This could be a very long thread, running to 100s of pages. Just wait until the Giro starts...

In the meantime, it's not always so obviously glam:

Maybe she's the reason Pellizotti's blood values went all over the place.

I dunno if blood flow to body parts affects blood values

Just popped back in to check BB hadn't turned it into a thread on doping - thought I check out the photos closely for any needle marks while I was here. Everything seems fine - as you were!

Zee only Podium Girl worth talking about PGGB



Unfortunately the site is no longer available, but it was hilarious

Ahhh - I know that you have been dying to know zee answer to this question, and PGGB will help you once again. What happens to all that delicieux champagne that those riders fumble around with, and waste on zee crowd? Or worse, spray upon us Immaculately Groomed Podium Girls! Zut, one time my perfectly hair-sprayed coiffeur was ruined, my long-lash mascara ran down moi cheeks, and zee smile was nearly washed from moi Beautiful Podium Face by some jerk being funny with the bubbly-pop.

But I will now tell you zee truth about zee leftover magnums of dat fine, expensive champagne. My dearies, they are used for Podium Girl Drinking Games. C'est vrai!

Here are some of zee PGDG Rules:

* When you must kiss, kiss zee rider with zee bad breath, take one drink.
* When your beautiful, baby-soft cheek gets zee whisker burn, take one drink.
* If zee rider kiss, kisses the other Podium Girl and not you, take two drinks.
* If zee rider pats your bottom and leaves a dirty handprint, take two drinks.
* When the inept rider screws up zee kiss, kiss and mashes your Beautiful Podium Nose, take three drinks.
* If zee rider steps on your Exquisite Podium Toes, and still you must smile, take three drinks,
* If zee rider whispers a proposition, drink the remaining champagne and run to his room.
* If zee fat, old Le Tour Official whispers a proposition, drink the remaining champagne and run away to Secretarial School in zee Paree.

A Votre Sante,
PGGB

Digging deep
What do you think of it so far then?

Well, my dearies, a most wondrous, sneaky idea was sent to me in a dream last night. My fairy Pod mother told me, that if television crews could find fame and fortune by digging through garbage, then PGGB should do the same. Have I told you that what we poor Podium Girls get does not pay the rent? Sad, but true. So, compromising my Podium integrity, I stooped to a new low.

For this midnight foray, I chose a red and white ensemble, my dearies, and put on my best red polka dot sash to conceal any splatters. Very sneakily, I crept to a garbage can behind a hotel where the teams were staying. With a furtive glance over my polka-dot shoulder, I opened zee garbage can lid.

EEECH! PeeeYuuu! Gross! It was disgusting. My delicate little Podium Nose could not take this mal odeur. Mon Dieu, maybe television crews are accustomed to such stench, but Pas Moi!

I sped away on my little red pumps and hid behind a team van. The only other human who was out at this time of night was a drunken mechanic, who tripped over the can and spilled the garbage. He did not seem to notice the odeur.

It was then that I discovered the Real Secret of the Peloton. Junk food wrappers blew all over the parking lot. Snickers, Mars, Twixt, Schoks, Le Petite Ecolier, Haribo, Cosmics, M&Ms, and McDonalds were just a few. Junk Food, c’est tout!

While the Directeurs Sportifs sleep, dreaming of Podium Girls in yellow, those disobedient little climbers and sprinters eat junk food. They speed out on their bicycles to McDrive and 8 a Huit and stuff their faces with forbidden goodies. Alas, the naughtiest thing those boys do is snarf fast food and chocolate. My hopes for the fame and fortune of a sensational expose went down the drain just like the French Officials’ doping case.

Junk food... Ah, c’est la vie Podium.

Until later,
PGGB

I'm expecting great things on this front from the Giro this year. And we're already off to a great start - have a look at some of the pics in this gallery.

what a great idea. We'll get a girl to wear the model the team jersey then the riders can find a place on the front to sign it

It is worth checking out the girls who sometimes hold umbrellas on the start line like in the Milan stage of the Giro 09.



For the Tour09 podium girls, you need look no further than this:
