This is, in every respect, the work of a genius.
The story unfolded so perfectly and each frame was staged so well. Briljance. Chapeau.

Wow
it’s completely and utterly amazing!
Ô col Bayard, Ô Tourmalet, à côté du Galibier, vous êtes de la pale et vulgaire bibine !
I honestly don't know what to say
For the last 12 years, i’ve toiled in the creative industry, and I haven’t done anything close to this. Simply amazing.
Outstanding
What a cool place this is. So much talent.
I agree with the others, this is the best of the series so far.

We are in the presence of greatness.

It's surprising that we still have our majope.
She hasn’t been lured away by one of the high budget websites for a million dollar salary.
"Awesome! is more about what gets fans excited than what’s harder to do." - Chris...
I'm in awe
Staring at the swim team gets you killed by a gang of dancing ninja men who know how to twirl.
So, so true - it's always the shoes
Just awesome work :)
"To therefore answer your basic question what color socks should I wear, I issue the bold statement wear white shoes." - King of Style
Fabulous! Hahahaha. What a Friday morning treat!
This one is actually rather scary…my heart was beating fast for poor Barbie. I’m so relieved that no harm came to him.
I feel the natural place for Team Barbie Barbie is 2nd, anyway.
At least until after de Ronde.

-Bobby Jones upon seeing a young Jack Niklaus play…
The same applies here- A work of unadulterated genius…VERY well done!
Thank you, everyone! I'm humbled.
Playing with dolls is fun.

This one really does reach a whole new level.

great job
"Ants don’t worry, they operate like a fantastic team, they accept obstacles and deal with them in a positive manner, they don’t complain and remain positive. An ant doesn’t work on emotion, is proactive and always chooses the ant role."
I love these majope!
I hope these continue to run a long lived series as they make my day. I needed some laughs and so this come up and had to come look. Well done girl! Well done!
I'm ready for this road season to wrap up. Bring on Cross!
I so hope so!
I have stuff on Saturday but I’m shooting to make at least one day of live racing. You have no idea how much I miss live threads – being live, and not reading them later. :-) Hope you’re good and the weather is warming up by you! Spring Fever has hit here and in a bad way! :-)

The Ghost of Cycling's present?
Wicked
You must share with IamTedKing, the KOS would appreciate that it comes down to shoes.
"It's a lovely thing, feeling that momentum. If you're lucky, it's also about grace." Tim Winton
Sheesh, you'll have me reading your other books soon
speaking of which, has Barbie Barbie been moonlighting as a model for one of those covers?
Ha! No, I got to meet a couple of the models for one my covers at a book signing in LA a few years back.
Very nice guys.
As for the books, they aren’t THAT bad. Distinct lack of cycling, though. So far.
