Think you had a bad day at work?

OUCH! You have to feel bad for the guy. A real up and down for his first TdF.

Like the saying goes, a bad day on the golf course is better than a good day at the office.

For many of us there is probably a biking analagy. A bad day riding on the TDF is definitely better than a great day for most of us :slight_smile:

Nothing like a royal screw up in your job with millions of people watching and criticing. The look on his face as he was riding said it all…“Just get me to my trailer so I can cry myself to sleep.” He is going to be a hurting puppy on Wednesday.

What a puss. Lance would have lost his legs because he was going so fast but he still would have picked up his bike and ran to the finish line and won. Lance rules!

I think he was crying on the way to the finish. Poor baby.

Honestly, I think I would be crying too.

That was so heartbreaking.

For all you man-chicks that would cry, go read JR’s article titled ‘Men Today’ http://slowtwitch.com/mainheadings/features/women/men.html. Toughen up pussies. Should be mandatory reading for all young men.

Now, there has to be a ‘Priceless’ commercial in there somewhere from Lance’s perspective. Opponent bikes the fastest individual time trial in tour history, he’s leading the greatest race in the world after two stages, his team set to break team TT record in final two km, then he wipes out and blames a chain skip. Then some jackass pulls up behind you sporting a ‘Superb’ sign for the world to photograph. Priceless.

Shit, I was pretty much crying watching him roll in.

Just what I was thinkin’
