    She can't be that fit as it says she's not an active athlete.

    Andy Schleck will definately be a GT winner next year then.

    It's gotta be difficult to put in a good TT when you're nursing a semi.
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Whats worse is the man in the blue UCI blazer saying the front of your shorts now constitues a "non-structural aerodynamic fairing" and takes out his tape to see if you are breaching the 3:1 rule.

    Airbrushed, Pokerface dere, clearly airbrushed. Especially the first one.

    It's part of what I do for a living (retouching) so am aware that she isn't 'perfect'. But I stll wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers. 8)

    Gotta agree... she's no oil painting unlike your goodself, Lady Tush... :oops:

    Tusher should be relieved Ms Basso can't go near Cavendish now. But I'd keep my eye on young Sophie van Vliet.

    Go near her, you test positive.

    Boonen wouldn't tell me if it was worth it though :wink:

    She's got additives, for sure. Although isn't she young enough to be in a crate?

    As for La Basso, who to retouched her?

    They roll differently in Holland (and I'm not talking €50 notes here)

    Where's Rick anyway?

    What a fine distraction.

    Bet there was a queue to investigate her.
