just cracks me up a little... Matt Lloyd looks like he's thinking "What the hell are they doing?"

He's asking: "What's this Spaniard doing here?"

Don't really get how the mechanic was able to follow Pinotti up the chronoscalato. He must be pretty good on the bike himself.

It was only the last K
But he has some decent calves, so I would say he has done his time (often ex-pro's or "nearly pro's")

Good to see he is wearing his helmet, other wise you can be disqualified by the UCI Commissionaires

Don't know how classic this is, but it always makes me laugh :D

I love how the Helmuth Kohl look-a-like presents the Navigare jersey to a shocked Paride Grillo, Emanuele Sella, who tries hard to smile politely and Julio Alberto Perez who's obviously not impressed (or just don't give a damn).

Grillo looks like he has just woken up, or put a a fork into an electrical socket.

Just notice the barends on Bartali's rig. Not common, I'd guess because the much longer cable travel, with more and sharper bends, would tend to make shifting sloppier and less reliable on the friction setups of the era.

This was along the final downhill turn before the finish in the Auburn Crit two weeks ago. 5 laps to go. I was leading the group through the corner, while Chad Gerlach was away solo. My front wheel found a little hole to sink into and my bike shot out from underneath me. My computer says we were going around 30-35mph.

I scraped up my arm, needed a stitch to hold it shut and I put a huge hole in my hip. I got up and finished for 15th. And I didn't break my bike.

Mike Magraf, the Safeway rider in the photo (who can apparently levitate his bike) crashed with me. He broke his sternum on the curb.
