'Dale Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Yeah, but still the most exciting rider in the peleton, always puts on a good show. Pity Nibali got shelled,...... but the race suits Levi's style,.....which means without 'Berto it will be damn boring.! Nibs like long and steady climbs.The steep short stuff not so much.
splat Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 'Berto takes victory on climbing finish of Stage 3 of Tour de San Luis. hmmm... Despite claiming that he's trying to shed 7.5kg of extra weight and wouldn't be a factor in the Tour de San Luis, Alberto Contador showed his class on the race's first mountaintop finish to take his first victory of 2012 and the race lead. I cant stand that water pistol thing he does!

I cant stand that water pistol thing he does! A, where is he going to lose 7.5kg from? And B, at least that Saxo Bank kit is the best looking kit in the bunch
Wyatt Earp Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I cant stand that water pistol thing he does! It's Spanish sign language for "we shoot the cow, we eat the contaminated meat"
TNT1 Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 It's Spanish sign language for "we shoot the cow, we eat the contaminated meat" Not only in Spain. The other day my kid says to me "you shot it, you eat it."
GrumpyOldGuy Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 hey, grumps, did ya see this:http://www.news24.co...yerton-20120125 No I didnt..........wow, I assume its Bass Lake which is a very popular diving area in Gauteng. Not much in the report but I'll call a mate in the area and ask him, possibly a medical issue, but my cynical brain says "poor training" anyway I'll try find out more, Bass lake is hardly a difficult dive site.
GrumpyOldGuy Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 A, where is he going to lose 7.5kg from? And B, at least that Saxo Bank kit is the best looking kit in the bunch Ha,Ha, yeah, I wonder..................seems he pulled a bit of a Pantani (who never trained the worst four months of winter) and took a few months off, only starting to train again late December........must have been good for him as he looks pretty damn lean and strong to me.
splat Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 A, where is he going to lose 7.5kg from? And B, at least that Saxo Bank kit is the best looking kit in the bunch I will start his weight loss program by chopping those pistolero fingers off!
GrumpyOldGuy Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Hmmm, I see Stefan Schumacher came in 4th, now if you want to talk about controversial riders, he is probably the one. Strange team Christina watches is collecting together,.... Michael Rasmussen and Schumacher in the same team!!
TNT1 Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Strange team Christina watches is collecting together,.... Michael Rasmussen and Schumacher in the same team!! And in a couple of months, Rasmussen will get paid a few million squids by Rabobank, for unfair dismissal when he lied about being in Mexico...
TNT1 Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Strange team Christina watches is collecting together,.... Michael Rasmussen and Schumacher in the same team!! Not so strange. It's like Lance in the same team as, well, anyone that would ride with him...
GrumpyOldGuy Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) And in a couple of months, Rasmussen will get paid a few million squids by Rabobank, for unfair dismissal when he lied about being in Mexico... Yeah, another controversial saga, I see his claim revolves around the fact he was not found positive, and at the time, 2007, there was no law that said he must be removed from the race due to his disappearing act and missing a few controls, apparently that rule was only enforced in 2009,.................if that was the case (personally I dont know) then it would appear Rabobank did act unfairly,.................and it seems the courts agree, as I understand he won his first appearance in court.

Yeah, from what I understand, it's an employment contract thing, has bugger all to do with cycling and doping. Was still awesome to see him going up against Contador, cause it seems like there's very few who can these days. (and I put a marker down, Contador will skate on the current charge...)
GrumpyOldGuy Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 Just as a matter of interest, are Chicken and the young Christina a pair, as in couple, hanging out together.......or is it all professional.? I just wondered because Michael's pasty white skeletal look always creeped me out a bit, and, lets be honest, Christina is an attractive young lady, ..........if they are, hey,... good luck to him, hope it go's well.
