You want find anything there that you won't get here. + its all limited.to half a sentence and you have to wade through hundreds of posts about what people did today and what they are eating and who they think should win some talent show program.

@Laura_Meseguer dato che vogliamo un ciclismo spettacolare!! Forse bisognerebbe togliere I misuratori di potenza in gara

Since we want spectacular cycling maybe we should get rid of powermeters during races.

it's not powermeters or not powermeters

it's just that nobody forgives anything team Sky does.

we would not be here fussing about Nibs or Purito if they looked at their powermeters every 2 sec.
powermeters are allowed so anyone is free to use them as they want and as they are capable of.

Count me out of that equation please.
Dislike the concept of SRM's in racing regardless of who uses them

We would be if they were also making racing a lot less exciting to watch. But so far they are not.

As a Brit I take some pleasure from seeing a British team winning races in cycling, but at this point, it's becoming a little dull. Cycling is about big, heroic attacks & Sky just don't do that. They ride efficiently. It's smart, but it's not necessarily fun.

Seems the Voigt household is basically in pieces:

Tough times at the Voigt House in the moment, one had a bikechrash and his knee is twice the size

The next son got hit while playing lacrosse- the knee is swollen to twice the size it normally has.

And one of the girls fall of her horse this weekend, also hurting at a few places of her body....

And Daddy got his head kicked in this weekend at the Crit. International. Time to stick togeher and fight together through the tough times!!

:eek:

Meanwhile it's only Alex Rasmussen's bike that's gonna be hurting:

Gettin my new bike tomorrow, so I celebrate by sending my old bike down the ramp at Rocacorba.

Of course I think he should just give it to me!
Even though it's probably not my size...
