Robbie McEwen v Stuart O’Grady
Several people have asked what I make of Robbie McKewen using his head and shoulders to try and muscle Stuart O’Grady out of his way yesterday. Stuart O’Grady = Good; Robbie McEwen = not so much. I’m pleased there are consequences for that kind of behaviour.
That is all I have to say on the matter.

That’s because NYC had no chance, whereas Paris was the strong favourite.
And, no, Niki, I will not “forget cycling”! The very idea.

Well, you know, there’s been a rivalry between France and England for somewhat longer than between Australia and England. There’s the wee matter of the hundred years war and etcetera etcetera etcetera . .
