Is it just me, or did Vincenzo Nibali win a Barbie Dream House throne? »

@Gianni The plan is to ride tomorrow morning. Of course, that is always the plan, but this plan is on the calendar. Then to work again. Thanks. I needed the Merckxes. I sincerely lack V right now. At least on the bike. »
Here’s where I confess my shame. The extent of my cycling lately has been watching others ride. I don’t get out hardly at all. I’ve allowed the starting of not one but two businesses take over my existence. I’ve gotten fat and angry at myself. I need to r… »

@piwakawaka This is an awesome link. Thanks! »
No swap. 10 points per rider isn’t worth it. And, bonus, if I win, I look like a genius. When I lose, which is of course, veeeeerrrrryyyyy likely, I stuck to my guns. But Wiggo. Oh, Wiggo. And I backed the other Colombian rider. Need Uran. Hmmm. VSP PIC… »
I’d be more excited about Cadel if he wasn’t wearing the ugly helmet. Not that I can get a picture of it here. You can see it at cyclingnews. http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/photos/giro-ditalia-evans-in-contention-as-alps-loom/265727 »
@frank Hear, hear. Thanks for what you do. We appreciate it. »
Oh dear. A rest day swap? It may be the only way to salvage my VSP. Two of my picks DNF. And I chose the wrong SKY Columbian. I went with Henao instead of Uran. Bugger. Good Cadel must win! A swap would be too costly, methinks. Go Good Cadel. Ride faste… »

I must presume that if Henao is there, Wiggins will be there. I guess. Evans gets a time bonus. VSP PICKS: 1. Sanchez 2. Henao 3. Evans 4. Nibali 5. Wiggins »

I’m going to stand on my picks. I’m a little worried about Wiggo and Hesjedal. But I’m sticking with Good Cadel. Don’t step on his dog. »
Of course if Bad Cadel shows up, I’m screwed. VSP PICKS: 1. Good Cadel 2. Wiggo 3. Nibali 4. Hesjedal 5. Henao »

@Tobin I did not see that coming. Good pick! »
If Ryder pulls this off, my VSP will stink, but it will be awesome. »
Oh, and Andy abandons. Which is a bummer. »
I also want to nominate Jelle Vanendert as a potential surprise. And John Gadret, because I just don’t want to give up on that ugly mofo. Likewise, I’m leaving out Purito and a stacked Garmin lineup. Nibali seems to have killer form, although he just won… »

If you haven’t seen Wiggo’s bike toss at Trentino today… you should take a moment… http://video.eurosport.se/cykel/bradley-wiggins-had-problems_vid274038/video.shtml »

Dear commisaires: I will take a Delgado, but my picks didn’t stick. What happemed? See above com ment where I describe my whole plan. Shit. This is what I get for choosing family over bike yesterday. If I am right… I will be pissed! »
@CanuckChuck Although it seems stupid to bet against Sagan, your selection is safe now that I have chosen someone else. I will continue to bet against Sagan, if only for the bragging rights when (if) he finally drops one and I pick the right guy. Moser… »
@Buck Rogers There is a stationary bike at the gym called an Espresso that measures your watts and lets you ride fake courses, like a bicycle video game. (Don’t hate on me for riding at the gym, lately I take whatever I can get). When I try to push it … »
@Deakus Looks like BMC is riding for Mathias Frank. He is Swiss. And BMC is Swiss, so, that make sense. »
@starclimber Yeah. But TJVG looks strong right now. »
