windy here in melbs today. blow the milk outta ya cup of tea. made getn home on the pushy a tad difficult. bbq with friends watching the cup
Some sort of cup thing; Robbie McEwen chimed in in some pointed way. Extra points for a memorable bit of Australian... Also, apparently Danilo DiLuca has posed nude (per @cyclocosm) and Michael Boogerd is a professional racing cyclist again. Not sure how I feel about either.

Personally, I’d stick with consistency and stay with both left and right navs as you drill down through the pages, and not go from two to one.
pounding along in three ratios like a sonata
like a Ritter with pommelled scrotum atra cura on the step
Botticelli from the fork down pestling the transmission
tires bleeding voiding zeep the highway
for those that need to see such horrors
it’s the last link (at the moment) in Frinking’s photo thread.
Short answer?
no. OK, sometimes.

That Di Luca shot was from a series
with Cunego, Simoni and Petacchi, wasn’t it? Can’t seem to find it.
Boogerd will be team manager for a new development team, not riding as far as I can tell. I am not sure that is a good idea for the man who said he doesn’t feel cheated by VDB et al. because they were on a level playing field.

Moral of the tale, if you can't find a picture, ask majope.
I’ve seen them before. Some of them I don’t really wish to see again!

I guess we can't
because they are commercial photos. However, I think we can rely on Sui, majope or others to bookmark them!
Will he be back on Team Red Shorts in 2011 though? That is the question.

Has he also been sacked from your ‘other team’ or does drug use not matter in that line of work…?

I like this tweet from @RobbieMcEwen
picked 4 winners today – in Melb cup not outta my nose. Shocking was always gonna shock a few. What a great day at Nobby’s Surf club!
It shocked me too ... because I picked the winner!
So my once a year bet paid off :)

About the site redo- The PdC tage line "Harden the Heck Up"
is oddly located below the ad at the top of the page. It looks like someone forgot to delete the text.
I was just thinking that.

I’ll mess with a new id at some point, was kinda hoping instead that any problems would magically get fixed and the whole customer service thing would kick in and I’d get a notification.
My main reason for posting here was to give you the heads up that there might be a problem keeping folks out. This is my favorite time waster so I’d like to be able to waste time on cycling instead of on mucking around with IT issues trying to get to the site.

I just logged in to the front page using IE 8, for the very first time, and it worked for me. Maybe you’re behind a proxy or a firewall that is messing things up? Try to clean out all your cookies and internet temp files and caches and crap, reboot, and try again. And if this is all stuff you already know about, just ignore me.
I can't get front page anymore either.

Take a file to the corners fo the PdC logo, and

on review
are you sure about this? I think it might be a trick of the color fade.
Alternate idea: should we ask for a hairline around the logo?
"Harder! Better! Faster! Stronger!" Philippe Gilbert
by Chris Fontecchio on Nov 3, 2009 3:47 PM EST up reply actions
if not
then center, instead of right-align, the column below it. Right now it looks (to my Mac, Firefox self) off balance. Esp. from the homepage. It’s a little less jarring from within the story (in fact, it sort of matches up to the non-rounded top tabs. Except the top tabs are out of sync with the rounded rest of the site).
I’m sure there’s a professional way to describe all that. So obviously, it’s beyond me.
Ack, no
Leave the column right-aligned, it would look crappy with a white space between the column and the main field.
Agree with Mark: I think the logo should probably line up on the left side with the column below it. It’s a little odd, because the column boxes are slightly rounded while the logo is square. Hmm, I suppose they could put a rounded hairline box around the logo that matches the column, but really, I think the main thing is to line that left side up with the column. I think it does look a hair off-balance when all of the other page elements on both the right and left columns have aligned.
But I defer to the judgement of more adept graphics sorts than I am. LOL, perhaps we should page Vee on over for this chat.
I see it now
And that’s a dilly of a pickle. I guess they could crop the logo, or shrink it slightly and float it in the box so it’s not setting the column width. Hm…
BTW, I got an email that they’re tinkering with formats all day. Some things have already changed from this morning.
"Harder! Better! Faster! Stronger!" Philippe Gilbert
by Chris Fontecchio on Nov 3, 2009 6:25 PM EST up reply actions
They way it's coded now
shrinking the logo wouldn’t move the logo, it still would float all the way left. They need to add padding-left: 7px, and make the logo 7px narrower.
OK I did a little exploring in the css for the home page.
There’s this nifty little add on to Firefox called Firebug, that enables you too look and edit css on the fly, for testing. The formatting for logo placement is in the css. They’d have to go in and adjust the padding and logo size to get it to line up correctly.
"Some sort of cup thing"
Sheesh… that would be the Melbourne Cup. A big deal. The Victorians even get a public holiday because of it (bastards!). Back in 2007, one Cadel Evans carried the cup onto the field and down the straight. On his bike, in *Lotto kit…
Ohh and here in Qld, I was given day of work too.... YaY

OK, so Victorians AND Queenslanders are bastards then
Or is it just Victorians and the Dept. of Defence?
If you're from NSW
you know it’s Victorians and Queenslanders.
Victorians because they’re snobs with chips on their shoulders (and they get Cup Day off); Queenslanders because of Arthur Beetson, Wally Lewis, Alfie Langer, Dale Bloody Shearer, etc, etc right up to Lockyer and Thurston and Steve Price and all of them, damnit.
Bitter? Not a bit.
And what about that talentless little Thurston... and i could strangle Matty Bowen ;)

And then they’d get bizarre questions, this bloke they’d never heard of telling them about the time when he won a gold medal in the same sport and Fatso the Fat-Arsed Wombat.

NZ eventually snagged a gold in the single sculls
But I think you might be right, the bronze was first.
Dennis Mitchell, I think it might have been (him or Ato Bolden), blamed Roy & HG for his poorer-than-hoped-for performances, since they were all staying up late to watch. Then followed, in Roy’s irreverent way, one of the better (ie. technically, about sprinting technique) interviews I’ve seen on television. And funny to boot.

I really liked the column on the right . . . .
I could stop in, scan down the right side and see if there was any article I was interested in reading.
Now, I need to go to multiple pages, and this takes more time so I know I am less likely to find all that random coolness that the PDC is full of.
For some reason the Fanshots still has this for Fanposts, but the rest just have empty space where this column should be.
Oh, and the upload is now slow as a slug in winter Chris, and I know you are aware what that speed is.
I forgot to mention the colors are getting more bland.
What is up with that?
Wait...
You don’t have the column on the right? What browser are you on? Because that is certainly a CSS error that should be fixed. I’m betting you’re on Explorer? Right column shows in Firefox same as it ever was, but there are some weird quirks to Explorer and CSS.
If it doesn't work in Explorer . . .
. . . it wasn’t built correctly.
All opinions aside, when a company owns more then 50% the market, you’d better make your stuff compatible twith it.
Top Browser Share Trend
In reality, many companies are like the one I work in and they use Explorer for whatever logic the IT guy has.
This is not my choice, I just want to read up on some cool bike stuff.
That’s just the way it is.
Shrug
Actually, there are certain things that the older versions of Explorer don’t read correctly from the CSS. It requires a series of hacks and workarounds to make it work. The problem is the way the older versions of Explorer work, not the way the CSS was written.
Um, anyway, I was just asking if you were using Explorer, not looking for a rant about browser choices. If you are on Explorer, then the we need to send in a bug fix request for that browser.
Thanks and stuff.
I'm using IE and I still have the right-hand column

Completely O/T
but I was just cleaning out some old magazines that I had stacked up and realized I’d probably never get around to reading. One article that stood out from CycleSport – “Who’s Going to Win the TdF” and the options are Ullrich, Basso, Valverde, Landis, Hincapie and Vino.
Errr, I think that one is a little out of date.
Ha
Must be the 2006 version from before all the shit hit the fan. Although Hincapie is kinda the odd one out there. Did anyone ever really think he could win a grand tour? Really?
Naw . . .
. . . that was the year after Mr. strong up’ed and quit.
Bruneel and Discovery, simply because they really had noone else, tried to market that since George won the queen stage in the previous TDF he could be trained to up enough to be a good climber and TT guy in the style of Indurain.
Everyone in the media drank the Kool-Aid cause it was a nice story despite how absolutely crazy it really was.
In his defense
George did try to be the new Lance… he dropped a ton of weight, etc, but he wasn’t up to it obviously. Point being that it wasn’t pure PR vaporware. It was hype, but there was an effort.
I dunno...
… but you, Seahorse and I are all here – so we’ll soon see if it’s possible, ’eh? ;-)

the feature I crave:
At newsvine.com users have a tiny “Conversation tracker”
A user has their own little counter for new comments in articles that the user has commented in or written.
Click on it and it lists all articles with new comments and takes you there when clicked.
It’s unobtrusive but helps one keep track of the mayhem.

here's something really O/T
NBC Olympic site has lots of pics of “model Olympians” as a preview of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. One of the slideshows features pics of the US Nordic Combined team on a cycling trip to the TdF in 2009
OK a genuine bug here
I usually visit this place using Opera (Opera 9.something, waithing for 10 to get itself sorted, Win XP), but now it won’t let me log in. Some months ago Iused to have to click on the little log-in bit at the top and a form would slide down for me to fill in my name and password. A while back this changed so that I didn’t even have to click, just roll the mouse over, to get the log-in form. That was all fine. Now I just can’t get that to work. Mouseover does nothing, Click does nothing. There’s a little Error console in Opera, and looking at that I get:
JavaScript – http://www.podiumcafe.com/
Event thread: mouseover
