Do you think he should change his sideburns to something like J. Vaughters? ;)

I do not approve of this suggestion.

Regarding AC: he is the most wonderful rider I have ever seen. About the doping, or not; I don`t know. But I miss him.

LaFlorecita, I love your worship of Alberto, but sometimes you are a little over the top.
But i am a fan too - happy to see he will be back in just two months, hopefully as strong as ever

One of my favorite clips - i love how he just keeps trying - each effort must take so much from him

If you are a fan of a rider/team/sport there is no over the top, I appreciate seeing fans of the sport like LaForecita, much better than the haters out trolling for a speck of dirt to hate (aka, the prolific Clinic trolls).

Second that.

I cannot wait for him to return. He can come back and save me from GT boredom. Alberto always does something. He tries and attacks. It's his nature. Admirable qualities for a racer, even better for viewers. Without his qualities methodical calculated boredom has manifested. Boring riders have trains pulling them along. IMO, that form of cycling is killing the appeal of cycling. Wild unplanned passionate violent attacks are what make cycling. Throwing caution to the wind and having a go beat sucking wheels any day of the week.

Very nice summary shows exactly why Alberto is awesome.

Had to remind myself that they actually still are in the sport. Would be disastrous if they left the team, wouldn't it... With all the great effort and riding they've done.

Aah, dots will always be the punctuation's equivalent to trollface!...

Navarro did a tremendous job for Alberto in the 2010 Tour and Jesus worked really hard for Alberto in last year's Giro.
