If you need us to tell you where the best part of Katy is Wolfy... you need to go on more dates...

[are you sure Hermann is a nice guy as well?... ]


I'll leave the answer to the Missouri residents now...

Off for a Sunday morning bike ride! Gorgeous day and I want to get my usual 50~60 km in before it gets too hot.

Then off to an Italian Sunday lunch... just to undo all the good I will have done on my ride...
Sounds good PP. You are a man with a good lifestyle.

Buon uomo di stile di vita.


Does that make sense?...

I haven't posted, been riding. In fact I haven't even seen stage 2 but I will watch it this evening.
I just finished my 50 and now I am going to relax.
I smell a bit sweaty!

I just flicked on Wimbledon.

Nadal has won the first two sets against Federer. 6-4... 6-4. It's 5-4 to Federer in the third (still on serve)... and now it's raining.

For some reason, I dislike Nadal a lot. But Federer has dominated men's tennis for quite a while now. I hope some fresh blood (not Nadal) is able to overthrow his domination.

Nadal beats Federer in the longest Wimbledon Final in history. 9-7 in the fifth set. Federer was going for his sixth straight Wimbledon title. Now his streak is cut off at five. The same as Bjorn Borg.

Why thank you. I had an excellent ride (I think I will take a camera next week to show off the views to you guys). And an even better lunch - ravioli (butter and sage) followed by pork roast and green beans. Ice cream. 0.5 liters of chilled white wine.

Ah, to suffer.

"Hai stile" would probably work better - your phrase roughly translates to "Good man. Lifestyle."

I watched stage 2 at the hospital...the Tour is kind of a nice soothing thing to have on TV if you're on drugs....Phil and Paul are very relaxing.

Well, Crank, I'm glad I didn't know of yours and Thumper's picks...otherwise I might have been a little bummed out there at the end...I liked seeing the yellow jersey in the mix right up to the end. More fun than watching him be "protected" the whole time.

What do you guys think of the pieces they had on Stapleton, Vaughters, American teams, etc...?

I now get what everyone means regarding Vaughters/Ralph Fiennes. That guy is just trying TOO hard to be the refined Englishman of taste...

Thumper can't believe his lucky stars. After five years of surfing cycling forums of the world... he's finely worked out a way of making money out of it...

He just had to find a dumb sucker...

Smart sucker... You mean I'm an oxy moron...

I think I need help from the Bro. He's like God with cycling picks. I'll give him a 25% cut of any winnings.

Okay... make that 30% and $50 Baskins and Robbins voucher...

Wow, you really want to play hardball!

Thunder's days are numbered if he's stacked against you, Bro, and ice cream.

I am pretty good with the picks. Dr. Dave will come through any day now. Maybe on Alpe D'Huez?
