry...and continue to cry. I hope AC smashes AS this year, again!

I'm going to say this again, if you are a pro or are on some semi-pro team or such, then you probably should wear your own team's kit. If you're a recreational rider, amateur, enthusiast/fan, then yeah, by all means, feel comfortable wearing/supporting a team. The only slight exception to not...

I think it means a lot to Schleck to "beat" Contador. He's said before he wants him there to beat him, and if Contador would get stripped of his 2010 victory, that he (Schleck) wouldn't want to be handed the victory. I don't think he'll win either way either. He's always got something that...

No one wants to inconvenience themselves by getting their water bottle out ready for "squirting," or unpacking their pepper spray. Who knows? Just, if there are people with the dog, which a lot of people do let their dogs run wild on bike paths, make sure you yell at the people "Control your...

I don't think that AS has the mental strength to handle the pressure. He's not a good "planner," and if AC isn't there he probably will think that it will be an easy victory...which will mess up his mentality even more. I'd LOVE to see Basso surprise Schleck...that would be just fabulous! But...

Personally. I think that AC says things like "I'm only focusing on the Giro (right now)," and doesn't necessarily commit to TDF, because if he doesn't live up to expectations, i.e., win the Giro and TDF, then he can always play it down, like he wasn't fully committed to the TDF and that's why he...

Does anyone wanna answer this?

I don't use energy drinks. And no one can hear that I'm listening to Opera on my ipod while riding my bike. I order wine at the bar (I don't drink anything otherwise, and certainly wouldn't stoop to Pabst). It's hard, but I'm not giving up my commuter (track) bike just to subtract myself from...

Since Hipsters try to swizzle their ways into all types of Cultures, it's best to look for ways to showcase your disdain for Hipsters and to indicate that you are, in fact, not a Hipster. I thought being 32 years old was enough, but some suggests that I could look younger. Any suggestions??

Yeah, and??? No smoking gun here.

Okay, I think I've figured this out. You should NOT wear team kits if you are a pro, or championship jerseys if you have not won them (but have the opportunity by being in the race, or potential to be in the race.) Andy Schleck shouldn't ride around in a Liquigas jersey, Kobe Bryant shouldn't...

Messengers should be the most offended. Especially if the hipsters are trying to pass as messengers.

Hipsters don't shave their legs. Now that's just weak!
