We can't all be Victoria Secret models or be chiseled studs with perfect bodies and high cheek bones. You play with the hand you're dealt. She appears to be a fine person and is quite good at her profession, that's enough for me.

The website also in 2010 offered the tour.of California as one of a handful of.options.for.race of the season even though the 2010 tour of.California is widely recognised as the worst race of all.time.

What do you mean? Are we missing anything? :confused:

Edit: Never mind, I just saw who was suspended. I guess 'messages' were deleted. :rolleyes:

what is so wrong?i voted wiggo too, definitely deserved it
tommeke stormed the cobbles with an iron fist
those two are untouchable
i do agree that purito did a 2011 phil in terms of length of peaking but unfortunately he did lose quite a lot of races. probably he deserves to be above alberto and sagan
