Tour of California [possibly spoiler]

I just wanna say I enjoyed the 2015 race as one of my better race viewing pleasures.

If you got it on your cable worth the view time IMO.

Talk about a nail-biter!

This was some riveting racing!

That was fantastic.
Yesterday might have been the most exciting flat/sprint stage in the history of sprint stages.
I was on the edge of my couch for the whole 2 hours.
And I gotta say, huge respect for Sagen.

Definitely!

That was some of the gutsiest riding I've ever seen.

Now maybe Oleg Tinkov will shut the f*** up!

But we're talking about him and he pays for that exposure.

How much of his blathering is from the school of professional wrestling?

We are talking about him, but in a very negative way.
So instead of celebrating Segans great ride in California and Contoders gutsy ride in the first week of the giro we are talking about what a jerk Tinkov is, is that what he wants?.

Or, we can talk about this guy:

Always a class act.

Agreed, not exactly what to look for in a securities firm.

--bashing an ex-executive
--undermining a top performer for simply performing way above average (This is the best argument that Tinkoff doesn't understand the DS position in this era of the sport. No rider can have legitimate high level ambitions every month of the season.)

OTOH: Voigt: introspective in the best way.
