Could be a bit more gold IMO.

It definitely is.

how do Professional Photographers taking photographs of Pinarello Bikes get this far in the world without understanding colour in any useful capacity, especially when The Point Of The Photograph is to show a specific colour. No respect to Richard.

I think he meant why don't they paint the whole frameset gold. Which I agree with.

Both. Looks a bit bronzey, which is not what Billy fought so hard for.

Yep - who lusts after bronze teeth ?

Fingers crossed for gold Sidis and gold helmet, at least.

For the next 5 years.

Vuelta looks like it's going to be scorchio

Followed by some hail and thunderstorms.

Shoes must still be at the painters. Gold Kato’s though

Not sure what's worse, that F12 or any Kato

no grill, no credibility

What’s disappointing is that there’s no cohesion in the finishes and hues of the various gold components. The helmet looks matt FFS, almost champagne.

Micheal Woods was a runner before cycling.

What?

Are you sure? I feel like a commentator would mention that if so.

Sad as he was undoubtedly, physically, a great rider. I just got the feeling he never really enjoyed being a WT team leader (sort of like Andy Schleck)

any Kato

To me they look like someone's stuck some tinded clingfilm to their face. Or a plastic bag flew in the way and got stuck there

Pics on the previous page look like they were taken at sunset which even made the Dura Ace wheel logos look like they were a bit golden but hopes dashed.

This winter did serve up my favourite and most unexpected Fabio Aru image

the face of regret

That Carapaz bike really is so bad. It’s almost orange FFS. I have no idea how it got the OK after paint.

And anyone who wears Oakley Katos needs a word with themselves. No exceptions.

I think the exception is anyone PAID to wear them. That's totally understandable.
