[auscyclefan94]

It's only going to get exciting in the final eleventy-two

your coming out with some pearlers tonight isso!

 

[Bala Verde]

HEY!!!!

Let's keep it respectful

After what the other forumites *pointing fingers* said about Voigt's wife, I thought this was kind of allowed

 

[auscyclefan94]

WTF is saxo doing?

 

[Moondance]

Awww...Frank and Andy even share cokes... Their mother must be so proud of them....

Anyway, so ends Voigt's hour of uselessness.

 

[Parrot23]

Anyone see the pic of Wigans at Fleche. Looking like his exclusive rice cake diet, TM, is bearing dividends.

He looks strong/light, LOL!

 

[Bala Verde]

Montfort....

 

[zapata]

monfort next to try

HTCColumbia

fire along the course. 2nd feedzone changed, race route changed.

Who knows the changed route now?

 

[Potomac]

someday...someday....these races will be live on American TV, won't they?

My video's been bit splotchy but I've got ESUK audio

What we really need is a Wii cycling channel so I can see great big pixels on the big screen


If Cancellara was here he'd attack now and it would be over.

it's to mix up DNA, when they toss the can...

Weening feeling good!

From Velonews:

"Andrei Tchmil says Katusha has "three cards to play - Kolobnev, Ivanov and Joaquin Rodriguez. Joaquin can win Liege. He's on great form right now and his second place at Fleche proved it. My big favorite to win is Philippe Gilbert. After you saw what he did in Amstel you realize how strong he is right now. But in cycling, you never know what's going to happen. That's what makes this sport so beautiful."

He will soon be caught

 

[auscyclefan94]

astana has been caught in a crash.

 

[Publicus]

astana has been caught in a crash.

AC to be exact. Looks like he didn't hit the ground though.

 

[Parrot23]

Think Contador was held up, too.

 

[Potomac]

I'm betting against the Schlecks today.

Just a feeling.

 

[El Imbatido]

Where are focus bikes made

 

[auscyclefan94]

I'm betting against the Schlecks today.

Just a feeling.

Who are you betting for? I feel so many guys could do the job today. 20 guys imo.

It will still be a couple of years of technological evolution. When standards exist for streamed video to connect to today's tv's, we may be better off. Or maybe not.

TV is integrating streamed video, but the quality of the feed is still not good and everyone is not playing well together as yet.

And of course cycling is the poor relation of sports viewing here in the US. So the technology will have to trickle down from the cash cows.

IOW, Yes to your question, but don't hold your breath waiting.

I don't care what Farrar says, my wife says Transitions are useless for the most part. They just don't work that well.

 

[Lyds97]

Think Contador was held up, too.

And yet, conversely, I think I just saw Gesink pedalling along happily at the front of the bunch.

 

[issoisso]

I don't care what Farrar says, my wife says Transitions are useless for the most part. They just don't work that well.

I'm told they never go completely clear, so you can't see right and you look like a jackass.

They'd probably sell more with an advertisement of Gesink saying "I never use Transitions"

Unless the technology has improved A LOT in the past 20 years ...

I get Netflix movies over my Wii onto my TV, it's very very good. So good I would give up getting the DVDs in the mail completely if every movie was available on demand.


Meanwhile, back to my hunches I will predict that none of the "big favorites" will win.

 

[Moondance]

Aerts is owning... If Gilbert wins he'd better buy Mario a nice bottle of champagne or something.
