    It was the Tour wasn't it? See the date in the quote. The Damien Hirst bike is the most expensive ever sold I think (at least at the time)

    Was just going to say that @afx237vi 's disappearance is much more of a shame than Armstrong's bike choice.

    The inventor of PTP no less. The winner should be awarded the Andy Dunn Trophy (his real name)

    I thought that it was confirmed that he was no longer with us. But it might have been inferred...

    I quite like the idea of a afx/Andy Dunn trophy!

  • In the ITV corner we have David Millar, calling team tactics and explaining the blow-by-blow action as it happens.
    In the Eurosport corner we have Carlton Kirby, wheeling out his well worn cliches and tipping half the peloton as potential stage winners.
