Complaining about the TTT - cyclingnews.com reports : "[Matthew] White was definitely not impressed. "Things were working out alright [up to Popovych's crash] but that was a ridiculous f***ing team time trial, that's what it was. Have you seen the course? There is no f***ing need to have a course like that," he blasted." Advice to program-planned racers : take up drag racing. At least there, your vocabulary will find a more accepting home. -- Bonne route ! Sandy Verneuil-sur-Seine FR

Otherwise, nice to see an organizer break-up the regular TTT blah course and try something a little more challenging. Discovery crashes. I believe an Euskitel rider went down on the final hairpins to. Lampre and Liquigas looked fab - leave it to the italians to enjoy and excel on a challenging course (great bike handlers). And a nice start to Giro. Not your typical TTT leaders, McEwen and Patacchi divide up the first two sprints, great weather, no PED issues, so far.

Not being very fast on the bike, but sometimes getting up to an abnormal speed on flat terrain I am surprised at how much more difficult particular maneuvours become, both because of traction concerns and how much faster the road throws up features to be negotiated. Then I think about the fast guys at speed for hours working those turns. Bike handling seems to be a skill neglected by some who should know better. I enjoy watching the pros go at it. > And a nice start to Giro.

It certainly wasn't your run-of-the-mill TTT course, but that did make it interesting. -- tanx, Howard Never take a tenant with a monkey. remove YOUR SHOES to reply, ok?

I read of him criticizing the Tour of Flanders and criteriums at the Coors Classic as too dangerous. -- JT **************************** Remove "remove" to reply Visit http://www.jt10000.com ****************************
