Who thought of that? It's hard enough out there for cycling fans in the US having to put up with crappy comments about "spandex" and what not. I don't care if pink is the new black.
what gives?

here are a 3 I can think of
1. Someone was telling me that cycling is racist. I don't believe that and I found out about a dude named Rashan Bahanti. I placed a major bet that there have been more black cyclists.
2. Was there ever a real Team Cinzano because I was forced to watch breaking away and I was not down with those dudes at all.
3. Is it possible to ride with a twin?
all for now.

Nelson Vails was a massively powerfull U.S track rider back in the 80's. I'm not 100% sure but I think he won a medal at the 84 Olympics.

caught me
what kind of fruit cake would print a newspaper on pink paper. Get a clue, the printed word is dead anyways. Smart people get their news from forums.

rhubroma said:You are obviously someone with a rather limited mindset. The whole concept of pink as a "fruit cake," girlyman's color is a modern concept of beer chugging, tabaca spittin, rednecks who only relate to the NFL/WWA menatality.
rhubroma said:La Gazzetta dello Sport, by contrast, is a late XIX century Italian newspaper, thus its choice in having the newspaper pink was based on a hue suited to the image of the fashionable and gentlemanly sportsman dandy of that era within a Mediterranean culture. By the way, many homes in Italy are painted pink also and other "gay" colors too, yet nobody here finds anything remotely "queer" in that. It is simple regarded as vivace and bello.
