Making Statements: Three Cheers to Versus

Fun Tour... Even the last stage was not without controversy when Lance decided to show some fashion sense which turned into JerseyGate. But I will say, Versus had some really good coverage, its sad that its over. I really enjoy coming home from work and watching the stage of the day-it was a good 3 weeks. This commercial was one of my favorites, the full version only seemed to air during the morning showings of the stage in between breaks from Paul and Phil.




Based on my recent twitter readings, it seems that Christian VdV will be headed to the Vuelta. Maybe a Chicagoan on a podium? Plenty of climbing to come...until then.

For the love of the suffer,

Making Statements: Stage 16 Jens

Jens being Jens. If you look up hardman in the dictionary you get this picture.

So then the broom wagon pulled up and was like, “Do you want to just get in?” And I said, “Oh no, I don’t need YOU!” But there I am with blood spurting out my left elbow and no bike. Finally, the race organizers got me a bike, but it was this little yellow junior bike. It was way too small for me and even had old-fashioned toe-clip pedals. But that is the only way I could get down the mountain, so I had to ride it for like 15-20 kilometers until I finally got to a team car with my bike.
