Psychopaths would enjoy reading this thread about themselves no matter whether positive or negative

 

Scary

 

That's the character of the man ????

Not even the fact that he is riding a Spez?

 

I hardly think riding the best bike in the world is cause for a negative comment :-)

You know you are cool when you make a spez look good,

Talking of psychopaths.... I wonder how many of the haters here happily support trophy hunting?

 

Now if someone had proof of LA being a animal trophy hunting fan, I would also become a hater!!

I donno do his wives and girlfriends count as trophies, because he did a lot of "hunting" in his time[emoji6] [emoji102] Edited September 23, 2016 by Gen

Then we have to give credit where it is due.  Remember he is firing blanks apparently.

[madmarc]

can someone rearrange the order in correct chronology

 

*BigH getting booted (the last time)

*Kernel leaving

*Etolls

*Lance on oprah

 

BigH - Hahaha my old Campy hating mate - Die Padbouer. I sometimes wonder where he is now.

His insistence that it was made put of pewter amused me.

 

The Oom's doing just fine :-)

When I see Lance I see the result of what rejection does to a person. He was rejected by his father and I believe what he did was to show everybody around him he is good enough.

 

Obviously he went to far way to far. I feel sorry for the guy. Watched TDF since 1986 and when he came along I actually enjoyed the fact that he put cycling on the map again.

 

Eish now we are on the wrong map. Anyway just my thoughts on the man. I hope he can be forgiven for what he did and also forgive himself.

Similar story here - started watching in '89 - the year Fignon was "robbed". Cycling went through a dull phase (IMO) when Big Mig dominated (no disrespect to him) and LA certainly made things entertaining - along with Pantani etc.

 

Having ridden L'Alpe d'Huez myself this video clip from the T de F 2003 was motivational and awe inspiring. It was one of my all time fav clips. You have to see the left hand turn at the bottom and the first 500m of the climb yourself to apprecitate what US Postal actually did here.

 

Of course when it turned out to be complete bollocks I was more than a little disappointed!

That was a nail biter. One of the only times I know of when the TDF last stage was the timetrail.

 

LeMond won the tour by 8 seconds.

 

You speak about Fignon being robbed. Greg was also robbed as he had to ride shotgun for Bernard Hinault that tour before he got shot by his brother in law. I believe he could have won that tour if he was not told to hold back to allow Bernard Hinault to won his last tour.

I believe they had a gentlemans agreement . . . .

LOL.

 

There was an agreement. Bernard must won. That next year never came if my memory is any good because he (Greg) was injured.

 

Greg was in the tour with the Z Team when he came back. Something like that.

Crazy bike - crazy kit - crazy sunglasses!
