"try walking in my shoes" when you are grown up, lol
Ok, for tomorrow you could try: Think first - then post

But not for me. I don't mind. That was quiet entertaining.

My feet would be way too small for clown shoes.

Why would I? This is 2011, not 2010.

No no, don't try to wriggle you way out of this one.
Nothing changed. They got Devolder and de Gendt, and De Gendt now equalised the total amount of Belgian victories for Vacansoleil last season, that's all.

Still doesn't make them a Belgian/Dutch hybrid or anything you always try to claim. Retract your words boy.

Urán and Moncoutié lost 8'20".

Ah, shame about Uran. I hope he recovers well, I've been really looking forward to seeing what he can do this season.

Third at Flanders is more important publicity wise than most Dutch victories last year? Bobbie's win will have also garnered a lot of publicity though.

I wonder what would happen if I called Rabobank Spanish haha.

Not to be a hater, but why does the paris-nice results on cyclingnews.com have a pic of Floyd next to it?

LOL

maybe because he was a legitimate winner of the paris-nice?!
tejay whines all day long.

Maybe he is, you know, kidding? Personally I find CN's random use of pictures rather amusing.

 

[The Hitch]

i am giving him the benefit of the doubt and ignoring those silly articles... he may be sticking up for the cry-baby Schleckletts on paper but, when it comes to the bike, he once again becomes Jens!!!

(that said, i really do wish he'd just shut up and ride )

Jens shut up?

no way.

This is the guy who after crashing badly at the Tour, rode a kids bike to the finish, barely made time cut then and asked if he would pull out said

"we must continue, broken ribs are overated anyway".

 

[Mellow Velo]

Ah, I see the Dutch Mafia have now hijacked France, after that Belgian win.
As he is probably asleep at the moment and unable to sort you bossy lot out, I would like to make this point, on behalf of ACF:

8 Danilo Wyss (Swi) BMC Racing Team
9 Romain Feillu (Fra) Vacansoleil-DCM Pro Cycling Team

i had forgotten about all those gems

i'm speaking about the more recent whinging on behalf of his too soft teammates.

This makes sense, especially because its Karneval here now.

Ya, I love Jens on the bike. Off the bike, I like hearing what he has to say. And as you point out, he's one tough sucker (NDO - No DOubt about it... p.s. it doesn't spell quite right but sounds better than NDAI).

back to the race... really looking forward to stages 5, 7, and 8, with some of the climbs and placement of some of them:
- Mure (stg 5)
- Ferrier will be interesting (maybe, tho it's right in the middle of the stage)
- Turbie & Eze (stg 8)

The difference is that Feillu was already celebrating before he crossed the finish

 

[hrotha]

Yeah but Wyss was probably celebrating too. 8th! Party at BMC's.

 

[Andy99]

Yep;

 

[Michielveedeebee]

great win for Thomas, he really deserved it after all the attacking he's already done this year

 

[Ryaguas]

Boooooya!!!! sux that McQuack!!! Vacansoleil is ProTour Material!!!
Great pic!!!

 

[boomcie]

Thomas De Gendt did great in the Algarve. He has been riding consistently strong this season. He took a second place in the second stage of the Tour Down Under behind Cameron Meyer and I think he could have easily won that stage if he didn't start sprinting that early.

I won't be surprised if he shows himself in the coming races in Flanders.

Or in Paris-Nice
Great ride.

 

[Buffalo Soldier]

I love De Gendt's heavy Flemish accent when speaking english, btw

It's not as bad as Niels Alberts'

Yes!!!!! You should of seen what it was like when we got 2nd at Strade Bianche!!!!

In all seriousness, nice ride by Danilo!

This makes sense, especially because its Karneval here now.

And by Karneval, you mean you, a bottle of cheap wine, some midget porn, and a copy of "Co-dependent No More!"

Sweetie, you're outclassed here. Cat 3's shouldn't line up in a Pro/1/2 race. Just quit while you're behind.
