This is a good presentation
The crowd loving Jens! as is expected. Kind of underwhelmed by the jersey, thought they might change it up a little bit at least, but not horrible either.
I thought radioshack might be more prominent on the jersey
Thought the empty space n the jersey last year was more because they lacked a title sponsor, guess Flavio likes that design.

LT has a different definition to you...or me actually. O'Grady was a captain there.
It’s not about winning races personally, it’s about telling the guys what to do and when. And yes, I know that that in many cases will simply be relaying JB’s instructions.

Hmmm . . .
I’d suppose, and maybe it’s a Texan thing, that American cycling is more given to that “give 110%” show how tough you are by pulling and pulling, then complaining when someone out-sprints you.
Or . . . maybe that’s just me.

As a relative newcomer to this sport
I can’t overstate how refreshing the often cheesy, sometimes euro-trashy, low tech goofiness of pro cycling is compared the overhyped, over slicked up assault on the senses that a lot of American team sports has become. I’ll take the acrobats and the quick step boys and their pillows and a jersey that says “Laminate flooring” over the NFL any day.
