Oh is this what they were showing interviews about...
…when I got back to my hotel one night last weekend?
It was part of a daily late night Tour show, yes
Each night there are 2 new guests, often from the cycling world. Marianne Vos & Michael Boogerd were guests on July 13th: http://nos.nl/video/171863-avondetappe-13-juli.html
Ceci n'est pas une signature.
Yep, that'd be the night I saw them...
…but my Dutch is um, well, hopeless.
not sure who Marten is
but damn, Mariane can climb. and it looks like dancing to me.
"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."
Maarten Ducrot
was there mainly because he’s the regular cycling commentator on Dutch TV, in the expert role as former pro. He’s 52.

I'm always amazed by people who can climb like this...
…and talk without being out of breathe. Perhaps because I climb like a brick…
Oh, and I didn’t understand a lick of that, but it was fun to watch. Thanks.
now sock-less and carefree.
Cool stuff
The Dutch Hegemony is totally reality in women’s cycling!
Robert Gesink on the difference between football and cycling: "For us it's a lot harder to get yellow"
tell that to Emma Pooley
all 3 foot nine of her
Warning... not everything I say should be taken entirely seriously
If she'd been taking the One Ring to Mordor...
Those films would have been a lot bloody shorter!
Bunch of slack-jawed faggots around here. This stuff will make you a god damned sexual Tyrannosaurus, just like me - Jens Voigt, Predator (1987)
Ha ha...
is anyone even surprised? Marianne Vos can climb at 5+ w/kg for an hour.
In his day I’m sure Maarten could climb quite well, but at over 50, it is just no comparison.
