I have an antenae and I get only a few channels up here on the hill and soon I will need to get a converter or go cable or satelite. I think it is pretty cool that you know and have met some of these fairly famous bike racers that I hear about often. I also think it is pretty cool that I get to visit with you whom I consider a famous and notary bike racer. I still have a clip of you on the National Team.<BR/>Oh about my name on your ankle. Don't be breaking any more because you will have to explain to all of your friends that ask, "Who is that Rickie Rainwater character written all over your cast!<BR/>Your biggest fan. Go team Vardaros!Rickie Rainwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14315426223545490980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-15164826778798350362008-09-29T19:40:00.000+02:002008-09-29T19:40:00.000+02:00Hey flandriaI know marianne vos fairly well and sh...Hey flandria<BR/>I know marianne vos fairly well and she has always been incredibly humble and normal around others.<BR/><BR/>Hey chr<BR/>When you are 10 meters from the line and already almost a half bike length behind, you know it is not going to happen. But it was an exciting finish nonetheless.PEANUThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01084132705399321019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-85082763460633675232008-09-29T16:47:00.000+02:002008-09-29T16:47:00.000+02:00I'm seeing great races all over the place this yea...I'm seeing great races all over the place this year, the women's WC's was NO excpetion.<BR/><BR/>If Vos and Cooke had been beaten by the German pair we'd have congratulated them on not giving up and duking it out 'til the end. For them both to come out in top was awesome. The German's worked text book efficiency over the other three in the break, for sure they would get the result.<BR/><BR/>That last 500m may have been the most exciting racing I have ever seen.<BR/><BR/>Cooke on the wheel of Worrack, and deciding to switch to Vos as she passed... from the overhead shott the chase was just awesome.<BR/><BR/>Vos looked like she gave up, 10m from the line, I guess that's what happens when you mis-judge the sprint by just a few metres.<BR/><BR/>That is what it is all about!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-30441890341213881462008-09-29T00:50:00.000+02:002008-09-29T00:50:00.000+02:00I hope they have more coverage of womens races bec...I hope they have more coverage of womens races because I was inpired by those women. It's very raree to have a full women's race shown online. <BR/><BR/>I've read Vos, Nicole interviews in magazines and I find them very humble. I really admire their racing ability and keeping a level head at the same time.<BR/><BR/>Cool report!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
