Are you kidding, you were right. 99% OK maybe 90% of Americans couldn’t give a sh*t about any other country in the world, and thus have no respect for others culture or issues. If you don't love Jesus, speak our brand of English and have a passion for oil then you can go die, boy. Honestly, I have a great admiration for Aussies & one of my best friends is from down under (you guys kick ass). In fact if I'm around when the US implodes I will be a US immigrant to Australia (if you'll have me). Goodonya! |

I lived in Belgium in the early 80s. The beer didn't help my training, but it certainly made recovery between rides a lot more fun! |

I believe Lance was genetically designed in a laboratory, maybe by NASA? Would this be illegal by UCI regulations? |

I agree! Have you seen the totals before on how many basque riders are in the peloton? It is amazing. I read recently on Yellow Jersey Tour's website that there are over 70 professional male cyclists right now!  OMG |

Yes and they are ranked fourth in the world ahead of the USA acording to the UCI road rankings. THen you include the track results in the World Championships and Olympics. There is now way anyone can claim the US is the best. You take Lance away and Tyler (he is in purgatory right now so he doesn't count) and you don't have much. I think the next highest rated rider is Bobby Julich. THis doesn't even include the track results which are a joke. Throw in Mountain Biking which the US used to dominate and things look bad for the USA.

Re: What nation breeds the best cyclists?
I don't see Australia in the list? Any one heard of Ryan Bayley? Anna Meares? Robbie McEwen? Baden Cooke? Stuart O'Grady? Graeme Browne and the list goes on...Patterson...Opperman...
