I barely use twitter but I logged on this morning and added Mr L Armstrong to see what he had to say about his performance yesterday...

Do any other pro racers use twitter? Im new to watching pro cycling and am thinking these twitter messages, I might get a few interesting insights.

    What would Cadel's twitter state?

    Maybe:

    "I thought about attacking today"

    "Some one nearly trod on my dog - boy I could kill them!"

    "Can't wait to see the new Tintin movie"

    Basso wins the award for most polite cyclist and Fakecadelevans used to be good.

    I prefer stuff like: http://twitter.com/batmansbelt
    It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.

    darth vader is good (although nowt to do with cycling)

    Armstrong doesn't half promote things.

    Wegelius is brill! I think he's the bestest one of the cyclists.
  • the best cyclist on twitter for his content is Chris Horner - daily link to his blog for his view of the day's stage....

    imo of course

    and J Bruyneel tends to get some good stage pics up and race-radio comments
