And over a minute behind Tyler. Either his bike wasn't light
enouh or his legs are showing their age a bit. July is going
to very interesting and lots of fun.

Is the use of one leg warmer a weight saving device? Do you
think it would be worth 2 minutes?? Or five??!?

He's got two leg warmers (or long tights) with orange blocks
on them. Check his ankle on the rear leg and you'll see the
bottom of the other.

No it's two, but pulled down on the knee because it was
warmer than I thought. No time to get them off. Also
see no.43.

Must be for aero purposes then.

Or Lance is rope-a-doping, or it was too hot... You
never know.

July will be VERY interesting, to say the least.

Are you sure? I'm certain that's a Catlike Kompakt helmet.
Who else wears them in the pro peloton?

Its weird how the base of the Ventoux kinda looks like the
Netherlands 😉

I believe that the decisive stages in the tour will be in
its second half, so it may be a bad idea to be in peak shape
now, or even at the start of the tour.

That is clearly not Iban Mayo; he's not even riding an
orange bicycle, much less an Orbea. That also appears to be
a Fassa Bortolo top with Euskaltel bottoms rather than
anything resembling a leader's jersey. Compare:

Actually, it's in Belgium somewhere between Sint Truiden
and Dinant. I must apologize for the saddle bag and frame
pump; it wasn't an official race, and no dedicated follow
car. Sorry.

Follow-up to r.b.rides ;(

Self-consolation for fatties: "I'm more an Ullrich type of
rider". (still, bmi 22.5 isn't too bad. Should drop to 21.5
in the summer).

No no no, that would be very fredly. It's a 'Le Coq Sportif'
jersey. You are what you wear.
