sobo Posted July 21, 2003 Posted July 21, 2003 One word to describe Lance... Â "machine" Â I heard he and his wife have sorta patched things up a bit and are back together. Good for them! Quote
Figger_Eight Posted July 21, 2003 Posted July 21, 2003 Props to Tyler and Jan for waiting for him to get back on his bike. Pro cycling is one of the few remaining places to find sportsmanship and professionalism. Quote
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted July 21, 2003 Posted July 21, 2003 Why those saps waited for that lousy Texan shortcutter is beyond this Doctor's reckoning. They shoulda stole his water bottle and bailed! Quote

Fence_Sitter Posted July 21, 2003 Posted July 21, 2003 The fall came with about 6 miles left in the 99-mile stage. Armstrong slammed to the road after a spectator's outstretched bag caught his handlebars. Â f-in dumbass Quote

Woah! They don't wear helmets!? Didn't realise that. I thought they'd do it at least for the aerodynamics. Quote

Not a helmet among the bunch of them. Â But they do for the time trials. Real pointy-back thingies. I think the next time trial is on Saturday. Quote
JoshK Posted July 22, 2003 Posted July 22, 2003 Pretty amazing if you can imagine how fast they get moving downhill on some of those mountain stages. I think I'd be scared to go that fast on a 1cm tire without a helmet! Quote
j_b Posted July 22, 2003 Posted July 22, 2003 helmets are now mandatory for all pro races (after kirilev died this year). they just don't wear them on long uphill (too hot). most riders don't like the new rule though. Quote

Gordonb Posted July 22, 2003 Posted July 22, 2003 That is Tyler Hamilton! He is American. He is the next in line for American dominance after Lance retires. Come on! Don't you know your american riders by site. Quote

Don't you know your american riders by site. the fragile (fra-gil-le) must be italian comment is a nod to the classic christmas story movie. hamilton falls down too much. Quote
