    That didnt last long. Not the first time he has crashed a supercar. You wouldn't see Cancellara driving something like that.

    He probably had to drive a crappy Nissan.

    No he'd just be wearing gold shoes and riding a micro scooter.

    Would Chinny not drive something like that because he won't do things for charity?

    Too many negatives in that sentence.

    ??? :?
    Cancellara donated his spinning bike to an auction, the takings from which went to a charity for people suffering from ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, what Stephen Hawking has).
    And he is an ambassador and fundraiser for the Laureus Foundation, which is a Swiss charity which tries to help with the social development of children with physical or mental difficulties, of from poor families, or who have been abused, by means of involving them in sport.

    The cynical would suggest that as Cancellara lives in Switzerland he is less in need of tax deductions.

    Wondering if you could control your bike/car when a tyre blows!

    In a recent interview he talked about testing out an Aston-Martin but decided he had no need for it, it just wasn't him. Prob. has something like an Audi estate for the family.

    Aston Martins are for old blokes who mistakenly daydream they're being stylish in a Bond style type way.

    Like middle aged blokes with top end bikes, we may mock but the bottom line is they can afford it.

    Spot on. I have one at the top of my shopping list when I win the Euro Millions. It'll go well with my dinner suit and proper tie-up bow tie that I like to leave untied at the end of an evening.

    Not a single comment for this bloody awful driving.

    If you know anything about driving then listen to the engine and his use of the throttle.
    Good job it wasn't wet.

    Best stick to the day job Niki!

    I didn't realise Boonens (Hideous) paint job was for charity, still doesn't explain just why it is so awful, unless it was "We will sponsor you to have your car painted horribly" In which case fair enough.

    Anyone seen Cav's G Wagon? Gangster mobile, not really my bag, perhaps we can have a Rider's cars thread?

    A new one? He owned one 20 odd years ago. Has a Range Rover and a custom Cavendish green MP4-12C now.

    Hard to tell Frenchie as they have looked the same for about 20 years, they just update the interior! It was parked in the middle of the Sky/OPQS busses in Westminster at the tour of Britain last year.
  • The way Boonen is riding these days, his next italian sports car will be a Fiat 500 :(

    ...a Fiat 500...

    Now an original Fiat 500, THAT is a classy car. Duck egg blue preferably.
    Correlation is not causation.

    This is quite true, the new ones are not too bad but too girly for me, the original is a classic.
