I was happy seeing Jonathan there and riding well after the crap season he had in Cross.

Decent race too, nice to see something other than a sprint win.

Easily my favourite too...

[montagna lunga]

blah blah blah...nothing but a bully.

Thats the pot calling the kettle black, if I may be so effusively arrogant and enlightening to suppest possibly (words don't count, remember?)
Decades ago there were crapheads defending the guy who punched Merckx in the gut. More recently? LA down after a snagged musette bag being waved by a fanaticMore/less acceptable?
Because he's a cyclist? Because its LA ?

What do you think Eddy is telling Roger here? "Man, when we get to the Poggio I'm gonna smoke yer @ss!!!"

 

[Bala Verde]

I don't know how Roger replied, but the fact that he remains calm and collected and takes his time to readjust his strap, shows he is not the least impressed by Merckx's mockery

PICS!!!!

Bahamontes on the Tourmalet 62, stuffing his gob with a hotdog or a pulled pork sandwich....

And you gotta love the glasses of Big Mig

 

[Cartesian Centaur]

Winning white jerseys is really painful.

Funny! Sure had a helluva time with The Badger in the '81 Roubaix. Roger should've had 5 wins there.

For the smokers out there....
