Who will win the race? Pro cyclist woman or ex-hockey player?

Well Georges Laraque ended up at the hospital but he is ok now. As he says: She literally killed me, I'm ok now, just had my ego shattered!

Thank you for posting the link. I saw it yesterday but was not at computer to link it here. It was taken by someone I know from French bike board. He said the race was a good spirit. Also, if George had been in a compact gear it may have helped him. Reason for hospital visit was just that he could not catch up his breath. He did not see a specialist and was quickly released. Lex challenged him for a revenge by going on the F1 race track we have and do something like 2km sprint. I think it is next week but have not seen confirmation just yet for the date. We'll see how he does on flat ground. But she's an expert in time trial. So fat chance for him to win. hihi

What does "a former Habs player" mean? I read he was a hockey player, but what is a "Hab"?

[Helene2013]

Habs is for the Montreal Canadiens hockey team. It's a nick name given to the team.
