    That kid is a super talent. Great performance at San Diego World cup. He was in thick of things all
    week at Pomona. Great talent for a 19 year old to mix it up with Gordo !

  3. You guys are both high! Look at Tillman's place. The guy weighs 200 lbs and spent a week in the
    hospital less than a month ago. Plus, he made TF cry in the Pursuit.

    Are you being sarcastic ? I hope so, otherwise:

    -Are you saying Tillman rocks? Maybe, but he still got beat by Tyler (and Gord)

    -Pursuit ? It's not like the best TT riders in the US contest the pursuit, again, not to diss
    Tillman, but how many NRC level TTs does he win?

    Velvet -

    If you're gonna get on a team, it's time to start with some basic tongue exercises.

    Lesson #1: take a beer bottle (not Mickey's Big Mouth) and pretend like you're doing the alphabet.

    All that muscle may benefit Tillman more in a pursuit than in a road TT, since it likely contributes
    to a high anaerobic capacity - important even in a 4k pursuit, not so relevant in a road TT.

    Sbeih hasn't been unable to de-throne Tillman in the pursuit of late (although I gather the track is
    not his focus), but won the national TT a few years ago.

    Despite Mr. Carney's position above, I think he'd agree that it's good to see young talent like
    Farrar come along - isn't this just his first year as a senior, or something?

    My point was that Tillman does well in the pursuit partly because it isn't as competitive as
    NRC events.

    I don't consider Hollywood Mike's result to be "more impressive" than Farrar's, hospitalization or
    not. Of course this is just a sprint, and Farrar can do more than just ride crits.
