Welcome to the Tue, 07/04/2009 – 02:10 edition of Off Topic! You are looking at the next step in the evolution of VCN, the Off-Topic page. Have you ever been frustrated because you had a burning desire to call someone a sandbagger and could only hope to be timely by posting your comment to a photo gallery page or on a page describing a charity ride?
Well, your prayers have been answered! You can post your comment from the home page and it magically comes to rest here with the other orphans from the land of Misfit Comments. The page gets refreshed every day, but not to worry! Each day’s page will be archived and treasured, so you can look back on past pages with pride, shame or disgust-depending on how the day’s conversation went. So post away! We’ve got an internet to fill up.
Versus, another Tour on mute…can’t stand the samevoices, old cliches, and especially theme song…
don’t look a gift horse in the mouth. if you had to suffer through the years tour coverage was a 1/2 hour re-cap show on espn, today’s versus coverage would seem a gift.
listing cliches
“on the rivet”
“dancing on the pedals”
“spot of bother”
“lance, lance, lance”
your turn?
“full disc wheel” (Paul)
“suitcase of courage” (actually enjoy that one)
Paul just varied to “solid disc wheel”
his first bit of misinformation by saying that Lance is putting his head down to get “lower” implying more aero when actually every time he puts his head down (and tips the back of his helmet up) he becomes less aero.
“these bike are made for speed, not maneuverability” one more time I’m going to scream.
Two more comments about riders using “solid disk wheels.” Get a grip Paul, they all use rear disks, find something else to comment on.
“whistling turbo”
Please don’t pay for Versus.

F**k them are their “American” coverage of a Euro race.
