I lost picture today just as they were getting to the sprint
I'm confident Le Jet can do it....thats why they call him that, right? Because he can jet up the climbs
Uh, wrong race??
Le jet fuel
What a disappointment
"A familiar sight at the front of the peloton is Chris Horner's bony chest. He's got his jersey zipped wide open, and is unafraid to bare his pasty Irish skin for the world to see."
hahahahahahahaha
hahahahahahahaha
Voigt is a madman. Balls like churchbells.
Sprinters Gruppeto looks like a fun ride. Freakin Italians talk with their hands even when on a bike.

He didn't seem to be comfortable on the climbs. He said he was there to support Levi but was on his wheel most of the time. Hopefully that doesn't mean much. As much as I don't like Lance I want to see him do well enough to contend,
so Contedor can put the royal smack-down on him.
Hahahaha, what a friggin ugly bike!

Reminds me of this:
It could use some of Burley's Bee stickers.
The desire to claim a Giro d'Italia stage victory saw Thomas Voeckler attack with 12 kilometres remaining in stage three. He was soon accompanied by local boy Davide Malacarne (Quick Step), who had also announced he'd try to be noticed during his first Giro, after finishing second in the Presidential Tour of Turkey.
The pair was happy to see some reinforcement arrive but the new front group didn't co-operate well together. "I don't understand these guys who don't play their chance to go for a stage win," complained Voeckler.
The Frenchman was even more surprised that Astana's Levi Leipheimer didn't give it his all. "He wanted to be nice to me and he told me that he was afraid of me," he said. "Afraid of what? If he thinks that I'm able to beat him on the general classification of the Giro, hes totally wrong."
Desperate to take a Giro stage win, Voeckler was clearly frustrated in Valdobbiadene. "It's a pity because there aren't many stages for riders like us," he said. "We really had an opportunity to anticipate the sprinters today.
"I actually also wanted to do the same thing as [Giovanni] Visconti did with two kilometres to go but I didn't have the gas by then," he added. "Anyway, it didn't work out for him either. It means it was the right thing to try earlier."
I'm gonna go on record and say a custom painted bike is a far cry from tony the tiger there.
Hahahaha, what a friggin ugly bike!

where are you guys getting your live feeds?
I don't think they are going to be able to drop Levi. He was looking pretty calm during that whole thing. I predict Levi takes the pink on Stage 12, he may lose it again but he'll take it back on Stage 21.
Lance is doing very well considering, he hasn't been able to hang with the main GC guys, but he hasn't totally blown up either. Curious how he will be climbing in the mid teens (stages). I be he starts looking better, and if he does maybe he'll have what he needs for the TDF.

I'm sure Levi blurted out "J'ai peur" when they were rolling at 30mph.
Wow cool picture!
Sitting on the top tube lowers your center of gravity. Leaning over the bars increase your aerodynamics. BTW, no one corners like this.I do not have balls big enough to descend like this
I used to descend like this, when I was by myself on glass smooth roads. It looks like it is drizzling.
The overbite also creates a vortex that prevents separation of the boundary layer going over your shoulder.
the new Astana kit:
Teh lolz. Blanking out sponsor names in response to not getting paid.

is that a joke?the new Astana kit:

No. Sponsors no payee, sponsors no lookee.
5th guy back missed the memothe new Astana kit:

He's the only Kazakh rider on the team...and Johan said he understood why he didn't blank out the sponsors names...
"Een Soviet Union, bike break joo."
Linky...
The negotiations are not going so well.
So far, instead of the riders salaries, the federation has offered Borat's sister to the team, number 4 prostitute in all of Kazakhstan, and a goat.

Of course the big rumor is this was an F-you to Kazakh because Brunyeel has new sponsors lined up to create a new team. The bigger shocker is that they may not invite Contador to the party.
Of course not, he doesn't want to be Armstrong's domestique
