Shots of pros without glasses

But whoever he is hasn't openly said that he's gay.
(Don't have to name him, Iain, just give us a teeny clue. His nationality for a start.)


What is it, something like 3% of the population are homosexual? And 0.000001% of sportmen?

Aye, right.

You can still do this at the majority of races on the calendar.

The old days weren't better btw, that's just your rose tinted Oakleys making it seem that way.

My tuppenceworth - maybe someone could post a pic of Round the world cyclist Mark Beaumont & that bearded chap who rides for Rabobank...hard to spot the difference when they have helmet and glasses on.

Boonen is truly shaggable, isn't he? Not in Cav's league, of course, but he grows more gorgeous with age.

Shame I've left school.

I'm truly shocked by that - I always had you down as a wholesome person who spends her time doing crochet!

I took that shot of Cancellara at last year's Amstel Gold race - it's the bomb, and he's so dreamy......

Boonen always looks like he's trying to figure out some particularly awkward VAT calculation.

Tusher

I have to admit Canc is looking particularly spunky in that photo...

Cancellara looks like Inspector Gadget. (Go go gadget bike)

And Boonen is going bald (nothing wrong with that)

He's in good company.

I was a bit confused by Szmyd in Trentino as he usually rides with nose-band and glasses but didn't wear the glasses when he was on screen in the race. I had to look twice.

That's your shot Potts? The actual one?! Nice, great shot.

Just checked and that actual shot was taken by a guy called Huw Jones - a colleague of mine. Originally used in this article: http://www.cyclingnewsasia.com/en/featu ... -in-photos

If you got it somewhere else they nicked it!
