  1. It seems that everyone in rbr is agreed that Lance is beginning to get bad legs from the ageing
    process. Maybe the postal team can drag his butt to a 5th tour victory, but I predict that this will
    be Lance's last tour as a contender. What American will be Lance's successor? Will Iban Mayo be the
    future 5 tour winner?

  2. I smell a stinky leetle troll.

  3. Not to worry, USPS will buy him half a dozen more Roberto Heras's to push him to the top of
    every climb.

    About time Heras went with a team where he's not babysitting, methinks. After the way he came back
    up to Armstrongs group to give his boss a push when Armstrong was being picked on by Beloki, I
    reckon he's clearly the best rider on the USPS team.

    What next, will USPS buy Beloki and Ullrich as well?

    Nah. They'll get clones made in Scotland.

  9. I remember vaguely something about them looking at Ullrich when his teams and contracts kept falling
    through...

    Main question is, will the REAL, ACTUAL USPS get my "Tour" pre-view issue to me before *&$#ing
    August????

    Not everyone is agreed.

    Assuming he wins this year, if LANCE has perfect preparation and a strong early season next year, he
    has a strong shot. This year has been a teensy bit rocky for LANCE.

    Watch out for Tyler, if he doesn't retire early out of frustration. And Levi as well.

    Too bad about those time trials though. That's a big reason why Heras is Postal. We'll probably see
    how it's helped him in the Tour of Spain.

    Yep. You got it. No need to even worry about watching the rest of the Tour.

    Head back over to rbr and tell 'em they're all right.

    There ya go, right over there...

    Don't let that door tap ya on the way out...

    Thanks for dropping by.
