One of the reasons I adore the Tour de France is the physical intensity of the tour (and the other major tours). I don’t think Americans realize how insane these endurance tours are. What these cyclists go through. I read this awesome article, titled “How do cyclists physically survive the Tour de France? We asked…
*snickers* Sorry, I couldn’t help it.
While watching Stage 3 of the Tour de France 2014, I couldn’t help but notice the gorgeous, wide shoulders (and large frame) of the stage 3 winner – Marcel Kittel. I promptly looked for more info about this sexy beast of a cyclist and found out he is 6’2″! That is very tall for a…
If you were not aware, the first stage of the Tour de France 2014 started in the UK! The Brits have The Fever and have been extremely photogenic (for once…hardee har har). Here is a site with additional adorable pictures if you want MOAR
This delicious French cupcake currently rides for Team AG2R – La Mondiale. A little older (26 years old) than our two 2012 TdF hotties, he’s also 6’1″. This is his first Tour de France and dreams of the polka dot jersey. Un-fun fact about Cherel – he was hit by a truck in 2010 while…
Following last week’s TdF hottie, Tejay van Gardenren, this week’s TdF hottie is Dominik Nerz. This tasty 22 year old hales from Germany. Same height as me – 5’10”. He has a three year contract with Liquigas-Cannondale. Want to be a creepy stalker? You can follow his Twitter feed here.
First up in the third annual Tour de France Hotties – Tejay van Garderen! This adorable 23 year old is an American currently racing for BMC. I just bought a BMC. Too bad it didn’t come with Tejay. I’d buy ten more BMCs if they came with a Tejay. hehehehe He’s 6’1″, so nice n’…
For a sport still dominantly inhabited by men, there is a helluva lot of pink in cycling. I think it’s partly due to the TMobile telecom team and their fabulous fuschia kits. While perusing cycling related stuff the other day, I stumbled across the following three items. Although I’m not a huge fan of Specialized,…
Today’s post is merely a link to Cracked.com’s hee-lare-eous article on why the Tour de France is so great to watch. I completely agree with the last three reasons. It’s the reason I watch it! Right up there with hockey! I used to read Cracked (and Mad magazine) all the time as a kid. Good…
Oh, Ivan. This delicious Spaniard rides for Euskaltel-Euskadi. Alas! He had a bad crash in Stage 5, broke his collarbone (although was man enough to finish the day), and is out for the rest of the tour (he had to have an operation, ugh). Stage 5 was a rough one, taking down quite a few…
