Picture of Valverde and the question "What's his Secret?"


Someone should probably suggest to Polar that they should pull that one...

I really am impressed that they are sticking with it!

For that matter, its just plain impressive that the company seems happy to publicly link themselves so strongly to a rider that is so clearly tainted as an apparent cheat. With all the bad publicity, most companies would have run for the hills by now.

I like it! As a bold ad, for a short period of time, I think it's brilliant!

It reminds me a little of a eTrade ad in the 2000 Superbowl about 5 years ago, horribly brilliant. Watch here.
