rode my own rhythm to the top."

Translation into modern English: " I have intentionally worsened my
form. I just rode very slow to the top."

dumbass,

you obviously don't know about psychologial warfare.

I wonder how many people have noticed that. Landis and Hincapie did pretty
much the same thing.

Presumably those who didn't bother to read the stage results.

Piepoli's damned impressive this year. Coming into the Dauphine just
after winning two mountain stages in the Giro, and still being fit
enough to do that. And, at 35, surely an honorary fatty master. Makes
you wonder how they would have done if he and not Simoni had been
leading SDV in the Giro.

Landis said that he had the team working for him, was set on a high
placing, and simply blew up.

They're both climbers. So I don't think there'd have been a great deal of
difference. Though Piepoli is certainly a great deal friendlier towards the
camera.
