  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?

    Carl 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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Who said anything about drawing a line straight across the
    state? We'll take in the coastal range up to, say, Lodi...
    aw heck, why even include the central valley at all? Give
    Sacramento to LA as well. Just run all the way up the coast
    to, say, Red Bluff... then cut across to the Sierras, and
    head back down south as far as Lone Pine. Everything on the
    edges and extreme north is ours; they get the the south and
    the valley.
