I like this guy more and more every time I see him, but would someone <i>please</i> get him a new undershirt? It looks like he took his current one out of the rag bag! It must be his lucky shirt.

No doubt, In my book he has been the most aggressive rider. He is becoming a one man wrecking crew. I like his heart and his style.

Great move on the Cauberg. Well it was the only move on the Cauberg that day. You can tell I am getting sick of having to watch riders look around at each other doing nothing. It worse than watching a CAT 5 race and all the riders refuse to pull.

seems he's finally managing to match his riding with his overinflated opinion of himself :wink:

He's obviously ripped holes in his undershirt (no doubt attatched to his shorts) for ventilation. I guess when you aren't paying for clothing practicality is more important even if you look like a swiss cheese.

Maybe it's his luck t-shirt. Oh wait, mohair already said that... Maybe he's into some sort of retro blitz-punk rock look.

Is it in his contract to wear the under shirt? It looks seperate from the bibs, so why does he wear it and rip the holes? If he needs ventilation, couldn't he just take it off? He had it on again the past two days in the 100 degree heat. Strange.

1. it most definitely IS NOT attached to his bibs. it is a base layer, which he is wearing UNDER his bibs.

2. the base layer is a whicking layer. perhaps he cut the extra holes for added ventilation, but the fact remains that he would be hotter, as well as more exposed to road rash, without the base layer, than with the base layer.

3. not strange at all if you know why he's wearing it.
