Who's gonna win the worlds?

as i say, I am weirdly happy for the dog-lover. i wouldn't have expected to feel excited when he attacked, but i was - i think i thought the 'nearly-man' tag was a hard thing for anyone to bear when they have worked pretty hard.

...we'll just have to see how his tests look when they come back.
me too, and I like the fact he looks like he's just hanging on in the grand tours through sheer grit. Didn't he say 'I bloody do everything right in this sport, and still get bad luck'? I guess I'm just hoping there's one of the top riders who is clean.
