Most embarrassing Tour moments

[SLAVE of THE STATE]

I liked it when the sausage creature got caught by LANCE in the
opening ITT. What is your favorite?

Plus, when you figure that LANCE was a clean hard-working rider who
never tested positive, and Jan was a doper-slacker, it makes it
especially satisfying.

I give honorable mention to Lemond's virtual wins.

Polentier getting caught trying to substitute someone else's urine for
his own during the dope control after taking the yellow jersey on Alpe
d'Huez in 1978.

Indurain, figuring out that 55% wasn't good enough anymore, bonking while
trying to keep up with Mr. 60% on Hautacam. Throwing away the water bottle
*after* taking the penalty was priceless.

The 1932 Tour, when Schmorgausboard stopped at the brothel in Pau, thinking
he had 65 minutes when in fact he only had 24 minutes 30 seconds, and took
time for a follow-up blowjob, thereby surrendering the lead. Ahhh the good
old days, before Viagra.

There's Laurent Fignon, France 2, July 8, 2008, 2:35 p.m (I'm
paraphrasing).: "In the time trial, riders will use special freewheels
because they don't always need 9 speeds."

Laurent Fignon today: "In time trials, riders use special freewheels
because they do not always need 9 speeds." "Cunego seems a little
high, he should put a 650c wheel at the front."

New winner. 2008, stage 5, peloton fails to chase
down a three man break that was out for 200 km.
On a clear, windless, flat stage the peloton
fails to track down a break with 100 seconds on
the peloton and 40 km to go. Sad.

Actually left the Place de la Nation in order to get back to the room and
see the final laps on the Champs since there wasn't enough time to go clear
across town and see the end of the race.

But nothing stops Chung from inventing a good story.

Dumbass -


55% wasn't Indurain's problem. He lost to other guys he would've
tooled in previous years. There were plenty of 60%ers that he beat
'91-95.

Dude had on a few extra pounds and wasn't able to shed it before the
mountains. That **** happens when you get old.

Indurain wasn't the type (psychologically) who could stay skinny year
round. At the end of the year, he knew it was time to quit.

Damn refractory period! People forget how difficult racing was back
in the day, when a lot of racers had full time jobs. I guess poor
Schmorgausboard had an out of town regular stop in and couldn't take
the full day off - I hope he was at least given a nice tip.

Those old timers really were hard men.

Not yet. He's not extremely comfortable with my version of history. But
once he figures out that properly illustrated, and with a companion
"instructional" DVD made by PSFBFH (http://tinyurl.com/yvcbzm), it would
sell millions, he might come around. No pun intended.

He also got married that year and in Spain, or at least to Mig,

Oh, I thought 55% referred to his body fat %. Last time I could read the

THe 9-sp comment was very strange -- I don't get that at all.

On the Cunego comment, maybe he meant that _on a bike_ made for a 650c
front, that the top of the headset could be lower, and thus the bars
too, then allowing the rider's upper body to be lower. But that seems
a little extreme as a solution. How big is Cunego?

I would smack you around with my Tanita to teach you a lesson, if I
hadn't crushed it last month. Does Assos make a fat monitor? Or

Yes, he meant that a front 650 could lower his position as was done
circa 1983 when he was riding. On the othe hand, it's been years since
rules disallow different size wheels.

I haven't seen the video yet, but why do you consider the chase a
failure? If the catch comes too soon, then they then have to control the
counter attacks too. If left to the end the sprint is more controled,
the three teams away get more publicity. The viewers get an exciting
finale. Everyone wins and is entitled to one of those stuffed lions.

I'd say they timed it perfectly. The last man was caught with 100 metres
to go. What race were you watching?

Because the peloton had complete information and a clear road.
They played it cute and safe. Safe is on the couch watching
the tube. These guys, riders and DSs, presumably are in it for
the rough and tumble. They were never serious about the chase,
tried to finesse it, and ended with egg on their faces.

Yes, I know. So let them control the counter attacks. Put up
the pace so high counter attacks have to fail. They have
already swallowed the break; hence are moving along briskly.

The finale could be exciting, but this one was spoiled by incompetence.

I really don't know what race you were watching. They did catch the
break and you got your field sprint, McWhiner didn't place and all is
right in the world. Having things pan out the way they did is 100x
better than catching the break with 10 km to go so you know far in
advance that it will end up in a sprint. This Tour, breakaways on
flattish stages actually have a chance, which makes them far more
interesting and suspenseful.

Escapades historically do well in bad weather,
but not on fine days when, presumably, the sprinter's
teams want a clear shot at the finish line. Did
the sprinters lie to us when they said they wanted
this one? Or did the peloton fall to the prisoner's
dilemma? Not very exciting when the 200 km breakaway
pips you at the line. Gnaw, this one is incompetence.

For the third time: they did catch the break. The break got pipped
itself. Vogondy had a bit more heart than probably anticipated by anyone
including the field but they caught him at 50 m from the line. Maybe the
only one from the field affected by this was Kirchen who led from a long
long way out (presumably when he saw Vogondy still ahead).

Now I get it. I forgot how kooky the bike rules have gotten and don't

Tivo and LIVEDRUNK(tm) must be related.

You want this:

I am not jellous. I am all pumped up from using the mouse.

Dumbass,

You need to wait for the new Assos slimming girdle.

Dear William,

C'mon, that's nice, but I've just finished reading the "Steel frames and
le Tour" thread. Given our long and storied history, I wouldn't be
surprised if I'd have to do something FAR stupider than buying one of
these to be in to be in the running for "RBR Village Idiot". I doubt it,
but I wouldn't be surprised.

That last paragraph is an attempt to capture something from that thread
in condensed form. It works, at least to the extent that even I don't
know what I'm going on about. But I've taken the coward's way out. I
can't even conceive of what it would take to emulate the fogelbot.
Besides, it took me 15 minutes to torture that last paragraph into
shape. Even if I could emulate a fogelbot, there's just no way I could
keep up.

Despondently Yours,
Fredulina Fredericco

To be in the running for "RBR Supreme Village Idiot" my opinion is that you
would have to buy a BodPod, then post to RBR asking for how to use it in
training for triathlons. If you can troll Chung into the discussion on
statistics and work some aspect of velodromes into the thread, you'll be
set.

If you already do that, I apologize for pointing out the obvious.

The chances of me doing that are apparently 50-50.

You forgot: asking advice on how to use the BodPod on your upcoming date.

I wonder if the BodPod warranty covers vigorous repeated pounding.
