Just before lance started on his ride today he got his bottled topped up by his chaperone from a mineral bottle of water. The camera's clearly showed it and the guy doing the filling seemed quite sheepish when he noticed the cameras had picked up on this.
Or were they stating the obvious.
Anybody else see it, what do you think?. Yes, I'm a very sceptical man :P

    lance ran out of water in his bottle or maybe the juice mix was too strong and he asked his soignouer to top his bottle up with water?

    What exactly were you thinking it was?

    Does lance have a personal contract sponsored by an energy drink?

    in which case the sheepish looks might be that he is contracted to be 'seen' drinking the energy potion and not plain old mineral water!

    I follow the motorbike racing too and it seem that Vale and all are always swigging from massive 'red bull' or 'monster' bottles but I often wonder if they actually are drinking that product or is it something else disguised to meet their contractual commitments

    The England rugby team certainly always drank their SIS products from Lucozade bottles to keep the sponsors happy.
