The Russian's cycling 'style' had me laughing at points. His attacks are vicious0 -
It's an absolute pile of cliched shite with the good old 'Merican hero overcoming those nasty, cheating, drugged up Ruskies. The Russian is climbing the Rockies with the leaders despite being built like Forsterman. 'Shake and break' my ar$e.0

That's because he is riding a Sannino frame... you should have seen me... I was finishing my (horribly French) coffee at the top of the Aubisque when the 15 strong companions made their way into the cafe'left the forum March 20230 -

TBF that is more to do with you. If I rode the Sannino I would still be last, but at least I would look good.Yellow is the new Black.0 -
Clichéd cheesy brilliance!
One of the great sporting films.
The treadmill scene is one of my favourite's.
Great soundtrack too.....
Lets go! American Flyers...You aim hi hi hi highy high, the race against time. I know... your heart is on fiiire. Going the distance...leaving the others behind...

I have to agree with that...Scott Speedster S20 Roadie for Speed
Specialized Hardrock MTB for Lumps
Specialized Langster SS for Ease
Cinelli Mash Bolt Fixed for Pain
