Tour 2007 belongs to the Chicken. That makes six GT wins.

 

[the asian]

It's 5 for me. I consider Menchov a 3 time GT winner and Pereiro a GT winner so even though I like Bertie, I can't be a hypocrite.
(7 0n the road but 5 officially)

How many Giro's has Merckx won?

You are a hypocrite if you consider Menchov to be a 3 time GT winner I'm afraid.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Menchov was clearly doped. Certainly now it seems more and more certain half the Rabobank team doped in the years before blood passport

Merckx tested positive.

Hey, he beat the tests. Not his fault he was not caught

 

[El Pistolero]

Merckx tested positive.

Not according to today's rules.

Ps: Rasmussen tested positive for dynepo. Good fight.

[the asian]

I don't celebrate his zero titles.

Lalalalala

 

[Forunculo]

I can remember La Flo about Alberto wasn't going to end even at the podium

Alberto Contador ‏@albertocontador
Only I can say that i have no words to describe my feelings that are passing through my mind.Thanks!

 

[the asian]

Would love to see him win the Wolrd's ITT. The course definitely suits him and with Froome and Martin in bad shape he should be favourite.

Heck, go on over to the stage 20 thread and this one doesn't belong to AC either. And doped or not, what did Lance do to win his but follow wheels? If you want to play that game we can all play it forever, with every rider in every race. Heck, I can argue that the Patriots won the 1st super bowl against the giants. Doesn't erase the disappointment of the fact they lost.

It makes no never mind to me re: Lance, and I have posted more than amply on Lance in all the numerous threads in the clinic. I veered way off course where the topic rages else where on this message board.

Eating a dodgy steak or taking a rogue supplement or whatever it was does not equate to a decade of basic fraud. It's 7

Calm down anyone before you need to. I'm being flippant in a fanboyish mood tonight

I seriously want La Flo to get checked for bipolar!

Oleg Tinkov ‏@olegtinkov
We just won #LaVuelta 2012 @saxobanktinkoff good and cool job @albertocontador still #1 not Katusha's Rodriguez !!! Absutu love it

 

[Carols]

Apparently Contador was already celebrating while riding up the climb knowing that Purito could not have succeeded in taking the 2min+ he had on him

- “sabía que en los últimos metros era imposible recuperar la diferencia que le sacaba. Sabía que Purito iba a atacar, pero yo había decidido no hacerlo y optar por seguir subiendo a mi ritmo para disfrutar."

which is reasonable if u ask me

Well as much as I like the guy; he was Suffering big time.

Athletes are the biggest poker players out there. I never have any idea when they are telling the truth.

Wasn't Tinkov kicked out "katusha" orso?

[Vino attacks everyone]

Yeah katusha took over his team and he was kicked out or something like that

 

[Parrulo]
