Hotitude - World's Style

The Worlds are going on this week. The U23 Chrono was yesterday and the Women's Chrono was ridden this morning. I think PopUp is going to be adding some screen shots for the men to enjoy and I hope he does as a hotitude thread for all is what we aim for here at the lovely Cafe!
With no Benna, Fabian, or George... the list goes on, I think we need to keep this open to shots of those we wish were there as well as those who are. Have fun posting! Pics in the thread always welcome but make sure to try and credit the source when you can. Enjoy!!!

And of course to get things going...
Here’s some good luck headed Michael’s way for a good ride!

Oh he's such a cutie is Michael Barry. So nice.
Have you read his Postal Bus book? (I’m having a bizarre mental block and can’t remember the exact title. Long day…)
by Albertina on Sep 24, 2008 3:37 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Own it and I have read it through at least twice,
possibly 4 or even 5 times if I piece together all the times I picked it up and read a chunk here and there.
I’m fan of his writing as much as his riding.

Yes, he's a lovely guy and writes so intelligently.
So pleased for him over this win :-)

Oh. Poor guy looks flustered. What the heck.
Where’s the zip up the back podium jersey?

He does not look at happy as I would
think a world champion would be. Are all the World’s jersey’s pull overs?

It does look a little like the things one got at school sports day.
Actually, I should rephrase that: It looks like the things that other people got at school sports day. Running was so not my thing!

Well.... maybe not...
but if Jens wasn’t already assuming there was one in the works….
I could not possibly let him down and not start one up.
I am certainly happy to see some nice pics to help us through our week. :-)

Plenty of hotties left.
There are so many more hotties at the worlds, even with no Benna, pippo etc.. to name just a few:
Philippe Gilbert (my tip to win, and we he smiles, you just melt and would do anything)
Tom Boonen (can never go past a great shot of Boonen, and he’s a bad boy))
Marcus Burghardt (pheww)
Christophe Le Mevel (tight ass)
Alessandro Ballan (omg)
Schleck Brothers (mmmm)
and then theres my favorite Aussies, Adam Hansen and Robbie..
OK need to stop, hers just a few, have to go to work, so photos to follow soon.

Welcome aboard girl!
And please, by all means, feel very free to post as many pics of Adam Hansen as you’d like. I may need to help with that too.

BTW I’m can’t seem to add any of my own photo’s, it keeps asking gor URL address, am i doing something wrong..

where do you have your photos parked?
If it’s just on your hard drive, you need to post them somewhere on the internet first, then get the url of their location by right-clicking and choosing “Copy Image Location.”
If you don’t have a web site of your own, there are plenty of free hosting sites out there.

Great pics and such fun memories!
I hope you still plan on writing about being a marshall. I won’t harp much though as I still have 2 stages to go back and write up of my own. I think we’d all love to hear about it with some fun details, even if we have to wait a bit.
The 2nd pic of Rollin has my friend and her husband in it. I still find it funny how many times we crossed paths at this thing. The note on the fan mascot was great and it still cracks me up in asking for the clydesdale of the group! ha!

I was planning on working on it last weekend but
then got sick and so have just barely dragging myself to work and home. I will do it this weekend as well as sorting out all my photos and labeling them. Gives me an excuse to try out the Aperture program I picked up last week before I got sick

He has that cute shyness about him like Michael does.
He was fun at the finish.
They had him up on the stage for awhile talking about himself and the other riders.
It was good fun.
OH… and you have Lyne in your shot! How cool!

Thats funny, I recently lost my whole desktop computer... i was in shock...
Luckily, i just purchased new laptop, and was smart enough to burn a few cd’s of photos… But also paid a bit of money and my documents were recoveredso lucky, but shit thank god), and are now safely backup my stuff every couple of weeks on an external hardrive….
I would be devastated if i lost my photos ( I’ve paid too much money to do the things i have done again, plus i would never get some of them back), there are so many memories, i also have so many videos as well with just as much fun on them..

If Lyne wants to set up a Hotitude - Cross Style
thread, I am all for it. I thought Drew was supposed to put up some pics from his race last weekend. We totally could’ve jumped and hijacked that but I have yet to see it unless I’ve missed it being away most of the week. I’m headed to a local Cross race on Sunday so if nothing is up by then, I’ll start one. (Horrible job but someone needs to stay on top of it. LOL!)
I think come November the Rear of the Year thread is a requirement. It will give us something to do between training camps and holidays. :-)

Some people have emails on their profiles.
A couple of people (there may be more but I don’t know) are on Facebook too. I’ll write you a message over there…

This may be a stupid question
but as a guy I’m not qualified to make the call.
Why isn’t Christian Vande Velde getting any love? I wouldn’t mind looking like him.

I can work on that. Been out of things for a few days
slowly crawling back and all the threads I’ve started reading today are not helping my dizziness. I get the room to stop spinning and this place has it started all over again…. oucha.

Am I too old?
Some of the pics in this thread are great (especially those of Pippo just above) but most of the guys in this thread are way too young for me. Sure, Andy Schelck is verrry cute, but I could never call him hot! it would feel wrong somehow, if you know what I mean.
Any pics of hot guys aroud my age? I’m the same age as Di Luca (my kind of hottie – and YES of course I know he is officially shady so I shouldn’t like him but I can’t help it. Like the way he rides – and looks.)
by amarone on Oct 4, 2008 3:29 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Valverde is fairly shady too but I'm sooo in love with him!
Sometimes a girl can’t help it ;-) How old is Quinziato? Older than some of the others I think. Di Luca though, yes, I can see the attraction there…

totally agree with you
about Valverde. He is one of my favovorites too. Quinziato was born in 1979 so I think I’m allowed to like him too, he’s not much younger than me.

this reply-thing is confusing...
I was replying to Albertina’s post just below my original post, but my comment ended up way down here.
Oh well, maybe one day I get the hang of posting here…

This where those weird Dutch cycling anorak sites come in handy. On this one, you can eliminate cyclists who are too young for you. Not that I’d ever tried doing that before you posed your question. Though I think doing too many searches using just the date parameter could probably bork that site. Guess the coder just never considered the ends to which the query might actually be put. Though it’d take quite a leap of logic to think of designing a cycling db being used like a dating site … I wonder why no one’s nailed that angle yet …

Hmm, interesting.
I applied my parameters but on a quick glance through not many took my fancy. My Mum always said I was too picky.
by Albertina on Oct 4, 2008 5:22 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
thanks for the link fmk, but
I found way too many cyclists suitable for my age. How am I supposed to know if they are available? Or hot? Didn’t see any pictures there…
by amarone on Oct 4, 2008 5:27 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
There are little pictures on the top right of the individual riders' pages.
But yes, there should be a regularly updated database of SINGLE cyclists ;-)
by Albertina on Oct 4, 2008 5:31 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
database of SINGLE cyclists?
excellent idea!
And about that link fmk posted – my problem was that my search found so many cyclicts I didn’t really have time to check their individual pages… so didn’t see the pictures.
Also, just noticed I wrote Andy Schelck, obviously meant Schleck. Note to self – don’t drink wine while posting here.

I think all of my favourites are taken...!
Benna, Boonen, Valverde, Pippo….
by Albertina on Oct 4, 2008 6:08 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I think they are ALL taken....
was kidding a bit about the single db. I don’t really think I’m going to end up with a hot professional cyclist ;)
…would be nice of course, but sometimes a girl has to be realistic
by amarone on Oct 4, 2008 6:36 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, that's why the age difference doesn't bother me
Even if they were up for a little of the ol’ Mrs. Robinson, I’m happily married and monogamous, so it wouldn’t be happening in any case. Which I figure removes any of the guilt from looking.
by majope on Oct 4, 2008 7:11 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I really don't mean to be critical,
but doesn’t the age difference bother you at all while you’re looking?
I’m actually glad if you can think that the young riders are hot, but I just feel weird if I start to drool over someone really young.
I guess about five years younger than me are ok, anyone younger than that I start to feel I could be their mother (obviously not really their mother, but…)
by amarone on Oct 4, 2008 7:37 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Mehh, who cares about age...
Hey my saying is “your only as young as the many your feeling”, and if that happens to be a HOT professional cyclist, then i’m there..
and never say you can’t be with one, things do happen… someone has to be with them…

I'm really sorry, I never meant to say that other people had to feel the way I do...
I’m glad you can enjoy the hotitude of the young riders. I was really only asking for pictures of some of the more mature guys.
Surely some of you have hot pictures of riders who have turned thirty?

And I don’t think age really is an issue for him. So long as you look like his Mom, you’re in with a chance.

Exactly, such nerve that woman had :D
BTW, I’d appreciate if you had said ‘one’ instead of ‘you’ as I’m a guy, and though I’ve always ended up cheering for Armstrong(even in the Basso years) I’m just not comfortable with taking the next step.
Oh my, never thought I’d feel compelled to picture google Armstrong’s mother. Nor would I’ve guessed she was a blonde.

Apparently his ex left with the washing machine. Not the washing machine man. The actual washing machine.

- Wow! I’ll take in. And sign me up for your fabulous five year warranty when you’re at it.
I hate to think what he used to bring back when his mother would send him round the shops for a litre of milk and a loaf of bread.
