Ok, post your pictures of Gesink and I will select which picture will be my avatar for the month. This will apply till march 20 until I bet again.:eek:

I will choose the photo at 9am AEDST. So you have 9 hours!

Gesink ahead of cuddles.
Ok, Evans won, but the picture-moment counts.
BTW, I hated Cadel for winning that one, but well, he had to do it.
 
Anybody got one of Evans trying to headbutt Gesink in the sprint to the line at Xorret del Catí? You know, the one where de la Fuente was in the break and was soft-pedalling to the line, and Valverde sprinted past him to take the bonus seconds for 3rd and with them the maillot oro?

Tried, but couldn't find one.
 
Haha - Leave it to ak-zaaf.

This one might take a little trimming, but, with the inclusion of Leipheimer and The Antlered Tool, I think it definitely wins for obnoxious points:

I would advise ACF to pick this.

First and foremost since this thing is all in good humour and that picture has not much seriousness about it. Just Gesink pulling a weird face out of happyness. Like i said all in good humour.

Secondly people do intrinsically judge books by their covers so its always nice for you if you have a happy picture in your avatar.

Third of all its a image some of us already think of when we thing of the condor. It was a funny celebration and if he does become a big star it could be a image that is shown a lot more times.

Maybe in the future he can repeat that celebration like Flecha repeats the Arrow and the great one the pistol.

Also avatars are small and it can be difficult to tell whose who sometimes but there, there is no mistake that that is Gesink.

Up to you though ACF.

Spot on!! :cool:

Remember, ACF, that originally you promised a Gesink avatar until the month of May, so if you win the bet you're gonna make around March 20th, you must in all fairness keep the Gesink avatar and not go back to a Evans/BMC avatar f.i. :)

Wanna make a bet about TOAK while we're on the subject of betting? ;)
