But he's wrong on the tall socks
Staring at the swim team gets you killed by a gang of dancing ninja men who know how to twirl.
What? Tall socks are the best!
I love me some good, 10-12cm cuff socks. Plus, less sunscreen or embroicant.

Tall socks make skinny legs look more impressive.
That’s one good feature… at least for me.

socks should not be seen at all
they should blend in with the pants or not stick out above the shoes. Now if only i were king …
hour + steep climb on hottest day of year on empty road
I was going slow !….. I am a huge believer in helmet wearing
Moo
I will accept
“King” of style. Just as I am “Chris…” of style. But I will not abdicate our collective fashionista throne to a lone blogger, just because his max sustainable wattage is 4x higher than mine.

Especially
not if we all are required to type perfectly seriously at all times and wear white tights.
Bah!
My new team kit is white
I am super pumped. Except for the part where I spend 3 months riding in snow slush in said white kit.

Still
think of the joy of throwing away that white kit once the snow slush is gone and buying another one that doesn’t look like it got dragged behind your car.

I'm cool with white jerseys
but not shorts. They make me feel ginourmous, which crushes my morale completely.
I was really talking about the shorts
i like white jerseys, socks, helmets and shoes
Your bike doesn't want to crash so relax and let it roll!!!
+1

I thought this would be a post about Riccardo Ricco...
Look, it's a bird...no, it's a plane....oh never mind it's just fucking balloon boy
Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Make it stop. Please make it stop.
It was just a long race--Edvald Boasson Hagen, on the Giro
It's like a train wreck
I just can’t look away

You had to pick the biggest image of him you could find, didn't you?
Look, it's a bird...no, it's a plane....oh never mind it's just fucking balloon boy
An antidote you say?

I wish I could say that's cute
but those eyes are really creepy.

Yes
Isn’t it obvious from dansel’s post?

Unlike Benna though, cats actually fall on their feet.

I hate those so much
that I’m beginning to like them.

Does that mean you are starting to like SS Lazio?

I will track you down.

that's hot.
Not everyone can pull that off. David Bowie could have rocked those, Brian Eno…and him.

They are about 2x too wide for Ricco's face.
Then again, just about everything is. He could wear junior miss sizes.

Ratsnake, Junior Miss...
I like where we’re going with Ricco. Those nicknames are almost enough to make me hope he stays around a while.
by Douglas Ansel on Dec 4, 2009 9:45 AM EST up reply actions
did you guys totally miss glam? “too wide” is kinda the idea…

I think it's about wishing we had..

he’s the best, I need that campionissimo jersey (though that one’s not him), they piss me off with their prices but I can’t escape, I’m a slave to love
