That ended closer than I thought it was going to. Great job hanging

I'm happy to see David Millar in good form also. He's

Three names, each with three syllables and you didn't misspell any of
the three. That is NOT rbr protocol. Sure, you cut and pasted from the
results page of cyclingnews.com, but you could have edited in an
error.

I suggest spelling Popovych with an i - Popivych.

Can I reserve the nickname "Popobitch", in case he becomes a whiner or
something ?

What about the op Robert Chung?
Popo 'has got' balls?
Is that rbr protocol?
Either "Popo has balls", or "Popo got balls" but not both.

Oh well, at least he didn't say Lance has got balls.

He's well behind Voeckler. Ouch.

Now about tomorrow, I know what a can is, but what the hell is a
brignole?

nolle -> unwilling
brig -> fight

I guess it means unwilling to fight. Is that good for a bike racer?

Thanks,
Mike Zanoli

Need a ruling -' pave' for Europosters only?

I think you ought to be able to use pave as a verb regardless of where
you're from. E.g.,

"If that douchebag ever got balls, he would want someone to pave them."

But then I'm always thinking anthropomorphically.

I'm thinking of doing a race in Maryland later this year but have some
questions about the parcours -- can I email you direct?

In a group break from km 9, then solos the last 33 (out of 178) - that
is a good ride. I hope he starts to show more of the potential he's shown
over the years. This sure indicates he's got good form now (as well as
testicular fortitude).
