Slick bike, but they could have used better matching bottles (or none at all) for the shooting.

It looks like someone has thrown some coloured electrical tape round his bike . Looks awful . Shorts look awful . PG just needs a hooter on the handlebars a red nose and some big shoes to complete the look .

Could look like Gilbert and Ballan went down together. Ballan's bike was in pieces.

Most likely because he needs to wear his WC shorts a little before racing in it. I know a lot of riders that doesn't like riding in an entirely new chamois pad.

I thought the UCI rule was team or white shorts. No black.

Lot of people hitting the deck today. Bummer.

Bummer we will never get to see how the race was won on the last climb. Must be a Hein/Pat conspiracy to cut the TV feed!
