I agree it's nice to see Andy in a suit

but Frank wins the fashion points in this interview. Still, Andy gets points for effort—maybe next year he’ll actually wear a suit to the Tour presentation.

One can hope.

Then maybe the year after that he’ll actually brush his hair. Baby steps. :)

I'm loving this Saxo-Bank-on_PdC thing

Nice to have quick notification of good interviews.

Yeah, one problem though...

… I’m not gonna join FB in order to be able to ‘log in to see this page’ ;-). Not even if the page happens to contain wall-to-wall rear-view pics of Tony. (Yeah, OK, so if that were the case I would probably give it some thought – but it is by no means certain that I would relent!)

Makes two of us. No Twitter and no Facebook... last of the Luddites :)

Coupla items

When did the Saxo kits gain the topo map lines? Tony’s with the arc en ciel rings looks awfully cool. I was aware of this design but it seems like it came and went. Not sure…

Also…

F.C.: OK, I have a big lungs and a lot of muscle, but what counts is will. Everybody has talents to be a bike rider. But talent to be really good without this will? I don’t think so. Ask riders what goals they have or why they ride their bike. I ride my bike because I want to win.

Yeah, we noticed.
