  1. Philly is never going to be taken seriously as a top
    bike race until Threshold hires some eye candy to
    hand stuff out on the podium. I don't know what
    these people are thinking.

    Read their profs -- they're homegrown. And the rest of the women in Philly
    look just like they do, IIRC (with thanks to Brian for the IIRC).

    Some are, some have good surgeons

    <And the rest of the women in Philly

    If only it were true. Next year check out the so-called females in
    Manayunk. If they look good, they came from somewhere else.

    For the benefit of the folks at Threshold, what's the hourly
    rental charge for chicks in Philly that look like that?

    PA: Chunky, but not quite as fat as TX. In fact, TX was 5th
    fattest in 2000. Maybe it's the Dallas cheerleaders who are imports.

    Meanwhile, apparently you guys really have to go to T-town
    for what you seek:

    -Ben
    thinks they could have podium girls at Philly
    and podium guys at SFGP, to keep everyone happy

  20. Bob you were right on - I have been going to Phila for 10 years and
    this is the first year I can remember that they even had girls on the
    podium - I have some pix i will put up in a day - but they weren't much
    to look at.....The problem is that no one in American has any
    experience in how the Post bike race podium presentation works. If the
    marketing dept of threshhold knew anything about making money and
    running a race, they would have podium girls (Girls in Sponsor
    colors/outfits) at every race. Maybe they are making so much cash that
    they don;t need it..............
