Don't do 80 down Rt. 117, please... there are a lot of cyclists up there (including me) taking advantage of the wide shoulders and the shade in the summer. Not to mention you're liable to splat a deer.

You guys are spot on about the good roads here in Dutch Country. If you ever make it up Ft. Indiantown Gap way, check out Gold Mine Road that goes over Blue Mountain to Tower City... it's a motorcycle mecca. Also not super twisty, but a brand-new road surface and beautiful scenery is Rt. 117 from Cornwall through Mt.…

In 50 years, this will be bigger than Scientology.

Not to mention mulleted Russian cycling hero Vladimir Karpets pushing Alberto Contador onto the deck yesterday. Which was awesome.

Here's a pic of Hoogerland stuck in the barbwire. Horrible. (Aw, Nibbles. Here: [velonews.competitor.com]

Wait, are you saying Drawn Together was good or bad? Because I always thought that show was fucking hilarious, despite being the most patently offensive show ever put on TV.

I'm with you on Basso. He's looked awful and Liquigas hasn't been good this week at all. The guy I'd think might make a move is Vande Velde. He's on the strongest team, has tremendous support, and has nothing to lose by attacking. Garmin-Cervelo is done defending the yellow with Thor after today, and with no sprint…

Roman Kreuziger got caught in the chaos today, he's more than 5 minutes down. He's cooked. Gadret is almost 12 back, he was never even in it.

I am crushed watching that video. I was rooting hard for Chris and Levi this tour. The fact that he suffered those injuries and then rode like 35 KM more to finish should tell you how absolutely nuts these guys are. Also a shame for Wiggins and one of my favorite guys, Tom Boonen.

I thought the comments in the article were generally in bad taste. Fendi and I got into a Twitter convo about it; he was of the opinion that it's what Deadspin does and life goes on; I felt that certain situations (like this) were off-limits while others (like Jets fan on sled) were not as much. I think it's all …

Little known fact: Dick Knocked In the Dirt was the original working title for Dirty Jobs.

But then there's the G2 Stadium Program, which is just a watered-down version of the original.

The original G3 stadium program was a massive failure when it was realized that Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Eric Johnson did not have enough combined family members to fill the larger venues.

But... they got rid of the Nyan Cat time bar! Nooooooooooooo!

Yes, yes, no, yes, yes, yes, guy, no, no, would knife me.
