what the hell is a personal sponser ???? and why the hell would you ?

Wooliferkins

As opposed to a corporate sponsor. If you chose to finance a rider you'd be a their personal sponsor. Her company is the corporate sponsor of the new team

This passage made me raise the eyebrows:

“We are running under the slogan, “everybody deserves a second chance,” and you will see that in the signings when we make the team,”

So a load of ex-dopers then?

Hembo is a watch designer and today launched a Michael Rasmussen-branded range of wristwatches.

:roll: Hopefully they come with an easy to use time zone checker so you can make absolutely sure you know what continent you're on at any given time.

This is not even a step up from when he made a comeback with Miche. Why are we still talking about this guy?

I had never heard of Cristina watches.
I've just googled them- lovely, and although expensive, not as bad as 'diamond encrusted' would suggest.

So, I guess that it's a smart business move by her.

Chicken's photo prominent on the opening web-page though.

I may, just may, be swithering about my loathing for this creature. Basso et al- I can see why he has a sense of 'Why me?'.

Someone slap some sense into me.

This has me interested as I have unusually skinny wrists, and it's hard to find watches with suitable straps or bracelets.

Also, I'm assuming that the chicken and Ms Hembo are shagging. Am I right?

“Cycling teams should be like hot women. Dirty, but not too dirty.”

whats wrong with being too dirty? (women not cycling)

spezial

Is it April 1st or something?

The Christina/Festina name for a start.

And Hembo? That sounds like some untested medical product that certain riders might like in their IV bag.

You couldn't make it up.

I think I read somewhere that's she's married, and presumably he still is as well.

She's young, successful, and attractive. You'd have to be utterly desperate to want to mate with the Chicken, I mean- what is there to hold on to? Just imagine those bones grinding against you.

Yeuch, yeuch, and yeuch.

cal_stewart

sorry tusher but shes not that attractive. fair point about wanting to bangthe chicken.

I wouldn't kick her out on a Sunday morning.

Anyway I'm glad to see the chicken back in the peleton.

Done his time.
