Who?

Anyway the number of cheek kiss is somewhat dependant in the area. In some parts of France it is customary to do 4. Brussels is one, if I remember correctly.

kisses

the number of kisses is based purely on how good looking the podium girl is. In 1974, they actually had to carry a Stage winner off the stage because the podium girl was so smokin hot.

60% of the time, winning a stage works all the time.

Contador sure seems to have an aversion to kissing pretty girls. Maybe he is gay or just shy?

He is just too focused on tour domination to notice girls.

I would keep on kissin' until the old badger threw me off the stage.

Do they have podium girls for women's cycling, too? Or podium boys?

Screw the snobbish cheek rubs, I'm waiting to see some real "French" kissing.

I'm with Seinfeld on this one. Kissing friends is passe, now a breast squeeze, that is different.

One of the girls this year has a real mean top on her. Wish I could find a picty somewhere.

All depends on how hot the podium girl is

Yeah I was a bit hasty there. Usage depends on country and region. I guess the number of kisses should vary depending on the rider and/or the girls.

 

[danyela]

Also depends on if the riders wife/girlfriend is there. If she is absent they might be able to sneak in a few extra.
