Notice the weird ghost images? There is the double image of Merckx' brake and hand but there's also some floating images of two men's faces that aren't anywhere in the original picture (p. 89 ) or in the car except as those floating faces. Very weird.

    That is weird, do you have a link to the original? I'm not sure why they'd want to photoshop it, but it seems they have.

    Buy the magazine (should still be on newstands) and go to page 89. :)

    Maybe it's Tyler Hamilton's vanishing twins?

    It's weird isn't it. I looked in the orig. picture and they don't appear anywhere else. :shock:

    Just like the race results, you can't trust what you're seeing anymore. Photoshop is EPO for picture editors and art directors.

    Procycling's going downhill faster that Samuel Sanchez, Lance on cover again for f*ck's sake. I used to think there were other cyclists other than Big Tex, must have been mistaken.

    You may laugh but I watched the programme on Channel 5 about vanishing twins and it was a bit worrying - tho' the 2 people they featured were women.
