For those that are on Twitter, I'm sure you're familiar with hashtags. If not, they're a phrase or word that has a # in front of it. They're all grouped together into one area where they're stored. That's as best as I can define it. I usually get a kick out of reading them on Twitter and thought it would be a neat idea to incorporate the trending hashtag topic to make it cycling related.

Like for instance, right now one of the trending topics is "If I won the Lotto I would" (in hashtag for it's #IfIWonTheLottoIWould). In California right now the Lotto is at 460 million dollars right now I believe which is why it's trending.

I'll start it easy.

#IfIWonTheLottoIWould buy all my favorite riders and build a team around them.
 
Obviously the same as you, but with a slight twist:

#IfIWonTheLottoIWould bribe CAS to admit they made a mistake in the Contador case so that his suspension gets void and then I would start my own cycling team with him as captain and all my favourite riders in it and Bjarne as team manager. And I would buy Frandy, only to later tell them they're water carriers for Alberto.

They're not going to like that very much :p

It was nice to see Boonen trending on Twitter today. I also saw that #rvv was trending in some places.
