Two races on the oe night, oh what to watch

Boom is all about peaking

and I don’t think the Swiss peaks do it for him. He had his eye on Belgium and that worked out, he says next season goal is NatChamps. After that, the Vuelta opener. That said, this prologue could well be a test on the way to both of those goals.

Not a 100% sure win though.

It’s going to be interesting to see if he’s back in shape.

Distressing news

Klodie has been arrested by swiss police.

They thought he was trying to smuggle out large quantities of hidden Nazi goldtreasure but it turned out to just be his normal necklace so they released him with apologies.

Who y'all got for this race?

TRS is fielding Boom, Cavendish, Ciolek, Costa, Dekker, Gerdemann, Haussler, Meyer, Schleck the Younger, Van Avermaet, Vansummeren, and Weylandt.

69 total points going for Big Aloha. Team morale is high, at least until the blood value stuff comes down on Monday.

I feel a lot better about missing out on Antonio Colom. People that had him, well, I just hope you all feel very dirty now.

Er. Totally undeserved stereotype, I’m sure…if any of our Dutch friends are with us.

Heard a radiointerview with a spanish campingsite-manager once

He hated the dutch with a fervor because they insisted on bringing everything with them from Holland. They could go an entire holiday without spending a peseta.
