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? ;)

WHat does the O in The O Alexander Kristoff stand for, and did he really say that?

"Overated" would seem more logical:D

Omnipotent is the true answer. And as with other omnipotent beings his ways a mysterious and that's why we haven't seen him win too much yet. You have to believe that he is winning before you can see him winning.

Well, "overhyped" was the meaning of my original abbreviation, but "overrated" might be just as good :p

Actually I kinda feel bad for the guy, since ACF supposedly managed to jinx him while hyping him to be faster than he is. Kristoff will surely get some wins along the road, but against sprinters like Cav, Farrar, Petacchi, Freire, Hushovd, Greipel etc. he'll be shark food.

Well, he is still very fast when it comes to acceleration but he's not very good at the other aspects of sprinting yet. He gets lost in the sprint and boxes himself in and gets stuck too far back in the last few kms etc. Unfortunately it's the overall result that counts so until he gets more consistent at navigating bunch sprints he won't live up to the hype.

Well, as far as I know he's never won a stage in a race with the pros. Only win of note he has to his name is the Norwegian Champs, which is, with all due respect, a race against secondary opposition.

So I'm gonna with with even rating him until he's actually won something, anything.

I was just joking, in fun of course, about the time you convinced (which I admit wasn't really advice) ACF to create a thread about his meeting Cuddles... and some of the dialog that followed. :D

BTW, dim is creative... good choice for the avatar ACF.

That's a really good one, who knows maybe you will keep it as he will most likely spank your former hero all year, he does have youth on his side.
How long are you sentenced to wear it?

If he wants to I will take that bet, he can even name the odds (as long as they aren't too strange :p)
