AC - Just the Yellow Jersey

[dolophonic]

Shleck was wearing his special White shorts to go with the Yellow jersey.
I kind of like the oldschool just the jersey look. That probably does not play well for the marketing people.

Maybe he is waiting until he doesn't get booed before he loads up on bling.

I like what Sastre and CSC did in 2008, everyone riding ordinary bikes but with yellow tape, celebrating both the team-effort which landed the victory for Sastre, and the victory in the Team GC

They usually don't go all-out with the yellow(or pink) right away. Usually they wait until they've been in the jersey a few days or until the race is sewn up.

Of course there are exceptions. Hence, the use of the word 'usually'

Certainly Cipo is an exception to every rule

Why didn't they just give him Shrek's yellow bike. It was ready to go....

Wouldn't be a problem. Conta knows how to shift.

Also, no one would toss him down a slope if he did have problems.

No doubt.

And he's amply earned his. Not with his mouth either.
