  1. I think I have 3 of Lances TdF wins on tape. I don't ever watch them
    because of all the tape wasted with podium shots........like who gives a
    [censored]. If you cut those out, it would cut the footage by 50%. And it's
    yesterday's news, and tainted with all the drug use that has been outed
    since those years......so you know it's fake. "Breaking Away", is the only
    cycling tape I would probably watch. You know it's all kind of boring,
    ........it's too bad they can't really capture what the race is all about.
    Now if they did what Nascar does, and had helmet mounted cameras (they're
    tiny), and listen to the riders talk, instead of that insane euro racket on
    the side of the road, it could be interesting. So I'm thinking, that's why
    they try to spice it up with police raids on riders rooms, to catch 'em
    red-handed with their drugs. Kind of like the show, "COPS." The devil and
    the angel on the side of the road has "jumped the shark", so where do they
    go from there? Chris Carmichael's training spots, make me yawn
    uncontrollably, and we know it's all hocus pocus, it was the t-patch that
    Chris put on his balls that made him go. So will I watch this year? If the
    cops bust some of riders, maybe.....and I would love to see Riis in
    handcuffs too, but if they pretend that's it's a real race, no.

    Dude, the Tour starts tomorrow and your troll form sucks. I'd
    re-evaluate my preparation if I were you.

    RAAM types don't get super-motivated in case its puts their necks out of
    joint.

    I suppose you are still making up your sleep debt from FRAAM.
    You can tune in the third week if they have any riders left.
