Contador, Vino and Pereiro all smiling in Pisa

Looks like a forced smile from Contador in the first picture. Along the lines of 'I really don't want to be here'!

Did you take these pics? If not and after the fiasco with the voeckler interview I thought you might have learnt a lesson and at least acknowledged the copyright!

Are you 50+? Are you a school teacher? You are a bit sad.

Maybe there was no copyright.

If you had been around here long enough, you would know that I always put the copyright on the photos if it is available.

You'll know for next time.

bsm2dj

There is always some form of copyright. You have taken them from somewhere and so it should be acknowledged with at least a link.

Why you have to jump to wild conclusions about how old I am and what I do for a living is beyond me. You truly are pathetic with your retorts...please stop using the line of how many posts I have and how long I have been around. I regularly read the forum but don't feel compelled to always contribute. In fact, I quite like watching other people making fools of themselves...

nice pics, thanks for sharing

What bike is Bertie on? Is he still on his Trek?

I notice Oscar has got a Spesh already, but Vino still has a Trek.

woop 1000th post..

It looks like there is a mixture of bikes - if you look in the background in the first pic between contador and Piero , you can see a trek there

and in the second pic the green dude is on a cannondale still - *shrugs*

Vino, I thought you were a rock hard, Rufty Tufty Kazak ??

The Spanish Stick Insect has less cloths on than you, what's happening ???

Get them calves on diaplay man !!

I just went through your 13 posts. The vast majority of them are replying to me.

CONCLUSION

You have two names on this forum and are so try and go after under this name as you can't/wont do it under your other name.

Now that is super sad.

Grow up, if that is possible.

Do you ever think you may overestimate your own importance just a teeny bit?

So what would you conclude?

The irony of telling somebody else to grow up straight after using the phrase 'now that is super sad'!

For clarification, I only have one username and wouldn't be so pathetic and immature to have two names just so that I can go after you. You really do think you are something you are not...

frenchfighter

How do you explain that 9 of your posts out of 14 are directed at me...VERY odd.

Nothing more for me to say here.

It wouldn't have entered my head in the first place to trawl through somebody's posts. I'm just not that fussed. It's an internet forum.

Perhaps he tends to just read posts rather than contributing and when he reads your posts you just wind him up the wrong way.

Perfectly understandable given your immature approach to debate.

Contador's is a Trek too. If you look closely just where his helmet ends you can see the T's on the front end

Echo et les Boniments

I think Contador's contractually obligated to ride a Trek until December 31, even though he just signed a lucrative deal with Specialized.

paulcuthbert

Trek's are better

gabriel959

Trek's warranty is utter crap though compared to Specialized. Not that he is going to break one at 50-odd kg.

fjellrunner

I used to like all these riders, then one by one they disappointed me, namely by joining Astana. Really Oscar, do you think that's a good move?

Oh, come ON. I know it's the off-season and ff-baiting is this forum's second favourite sport, but now it's just getting silly. If everyone on the internet sought permission before reposting a photo, there would be a grand total of 12 photos on the internet.

In fact, the internet probably wouldn't exist. Youtube? Yeah right. I was reading this article in the Guardian today and it links to a dodgy Russian video site streaming full episodes of South Park! Hardly in the same league as some happy snaps of Contador out training.

Anyway, back on topic, I'm guessing the Liquigas rider (Stangelj, I presume) has been on the same winter training diet that Der Kaiser used to use :shock:

Well, you're an interesting poster, to say the least, but I'm not sure you're as highly rated
