    Craig Hummer must stop saying they are breaking wind.

    Did anyone hear the other day when they said Horner went to get a double cheeseburger with onions? I was wondering if it was In and Out? Maybe he is breaking wind if he is eating like that.

    It was In and Out Burger. That's my hometown boy! Eating like a trucker! LOVE IT!!!! Pity they won't be at the Cascade Classic this year seeing as how they should be at the TdF again.

    Does anyone know what went down? Like how Tyler and friends not only got caught but swallowed? Looking at the results from yesterday it looks like he was in after the main peloton? I know their lead wasn't great but then like I said some rude customer made me miss it. I tried finding clips but they didn't fill in the missing info.

    And yeah, Tyler's kindness is legendary around here. Doesn't surprise me, bummed that I missed it though. Sounded kinda cute/sweet.

    I feel asleep when they got in the flats but it seems like the got caught coming into the final town. I woke up to see the sprint. The peleton made up a lot of ground descending. As you know they had a nice lead but not huge so they got gobbled up. I didn't think they got spit off the back, but again I slept after the last climb until the sprint.

    I remember back before his suspension he was one of the nice guys of the peleton. It was funny, he cracks open the coke, drinks some, then nudges Belgian who shakes his head, he pedals up to Jason who happily takes it. It always makes me laugh when they are drinking coke because I crave Coke like a mad woman on long rides and centuries. I wanna slap someone for a coke! Too bad I don't have a team car to hand one off.

    And how the heck do those guys unclip and stretch descending? Jason McCartney was unlcipped stretching a quad when the motorbike showed they were going 40 mph.

    I'm impressed by how they dress and undress on the bike. With a crosswind.

    I can barely reach for my water bottle without falling over.

    Ditto!! I can drink okay, unless it is real windy. I get dehydrated because I am to scared to let go of the bars and they are pulling off leg warmers! Don't get me started on Mancebo urinating from the bike day before yesterday.

    boys come slightly better equipped for the ease such acts than women do..... (and a good camera man/director should recognize the nature breaks and politely shoot something else/switch to a different camera....)

    I don't think I've ever tried to remove leg warmers..., but as long as its not a sketchy road or really windy I don't have a problem with jacket/arm warmers on the go. I wouldn't try it in the peleton though... any risk of taking others down is enough to squash the desire..

    In the cameraman's defense it was the day he was in yellow and they quickly moved along.

    Arm warmers and jackets, I can remove. I have never tried leg warmers but I have enough trouble unclipping. There is a reason I ride for the pure joy of it and don't attempt racing.

    YES! I laugh every time he says that.

    Is Garmin Slipstream still sponsored by Chipotle? Last year the speculation was that they were "wind" powered thanks to all those burritos...

    I think it is no longer a title sponsor but yes they are still powered by Chipotle. The burrito is in the back pocket of the jersey.

    I wish we had thought to keep count of how many times he said it, that is what is getting more humorous. He is a guy he must know what he is saying.
