I'm jealous of you, isso. My city is drowned in water due to massive rain. |

I love rain. believe me when I say I'd trade if I could.
it's always like that. people like what's unusual. where I live there's not a cloud in the sky 5 days out of the week, so I like rain.
33ÂșCelsius outside right now...
anyway, 5 and a half minutes until Degano departs...

Freire's ride is laisy. Green added on Discovery shirt? Next year sponsor hint? |

nope. green is because of environmental issues. they're trying to "raise awareness to global warming".
Freire has pains from a cist, and so probably won't be very good at the tour this year.

Forgot that possibility...that's new fashion in US. Don't want remember them for that they refused to sign Kyoto agreement wich main issue was "raise awareness to global warming". |

Well, it wasn't Discovery Channel who said no to the Kyoto - it was the US government. |

Zabriskie and Karpets are off....and predictably eurosport goes to commercial
something tells me this is wrong on cyclingnews' start times list:
Ignacio Gutierrez Cataluna (Spa) Team LPR: 16:44

Karpets best time. trust me, Zabriskie isn't that good in the TTs. he has however finally found a seat position that allows him to use his huge raw power on the climbs too.
all it took was a 7 month study by 4 experts he hired
