    Wow.

    I found that article strangely moving... and really saddening.

    Ah... he makes such a good point. I feel so sad that no one was there to cheer them on.

    When I do a time trial, and someone calls out my name (usually a marshall or someone of a lower grade as I pass them, occasionally someone of a higher grade as they pass me)... when someone calls my name it makes me dig a bit deeper.

    I understand his point... at that level, and with the precedent of having come from le Tour, it must have been really tough.

    It's a little secret you didn't know about us women. We're all closet Visigoths.
