Big up to Dave Zabriskie for being only the third American ever to wear the yellow jersey in the Tour de France. (The other two also won it multiple times, but Zabriskie isn’t quite there yet.) To wear that jersey for multiple days in his first Tour ever is a pretty remarkable feat.
And then there’s BobInTheBuff.com, where you can watch Bob Roll (one of the OLN commentaters) ride a stationary bike stark naked. It’s a lot funnier on TV than in the little version on their web site, and it’s a lot funnier it you’ve actually been following cycling and know what a nut Bob is. All of which is a long way of saying that you’ll probably not find it nearly as funny as we did :-).
Lastly, I’d had my doubts about Lance’s chances for a seventh win, but I must say that his performance in the opening time trial makes you wonder.
Oh, but that wipe out yesterday in the team time trial! That so had to suck for him; you could tell that the emotional blow was far more powerful than the physical scrapes. Bummer dude – I’ll still be rooting for you!
And now he was forced to drop out of the race with the whole world watching, which must have seriously stunk. Sorry, dude – better luck next year!
