Dumbass,

If you think those retards invented that, ... well then, you're a
retard too.

Btw,

How are the breast inspections going? There are some very hot podium
girls these days.

The German TV stations are threatening to stop broadcasting porn involving
podium girls with breast implants.

It isn't a paradox, it is definitional.

There is a difference between being "fit" and having the freakish
"super-fit-ness" needed to race bikes.

I just did his tour (the one following the subject of the article), and it was fantastic. I strongly recommend Cinghiale (http://www.cinghiale.com/): everyone, even a few who didn't ride at all, had a good time.

I did a relatively easy tour, but I went hard on the hills, and did some extra on my own after the main rides, and I came out with some fairly good (for me) fitness.

WHAT?! From the site:

the 20th anniversary of Andy's Gavia win."

You're going to have to surrender to the critical mass of the
Cheney-Rumsfeld doctrine (if you repeat something often enough it becomes
true/reality is malleable).

Expensive. And one week seems so short.

It is expensive for a bike vacation, it's true. You're obviously paying for more than just the hotel room and a route sheet....

When I went, we (I was there with my girlfriend) spent an extra week in Italy, on our own. Which was also great, and obviously a lot cheaper.

Nevertheless, the money spent on the Cinghiale week will not be regretted. Folks spend more fueling up their SUV's for the year (I don't have a car).

This sounds like quite a distant and exotic training location. Did you
wear your team colours, or black kit?

If you know what I mean,
