Italian Cyclists Take it Off
Oh what goodies the off season brings. I'm pretending like I never saw this and praying for April to come. Girls, enjoy.

I am speechless. This does not occur often.
Seriously…bahahahahahahahahahahaha! Caption competition anyone?
And just what is that on Save Ferris’ side? I do think it’s time we had an off season thread about odd tattoos of the peloton. And this one is flippin hilarious just for the expressions in the background alone!
But you know...this thread would have a lot more hits
if you’d called it “Italian cyclists take it off!”
Now rightfully named!
That edit button is so handy

Still working on the naming knack
My wit has been hiding as of late

No Benna in those photo's eh? Must have hurt himself in the rehearsel.
Look, it's a bird...no, it's a plane....oh never mind it's just fucking balloon boy
zomg, freakin' hysterical!
Excellent work from Liquigas to brighten up the offy!
Anyone know the significance of the yellow hats? Very Devo. And oh-so- funny.
Don't male strippers usually dress up in macho outfits like construction workers, policemen, or firemen?
Not that I hang out at Chippendale’s or anything, I think it’s just a stripper cliche.
I'm dreadfully reminded of Village People...

lol, yeah
Village People or Devo. I couldn’t decide. Not that I devoted much time to the hats, mind you.
Which is probably admirable, but it's also a loss...

I loved the photo they captioned

Liquigas's Hotittude status is set in stone/pictures now
How will the other teams beat these pics :))

But where are the others?
Benna? Manuel? Guarnieri? I feel sure Jacopo would have been up for this ;)
I'm shocked at how good
Pellizotti looks! :-0 Wow! I agree, where the hell was Jacopo? Would have been a huge treat to have Pippo there too. I know wrong team but a girl can dream.
Interesting...
how when the rides dance in their underwear it becomes a “test of humiliation”, but apparently it’s fine for the girls.
But to get back to the serious matter at hand, I think that Corioni deserved to take it on his dance moves alone.
(Liquigas’ off season exploits are really warming me to them. I hope this Signor Bettini keeps up his fine work.)
Yes indeed, the spa!
There are more of them on the Bettini website. Mud wrestling…there’s potential in that idea.
Ooh, are there?
I’ll have to check his actual website sometime instead of just the secondary sources.
I really think so. Except that by rights it should be lime jello, now that I think about it.
Publicity, broadens the fanbase, opportunity for sponsorship synergy.
I think everybody wins in this scenario.
Doesn't one of the Liquiboys read PdC from time to time?
Come on guys—make it a charity event and see how much money you can raise! We at PdC Hottitude Central pledge to provide the Jello—and volunteer to referee.
Indeed!
I’m fab at making jello. Now, where’s that vodka bottle?
And refereeing, like, we’d be so totally objective and stuff.
Yep team of judges like figure skating
and like a good figure skating judge, I’m not above entertaining some bribes
"Watch it wiggle, see it jiggle."
Oh yeah…
(Purely out of self-interest, can we include the non-Italian riders in the shenanigans? I’ll leave the Italian finery for others while I swoon over a fair-haired Pole.)
Not impossible...
I’ve already dabbed Benna Barbie with Jello Pudding, so Lime Jello doesn’t seem like much of a stretch.
Oh, nothing special.
Just a few shots from the afterparty of one of the big races last year. Some guys named Niels, Sven, and Lars doing vodka shots buck naked in a sauna. Then they whip each other with birch twigs (?) and roll in the snow. Utterly bizarre, but nothing you need to see.

Never seen anything like it! It’s lunchtime too…they always unblock things at lunchtime! Are you having me on majope?! I think you might be…..if you’re not, well, this sounds like ESSENTIAL viewing ;-)
How DARE you call me a lier...
when the correct spelling is “liar”? We’ll never improve Frinking’s English if the native speakers pull such stunts.
Write it a hundred times, and then try insulting me again—only properly.
Alas, no.
Ever since our last pool boy was deported, I have to spend half my day scooping the leaves out of the pool myself—and even fixing my own drinks.
Luckily, we have a new applicant, a nice young Dutch fellow with curly hair and a great smile who says he’s out of a job until mid-2011 or so. With luck, I’ll be draped over the chaise again very soon.
Are you sure it's not Frinking with a perm?
Isn’t he a pool boy in the summer?

I think listening will be sufficient.
