tour de france

What a disaster this year.
Now Rabobank is sending Rasmussen,
the race leader,
home.
They haven't got a positive sample on him,
but they say he broke internal rules.
Oh man,
I don't know what to think anymore.

I saw my mate, the other day.
He said to me, he's seen the white Pele.
So I ask, who is he?
He goes by the name of Wayne Rooney

to be honest, you have to be on something to even think of cycling 2,200 miles in 3 weeks. It's mental. It's like Paula Radcliffe doing 2 marathons a day for three weeks in the middle of summer.

At the moment they don't know what to do. they need to either crack down on drugs hard, or let them do what they want. at the moment they are stuck somewhere in the middle.

It's still an awesome event though.

Spot on Rah.

Personally i'd go down the 'take what you like' route.
At least then everyone knows where they stand.

The Tour starts again today and all eyes will be on Lance Armstrong as he makes his comeback.

Bradley Wiggins has a great chance to win the first time trial stage.

If Mark Cavendish can repeat last years form then he's got an excellent chance of finishing the Tour as top points scorer and win the Green Jersey.

A great first week for Bradley Wiggins and Lance Armstrong has been little short of sensational.

The riders will be glad to see the back of the Pyranees.
Beautiful to look at but f**k cycling up them!

Wiggins continues his great form.
He's in fourth place at the moment.

Mental day yesterday. A woman gets run over by cop and some loony taking pot shots at riders with a pellet gun.
