Graham Brown

That is interesting .... given the Rabobank team mateship those 2 - Hayman and Brown would have shared over many years. Hayman has now left I believe ?

Yeh, Hayman now rides for Sky

Always strikes me as Gazza on a bike. Talent meets internal tragedy, or something.

You mean talent meets too many mars bars

I thought we were talking about Graeme Brown not Jan Ullrich

 

[blackcat]

Graeme de Bruijn - biggest D!ckhead in the peloton, and that says something.

What did you make of Graeme's grab for Robbie's wheel in the lead up to the sprint, stage 4, TDU? He robbed the rider on Rob's wheel: who then fought back to reclaim it but succumbed to GB's shoulders and arm. GB win's the wheel, then passes Robbie, but fades before line.

 

[swuzzlebubble]

I watched a couple of times and felt GB may have had the line first and the other guy was trying to get in from the left - ie GB just held his ground?

PS McEwen had good closing speed to the line.

I think he should be banned from the sport forever... oh no, wait, wrong guy.

New job

Brown should become the spokesperson for a company that sells:
1. Beer, 'cause he's fat;
2: Whiskey, 'cause he's fat and mean; or
3: Ice cream, 'cause he's really fat.

Or perhaps all 3

He actually has really lean legs and body, just a fat face. If we could get a list of the skinfold measurements of every rider in the peleton guaranteed half would be fatter.

This does not look like lean legs and body ...

Perhaps the pics are adding 50 lbs?

That's the unflattering picture which turns up again and again... I've seen plenty of TDU pictures where he doesn't look like that, and as it's taken only a week ago, I assume it has something to do with the jersey. And as for the legs, those are a sprinter's legs.
I'm not a fan either, but come on, this guy isn't fat.

 

[sublimit]

Seems like he just gets in the way. i reckon he could do a job as lead out man looking at his size though.

or grow a moustache and become a Derny driver!

 

[saxe_coburg_gotha]

Great point.
El Gordo Brown seems to make his presence felt in the pelton.
Is he really all that fat.
He just likes to carry a "spare tyre" with him.
I wouldn't like to have to clean out his cage though.

 

[unsheath]

He carried on like a 10 year old girl after the disqualification at the Bay series. He's a bully clear and simple.

Hey, let's not diss 10 year old girls!
