I was cleaning the counters busily in my kitchen with the TV on, on top of the fridge. When I heard that, I stopped, looked up, shook my head, went back to cleaning.

Gold, Jerry, Gold.

Question for big Georgie Hincapie: "Are you riding in this race?"

Big George: "No comment"

Another: "Why?"

Big George: "Talk to my lawyer. It's privileged info."

Another: "Really?"

Big George: "I know nuthin. I saw nuthin. I heard nuthin about this race."

Honestly, I guess I need to stop putting ex-pro racers on such a pedestal. I grant their ideas a little more weight than some yo-yo like liggett, but there are times when he makes liggett look halfway objective.

The 'did lance hold back' comment was one of those times.

US versus has a 'livestrong ticker' where you can upload messages or tweets. Do you see this other places?

The Freiburg Phantom on course. Harmon blathering on about Shack strength.
What's happened to Ballan? Has he finished?

Anyone think there's a chance that Cancellara could catch Armstrong? Or is it just wishful thinking on my part.

Too Much Information.

Because of his high cadence.

Lance Armstrong taught it to him apparently

Just noticed the dark lord warming up and on his bike he has "Unity" on it, is that just on his bike or do the rest of the shack team have it too?

 

[auscyclefan94]

The Dutch are the craziest supporters I have ever seen for cycling!

I would love to be there with them!

I watched OLN for 65 minutes and saw about 4 minutes of cycling. Very disappointing albeit unsurprising. Had to leave the big screen for Eurosport.

Only him. He needs to know which is the Trek Cancellara.
The rain is easing..........unfortunately.

[Big GMaC]

Has Ligget had a stroke or something?

He is really making a meal of some words putting in non-existent letters etc.
