so, forgive vino? before he popped i kinda figgered he was dirty, but as with diluca, really liked his racing.

also, saw this:

The fact Vinokourov that trained recently in Tenerife, a reputed hideout for professional athletes looking to cheat, has not helped quell suspicion.

and then:

garmin don't have the rice snax on hand any more, they need all the help they can get!!

the testers would be all over vino, surely? i was trying to think of the last (not lance) guy of that age to be competitive and could only think of ...rebellin, heh.

RESPECT A JOEY NEGRO (haitch), Tuesday, 27 April 2010 15:35 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah, he claims to have been tested countless times since coming back:

Personally I was gutted that he won and glad to hear he was booed.

no, he wrote that hes been tested more than 30 times.

i hate it when dopers lie about how many times they get tested, as if we believe them anymore. come clean vino, how many times have you REALLY been tested?

eh, dont work too hard just stick at 300 watts for that last climb. that 5500 foot one. that lasts for 90 minutes.

easy!

I'm not ure if this advert is shown in the states but is certainly a frequent one on Eurosport. Transitions Lenses transition Tyler Farrar into the boring junior accountant he would have been if he'd never found cycling. Not alarming like naked Fillipo Pozzato hawking sidi shoes but hardly the most effective advert for photochromatic lenses which don't exactly come with a cool image to start with.

pozzato is gross

wilter, Thursday, 29 April 2010 13:40 (sixteen years ago)

ive actually had a set of the transitions "drivewear" lenses for a couple of years and will strongly rep the optics for riding. and great for skiing, they are polarized and get xxx dark on bright cold days.

Ace sprinter Mark Cavendish admitted he let emotions get the best of him Thursday when he gave an Italian version of a two-finger salute as he crossed the line victorious in the second stage at the Tour de Romandie.

Eh? That's the British version.

What would the Italian version be? Flicking the teeth with the thumb?

VN: What is your strongest quality?
Greipel: I think it’s just the power. I had a good sprint today. I had 1820 watts in the final sprint.

on pinups-- as i dealt with my skinsuit tonight i looked more closely at it-- i guess in 2003 i had made 6 tiny dots on with a sharpie on it to show where i should pin in the event i was solo and shy to ask for pinup. luckily, they were on the correct side. i gave it a shot, put on the suit and...perfection! not a ripple, not a flap.
