Podiums and Prizes

Storm the castle to get the beer, seems like a no-brainer.

I'll give it a shot, but if I don't return to this forum and you read a newspaper headline from Belgium titling "Local idiots storm castle with Pitchforks, get drunk and impale themselves" you know what happened.

I rarely read newspapers from Belgium.
Anyway, I refuse all responsibility!

There's a classification in cyclocross sponsored by a Bathroom-superchain. The podium gets a duck each time. I really would like to know what Iserbyt or Van Der Haar do with all their ducks. I mean they must have twenty by now and as you can see they're not really practical.

In the past there also have been quite a few weird prices. Hansgrohe used to sponsor a classification and gave the winner a shower. I think MVDP has about twenty. And another cyclocross used to give the winner a Vespa each year. I believe WVA got about five of them.

At least they've now swapped to soft toy ducks,not those massive plastic ones.

If you win the Etoile de Besseges, you get a nice star-shaped trophy - okay, that part makes sense; "etoile" means "star" - with... a picture of someone else on it...

If that star works like the one in Mario Kart, he is going to be unstoppable this spring!

Not as cute as the one at Tro-Bro Leon, is it?

They almost had the right one.

But much more delicious

But much more delicious

I'm sure the Tro-Bro-Leon is delicious too. Once it's been prepared.

You can ask Pichon about it.

Can anyone explain why Cancellara got a giant light bulb back in the 2014 Ronde?

Maybe he tried to escape from The Village

Maybe he used an OSRAM gear set.
