  1. Roberto Heras does his annual tdf disappearing act. Heras joins the club of
    over-rated ex-postys, such as Levi, Tyler and Livingston. What a relief
    that we don't have to be tortured to watch the hapless Beloki, and the
    temperamental Once squad. The old Mr. Crow is showing us maybe how
    over-rated the rest of peloton is. Sacrifice is a word that is unknown in
    the fat and happy peloton. So Mr. Crow has passed the record that Indurain
    set with the most days in yellow. You know I always thought the Big Mig was
    a fake. Too fat and too slow, would be his discription if he was in today's
    peloton while he was in his prime.

  2. LA has TIED big Mig's record in yellow, he will not pass it until he
    gets the 9 minutes back on O'Grady.

    He has been at it for quite some time and unlike most Tour idiots he trains
    for it year 'round just like his deity.

    Actually Henry probably has a Genius IQ.
    I said "probably". Legate I am sure does.

    Henry is a black comic, supremely sarcastic and dark.
    A "comedian noir" that only the French could love.

    So, let me get this right,
    K. Gringioni (Henry) = Callistus V. is not an equation?

    Damn it.

    How do you know V's from Burbank? I've been there often.

    A couple of years ago Kevin was riding the San Francisco GP for Telecom. He
    came in something like 4th or 5th. Everyone else was torn completely to
    pieces. I looked at Kevin and he looked as fresh as he did in the morning at
    the start. His jersey and shorts weren't sweat stained. His eyes didn't have
    that washed out look that everyone else including George did.

    There's no doubt in my mind that if Kevin had been properly handled that he
    would have been at least as good as Tyler and I suspect he'd be quite a bit
    better.

    Ain't the Bay Area grand? You can ride around all day in cool foggy,
    drizzle then bust a sweat climbing above the marine layer, then nearly
    freeze to death on the way back down, back under the marine layer. Who
    needs sunny southern California.

    Why Gilroy? Is it the garlic?

    Can't believe norteños would not claim the Monterey Peninsula.

    Because beyond Gilroy is... Fresno. Oh dear.

    Well, I was thinking of the inland side of the hills, so I'll agree that
    Monterey is indeed part of the north. But that's it! Nothing else...

    Uh, no. San Luis Obispo is the dividing line. We'd never cede the garden
    spots of Pozo & Creston to Southern California.

    Yes, the south state is a place we're glad we only have to visit
    occasionally-like when we want a little cosmetic tune-up, or get a
    craving for rush-hour stop and go traffic at 2 in the afternoon.

    Eventually the smart ones move east to the other side of the valley and
    get to enjoy the rides done by mssr's LeMond, 7-11, and newbies like
    Klasna and Horner.

    I'd have to vote against this because if you'll go that far south
    you'll have to start considering Bakersfield too and no one wants to go
    down that road-not even the people in Fresno.
