  1. Since he's so often pilloried in R.B.R., I thought I'd point out an
    example of class from Robbie McEwen.

    Quoted message said:

    From velonews.com:

    It was thought that McEwen would add to his impressive stage tally of
    11 wins, but the Queensland Tour de France sprint champion, riding for
    Davitamon Lotto, said, he, too, was cheering for a White win.

    "He's worked for me at world championships and Olympic Games - there
    was no way I was going to chase him down; I wanted to leave that to the
    Europeans," McEwen said.

    I have no problem with the guy, but there are those who might point out
    that one with true class would not have to point out to the press that
    they did not chase.

    I really don't like McEwen but that was classy for sure.

    It would depend on the context of why he pointed it out. If he was asked why
    he didn't chase White down, that is part of the answer.

    An hour and a quarter before the first Robbie-can't-win post shows up.

    Damn, that's slow.
