Uh-huh. I don't like him as a person - at least in so far as his personality is reflected by television interviews - but he's an amazing bike racer. With 5 Km to go it looked completely impossible for McEwan to get back in... -- simon@jasmine.org.uk (Simon Brooke) http://www.jasmine.org.uk/~simon/ ;; All in all you're just another nick in the ball -- Think Droid

I didn't watch, but was reading the cyclingnews "live" coverage later, and when they were saying the peloton was not strung out at all with a few K to go I thought "Oh, McEwen may come back." Bingo. But I don't like the guy either. Great rider too. -- JT **************************** Remove "remove" to reply Visit http://www.jt10000.com ****************************

Don't you ever wonder how often other sprinters are fouled up by their own train, while an opportunist like Robbie ignores his team mates when somebody else has the better wheel? Regardless, Robbie's speed coming to the line made the rest of the field look like they were going backward. --Mike-- Chain Reaction Bicycles www.ChainReactionBicycles.com

Thor Hushovd got second on the far right ahead of Boonen. -- Michael Press

Today it sounds like he had to use his "train" -- they helped him catch up in the last 10K. Last year didn't he have an awesome leadout man in the big tours? Steegmans I think. -- JT **************************** Remove "remove" to reply Visit http://www.jt10000.com ****************************
