    Always wondered this about you Frenchie: Why a hard-drive full of photo's? Personal enjoyment? Work? other?

    Anyway, whilst on the subject, got any pictures of Colombia Coldeportes riders? I can look at that jersey all day long...

    Frenchie, I notice you ask such questions on occasion which makes me think that you are unaware of the full extent of the Google Image search facility. Just open Google images in one window and your image in another and drag your image into the search box.

    I also think it's funny that Frenchie (and i'm sure many others) couldn't ID the first rider, and yet he has a monument on his palmares. Sums him up I guess (Zaugg that is, not Frenchie).

    Thanks Rich. I had no idea you could do this. Will give it a go later. I guess the only issue I may have is when the link address is changed.

    Yeah fair point although I dont think it really matters though. His win in any case was not exactly won in a monumental way. He also doesn't figure too much in all other races and isn't stand out noticeable.

    Haha, its all for personal enjoyment at the moment.

    I have hardly any of C-C as they don't win or figure much. These are what I know of, from TofC '12 stage 6

    That's what I meant Frenchie, apart from that one win he's done naff all.

    Cheers for the Pics Frenchie!

    Also, Coldeportes got a decent result yesterday. Johan Chaves beat Di Luca and Pozzovivo to win the GP Città di Camaiore http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/chaves-showing-strength-of-colombia-coldeportes-in-italy

    Surely there is some major copyright related issue's to FF stealing pictures from the Internet and doing everything from keeping them for personal use / editing them / posting them online.

    Unless of course FF has permission to do all this.

    In the strictest sense then he is infringing copyright, but so long as he doesn't use the images for personal gain then it's unlikely that the copyright owners will be bothered.

    Exactly. Its not like I am changing them and passing them off as my own or selling them. I mostly say who took the photo if I know who and the photos I have are simply there for me to peruse at my leisure and I havent even printed any off or linked anywhere else apart from this site. A couple of photographers have sites and I can buy from there at full res if I like one.

    It is simply what a huge amount of people do (save photos they like). I just happen to have a lot and more importantly share them with others here for their enjoyment also.

    Definitely Tiralongo.
    I think the top one is Monfort, but not definite.

    I'll bite on that one.

    BBB glasses - they only sponsor Vacansoleil this year and its not a Bianchi bike. My guess is that its 2011 when they sponsored QuickStep. Bike looks a bit like a Merckx paint-job so that'd match too.

    As the only person in last years QS team that would bother his ass with a TT bike, I'm guessing Chavanel.

    He does. Perusal of the 10 Terabyte HDD with FF one night over a cup of Big Maggie's gave Spielberg the idea for Schindler's List.

    Allegedly.

    Probably can't identify riders 'cos you're tweeting and not actually watching the race. :roll: Is your name David Harmon?

    I think the HTC-Highroad rider is Renshaw.

    the internet thinks so too: http://www.demorgen.be/dm/nl/1001/Wielr ... rken.dhtml

    Have to admit, I orginally thought Turfle was right to suggest Monfort though.

    I just cannot see Renshaw in there no matter how hard I try. I can see about 4 different riders (Haussler mainly), none of whom ever rode for HTC/Columbia.
