The photo is completely ruined by the U-boat 29 commander in the church
socks and cruiser shorts. It's a good thing he's wearing limo-tint
sunglasses on an overcast day too.

I bet you at least 70% of those Vaseline users in that photo imagine
they're Andy Hampster going over the Gavia Pass.

This photo belongs in the Mapplethorpe gallery.

It isn't a cool picture unless John Forrest Tomlinson says it's a cool
picture. Oh wait.

Pull your pants up and put your fleshlight away. That's not how we talk
in here, Miss Manners.

I would merely like to note that those are the most ridiculously huge
shoulder numbers I have ever seen. If those are necessary, I wonder if
the UCI shouldn't just give up and make CXers use MTB-style front number
plates.

This field was so awesome that you may please note this 14-year old who
led the race for a few laps:

Not that I should talk so much, what with the finishing 30th-ish in
local B CX races.

Sure, winning a stage is WAY more important than winning the Giro.

I'm not sure I get that one. Does it have something to do with the fact
that Breukink was doped to the gills when he beat Atle Kvasvol at the
Tour DuPont?

Erik Van Der Breukink won the Gavia stage!!!11!1! Johan van de Velde was
first on the col!! But he did the descent in the back of a campervan!!
And then popped out around a corner and rode the last 100 m home!! By
then, Breukink had long won the stage!! So Hampsten LOST!! Mandy
Hempstoned is a LOSER, Erik Van Der Breukink is a HERO!!

Steven is of course referring to this photoset because, harking back to
my snarks about the US Nats shoulder numbers, these guys actually are
using MTB-style front-mounted number plates.

But I also noticed there appears to be some light snow falling, though
the course itself is clear of snow.

Hopefully JT will be along to tell us if the photos are cool,

Holy bananas, you mean the gorilla has been brainwashed this whole time?
I was just going by THAT hampster poster:

Let me read up a bit on this Gavia Pass nonsense and then my people will
contact your people. You might get a retraction from me, but I'm gonna
bury it on page 87 and then have Bill Staplton send you something to
sign that says you acknowledge I was right anyway.
