I dunno. I think next time I'll pick a team of riders I dislike, then I'll get at least some pleasure from the buggers succumbing to the curse of monkey.
Poor Mr. Menchov, that's all I'm saying.

Big crash threw all the plans out. Lucky Pettachi made his move in the right place again.
Anyone know if all the crashees got back on?

That was unfortunate for Cav, but he can't have all the luck all the time...

Isn't Cav going to abandon at the end of week 2 anyway to prepare for the Tour?
Looks like Petacchi is going to turn out the wise choice. Hopefully my picks of Davis and Farrar will pull in lots of points.

Made his day didn't it? You can see the similarities!
Not Cav's day at all. He tried but there was just too much to make up, not his fault at all.

I'm hoping he wins enough to make his inclusion worth while, although my whole strategy (of not picking dodgy Italians) now seems somewhat shaky.

I heard the later comments about Bingo, not knowing who they were referring to: Thanks to Crackle I do now and agree completely with JtM!
