Around SBN: The Ten Worst Swings Of The 2011 Season

Question from the wife

Is Astana going for a 1, 2, 3 on the podium in Paris? Has any team ever done anything even close?

No, and yes

I don’t think that they’re going for it, since winning is difficult enough. That doesn’t mean they won’t do it, but we haven’t seen too much of Levi at the moment (compared to AC and LA) so we can’t say how he actually is doing.

I can’t remember any team hogging the whole podium. But La Vie Claire got 1st, 2nd and 4th (and 7th) in the Tour 1986. They also got 1st and 2nd 1985, as did Telekom in 1996 (and Zabel won the green jersey).

Staring at the swim team gets you killed by a gang of dancing ninja men who know how to twirl.

Can it be Feb 25 already?
A frozen 'cross ride from this last weekend. As you may be aware we have had siberian conditions here in the UK with a low of -14 degrees centigrade here on saturday morning. It was a beautiful sunny morning so i layered up and set off for a snowy 'cross ride along a roman road. I checked the thermometer when i got back to find it had been -10 throughout the ride! I had a lot of fun though and the views were spectacular.
