Guest colonel Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 'Ol stumpy cant get enough attention it seems. guess who was at #1 on the list? I got the mag so dont worry and it kiled me when I saw the front cover of CS and PC. thought it might...hey' date=' can you remember the name of that swedish chick?[/quote'] Emilia falin (sp?) or something.

SwissVan Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 who is the most powerful????????? lance. Someone Call?
Wonder Woman Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 I'm curious what they mean by most powerful??? There are sprinters and climbers and TTlists....I certainly can't imagine Oscar doing too well in the hills against the pro boytjies.....or in a sprint for that matter, actually can't see it at all ever???? Powerful for one leg maybe yes, but cycling you kinda need two.... Even look at Graham Diesel, he fought for a long time to ride with the able bodied cyclists and he has both legs only missing an arm. Imagine NEVER been able to stand on a bike...have to sprint seated....not that easy!!
Guest Big H Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Like the caption says...... LANCE IS IN CONTROL..... again!!!!!!
Matchstix Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 so i was leafing through the latest edition of procycling yesterday' date=' and i turned to the mag's feature on the 50 most powerful men in cycling. i spot a pic of blade runner...wtf? the words that went with the pic seemed so tenuous. to paraphrase, if oscar is allowed to compete and beat able-bodied athletes it'll open the doors to gene-doping...a meeting of "biology and artifice", the writer called it. [/quote'] The guy is an Idiot and did no research on prosthetics. and should be given a bs
mtb_Josh Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 Imagine that... old carbon leg on a carbon bike?? Hmm... Never knew he could ride a bike. You learn something?odd everyday I went to school with oscar - that guy does everything! Rugby, motorcycles, u name it!

Well, that's a bit doff.....I've never seen him influence anyone to ride a bike.....even though I don't like him, there is only one man that comes tops in that then and we all know him too well.
