Well that just means they are talking wrong or in some slang (and I personally consider slang to be wrong), or in some dialect. Grammatically, plurals take gustan (unless some greater mind can correct me with greater justification than "it sounds right";), though usually those who learn a language through a grammar base have a good knowledge of the workings of the grammar).

it should be gusta I think because and this is very complicated to explain as I could only do it in dutch but in duthc it actually makes sense. but the meaning of the word gustar is different. and the way you "vervoegt" the word :eek:

Yep you are right I missed the "N"
and is "Gustan" cuz you are talking in plural... the subject "Los Colores" is in plural so the verb must be in plural too...it can sound well "Gusta" but isnt right...

Yes but this is Spanish not Dutch, totally different language family. means "is being liked by" so if the object is plural eg "the colors" then you say the colors "are being liked by" me, rather than the colors is being liked by me

Thanks.

I know that I meant as to explain it in dutch how it worked but I was wrong. "vervoegen" van words in dutch and spain is similar and in same order somewhat that's what I meant by explaining in dutch and especially in the case of gustar but I was wrong in this :)

Bit of a disappointment, but expected, that they're not at the Giro. Will be good to see them at Tirreno and Lombardia though. As well as MSR.

Just bought procycling today and it says RCS are thinking about inviting a foreign team to the giro to increase the worldwide appeal of the race. This is a great chance to tap into the south american market so why not do it. Could we be seeing victor hugo pena again and duarte would be a good addition to the race.

By the way nice jerseys:

Oh well. When they said foreign team they must have meant foreign "european" team.:(

I like that kit too. Very classy. Thumbs up!

They'll most likely have a better chance at the Vuelta. I feel they deserved the spot more than NetApp, but then maybe they would have been outbidded by A&S.

It's still great to see that they've been invited to Tierreno-Adriatico, Lombardia, and MSR. I'm curious to see who their go to guy will be for MSR.

he will arrive there at the back of the peloton , never able to see the front;)
better try to show something on the cipressa, to show they are there
he is not very good positioning himself in the group and it is very difficult to do that anyway without very strong classic domestique in sanremo

New colombian team!!!

For those of you that have followed my comments here.. just a quick and unfortunate update: The new management of Coldeportes found all kind of illegal contracts and procedures in the team!...Unfortunately I was right!.. They just killed Colombia es Pasion, and now what is left? Nothing.. The worst is now ready to come!!!.. they have not even signed a contract with Corti yet!!!:mad:
