Party Boy Boonen is back
I think I have a man crush going. Hope Jens is okay with it. Tommy is back on form. Spring Classics should be......classic.

So Tommeke doesn't like Lance? Only Alberto?
This team is a joke. Greipel’s team signs the best of the former HTC leadout train, including [Adam] Hansen and Hendy [Greg Henderson]. Eisel, who beat me to the line today is picked up for Cav, Boonen’s going like he’s back on coke again, and all these young guns are coming at me like a fucking tennis ball machine gone mad,” commented a livid Farrar
I think you've been gamed by the ST gang, Dan.
Farrar did yell "fuck" as he came across the line but the rest was apparently made up.
That said it was hilarious even if it wasnt true.
Dang you satire site [shaking fists]

Pretty sure Boonen snorted coke off a strippers back...so future coke stories are somewhat believable.
Oh how I have missed these exchanges. Spring is in the air!
Yep, I just found this on my Tivo this morning and watched the first 5'. A LOT of team changes I see! I'm not current on who went to where over the winter.
Will be interesting to see Renshaw and Cavendish NOT on the same team!
Yup, my DVR did an auto record on ToQ, on NBCSports (used to be Versus). Not only did (a) teams merge and (b) stars moved to new teams but (c) team colors changed in some cases, so one team now looks like another. At least Cav and Gilbert are easy to pick out. Soon, it will just be Garmin/ShackTrek/BMC vs Sky/GreenEdge vs Lampre/Liquigas vs Saxo/RaboBank/Lotto vs Astana/Katusha and the others fighting for crumbs. Check out this table if you're lost
So can we make this into a ToQ thread?
Man, who is organizing it, why do they have it, etc? ZERO spectators on the course until....about 200m from the finish where there might be about 2 dozen people wondering what's going on
Like the Abu Dhabi tri, I'm thankful my gas dollars are being put to good use. Meaning, funding some warm, entertaining training for the peloton in winter. Maybe they'll pay you to spectate? Or bring an EN contingent to ride the course ala ToC? They can only build so many skyscrapers and news channels.
