Sorry for my lack of updates, other “stuff” has come up and frankly most of last week A Tour was pretty uneventful. These are not exactly timely but there are a few things I wanna comment on.
1. More Hinault! Every time that guy opens his mouth it is pure gold. I guess the older we get the better we were, huh Bernie? I know that when I am in my 50′s I will probably be a former ‘Cross Worlds team member and maybe a Vuelta stage winner (I mean seriously who will check?) I think the coolest thing Bernie ever did as a rider was race Roubaix once and win the damn thing just so he could say it was stupid. Ya! Keep talking Bernie we are all ears.
2. Hincapie is a pussy. I did not see the stage until last night and after watching it I gotta say George and all the fan boys need a long drink from a big cup of shut the f*@k up. Nobody deserves a yellow jersey you earn a yellow jersey. 5 seconds George, that does not sound like a conspiracy to me that sounds like everyone else rememberd they were in a bike race.
3. As much as I hate to see it that little twerp Contadork sure can ride a bike. Now that the Astana leadership drama is over it will be fun to see Lance humping bottles up Ventoux. That pistol thing needs to go though.

Shop at Real Cyclist or I am telling Hinault
Yes the Badger would also make a great bouncer! I will have to agree that his Paris-Roubaix “statement” was amazing!
I will also agree George is a pussy that is the same reason he will never win Paris – Roubaix!
I will have to disagree…i kinda like the pistol thing…sorry haha
Yea, I can’t understand how he could blame five seconds out of how many hours is it total now, on Garmin or Astana.
As I was told many years ago, when a wise coach got tired of hearing me gripe about a ref’s call that cost me a match, “don’t let it get that close!”
Amen. It’s not like Big George was taking pulls to make sure he got that five seconds.
And a second Amen for Hinault. I loved the comment when asked to compare Astana ’09 with La Vie Claire ’86 “no, it wasn’t like that at all. In ’85 I won the Tour, and in ’86 we rode for Greg.” Ahem.
Contador can ride a bike, to be sure. But I still can’t stand him. The pistol makes it that much worse.
No one giving props to Haussler for finally corking a win after all those seconds this year. Maybe George can take a page from him? Seriously I just have a problem with his excuses and blame game all the time. Also Levi left the tour. Dude is so boring I didnt even notice! Did I mention that dude has a bobble head and wears some sort of bracelet? I will not be buying that bracelet cause he is endorsing it. Dude is so boring that is the only sponsor he can pull.
Contador broke Riis’ record for VAM.
I want to break contadorks pistol finger off. just for kicks.
Trust me, Hinault is an even bigger jerk in French. He’s only happy when the subject is how great he WAS. He has never had anything good to say about anyone else. According to him everybody’s a pussy except him. What a prick in any language.
Gotta say, George showed us another use for duct tape. I’ve heard you should always have a little on board to boot a blowout or whatever. Most riders probably don’t carry enough to bandage a dislocated shoulder, but it seems to be getting him to the end of the tour. Forgive his brief whine — not a pussy.
