<- Oscar Pereiro was also a bitter man on Sunday but victory yesterday seems to have mellowed the Spaniard somewhat and he revised some of his previous comments of St Lary Soulan stage winner George Hincapie. "More than the defeat, what really upset me was how my performance was criticised in the media," Pereiro told AS. "It was said that I rode like a 'juvenil' and I don't think it was like that at all. I couldn't shake Hincapie on the climb and I knew over the last 3km that I wasn't going to win. But yesterday I showed that I can ride intelligently, I've shut a few people up.">
<He also had some warmer words for Hincapie. "The other day there were some misunderstandings... but things were taken out of context. It's difficult to win at the Tour and George did what he needed to. What upset me was that I didn't expect him to be so strong.">
It's like running a retraction in the paper. Nobody notices.

I'm happy that he got his win, his head out of his ass and >some peace about it.
Me (who cares) too. OP has been trying hard for that stage win. Showing your stuff counts too. He's a good one, no big surprise if he puts up more results before the end. AAMF, I wouldn't be surprised to see OP become a Disco boy. I hear they're hiring. --TP

Well, I'm going to reply to your post just to make another post and maybe one more person will read the first post. ;-)
