Since if have been MIA since the start of A Tour of France I thought I would blurt out a few sentence fragments about my thoughts on the pro road season since then. Here goes: -Schlecks need to learn to win -Cadel has the heart of a lion -Gilbert is a honey badger -Contador actually [...]
How many people can make Spartacus look silly in the last K of a race? Gilbert is on freaking fire right now. I don’t think this is the last stage he is going to win in this Tour. For me the surprise of the day was Cadel Evans, really solid finish from him. Hopefully a [...]
by Big Ring Pseudo News Network Team Radioshack manager Johan Bruyneel has confirmed he no longer gives a shit. A man described (by himself) as the greatest DS ever today announced he is sending 4 team leaders to A Tour de France. As expected Levi Leipheimer who amazed the cycling world by participating in every [...]
Looks like Big George learned a thing or two riding for Bruyneel. Today his Columbia-HRC team used one of Bruyneels favorite tactics by putting it in the gutter to see who come to race. Lance did.  Contador? I guess he was confident Paulinho could close the gap. Garmin, Lotto, Saxo Bank all got caught flat footed with [...]
I am pretty stoked that Sastre was able to hold off Cadel in the final TT. Cadel, man if you are gonna follow wheels the best you can hope for is 2nd. Ya I know his team sucked the big one but he should have been driving it for all he was worth on Alpe [...]
Yesterday I got to see some actual Tour de France coverage on the TV. Hot damn that was some stage yesterday. How many matches di Andy Schleck burn on that climb? CSC certainly has the numbers. Now they have the pressure of defending Yellow. Poor Cadel is going to learn to late that you can’t wear [...]
You know as much as I want to hate A Tour and write it off the racing is just too damn good. If you had asked yesterday who would win the TT today I would have said Cancellara without even blinking. Schumacher? Damn, would not have guessed that in a million years. Also looks like [...]
This past weekend here in the 801 we had our Mountainbike State Championships of The World. Yeah, I got worked. Still though, it is the first time my slack ass has raced in the dirt this year. So even as I was getting beaten down faster than the US dollar I was pretty happy about [...]
So I know I came down pretty hard on Brother Boonen yesterday. Flahute has shared some good insights on the subject and it made me think why I got so upset. To put it simply drugs suck. I have seen too many talented people destroy themselves and everyone around them with drugs. Simple experimentation is [...]
