Well, total domination by CSC and Disco. Took the top nine places between them. Good efforts by McCartney (better than I expected), same with O'Grady. Pretty good TT for a sprinter. Might be a sign that he's rounding out his abilities. Same with Hushovd, within five seconds of Rogers.

Yes, indeed good rides today. I wonder if the winds on the course were anything like the wind we have further North today. Just bad enough to zap even a good downhill.I have never been to Solvang. I wonder what the course was like as far as technical challenges.

Not at all.
Doping trumps a poor diet. Thor is confident in his methods as his team Doctor sat next to him as he consumed mass quantiities.
They all dope--and they all drink beer too!

It was great to see a local boy Jason McCartney crank it up for third place overall and third in the TT. Maybe with the group watching Levi, maybe Jason can have a go at it....... With Horner......

No EPO testing in the EPO Tour!
What a pharmaceutical sporting fraud it truly is!

I've enjoyed the forum more since I put FF on the 'IgnoreList." I suggest others do it also.

Ogrady could always tt, in fact, I would say he is naturally a better tter than Hincapie. In 1998 he finished top 10 in both tts in the tour. The tour is the strongest tt field assembled.
You have to be careful appraising tt strengths based on a few races and the msot recent results. You don't get the benefit of knwoing their training and if they have been on their tt bike in training and working on their treshold.
Van Petegem is probably the best timetrialler in Belgium, but you would not know it. Hoste would be close. Devolder is not bad. Wauters was decent, and so is Vandenbroeck.

Hopefully you were able to catch some of the live video/audio feed at the Tour of California website. Pretty slick. Yes, the wind was howling - with the flags straight out all day.

Do you have a life other than getting on this forum everyday and talking about how very body's a doper. -

Wolfix, great suggestion and complete. Occasionally, FF may have something interesting to say, but the fact that every thread gets hijacked by his spew and attacks, and then the counterpoints, that it really derails the topics within this forum. Kind of like I'm doing now.

I agree, he just about ruins every thread. Carrying on about the same [censored] every time. He should get a life or atleast seek some profesional help -

He needs to be banned. As the racing season starts and we have something to discuss other than doping and the UCI vs. the ASO, we don't need him ranting in every thread. -
