    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    It's a bit of a horrorshow - could make for interesting TTing in a cross wind.

    Dunno why but I'm imagining Geraint Thomas fighting with one of those in an early season flatlands TT.

    ^ Not a major change. I'd hoped for more blue and white less brown... I'm assuming they are sticking with brown shorts which will keep the trendy boys happy...

    The people who designed those should do time. It's the only way to stop it.
    It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.

    Maybe, but at least there's less chance of them becoming reality. And we need protecting from people who foment such heinous attacks on good taste.

    The new Pinarello will likely be controversial. French TV might need to get their heat guns out again.

    I shouldn't post any more images because this was 2012! (I didn't start it...)
