Requiem For a Vuelta Dream

Sep 2 2009

Because I love derivative works, and because Team Astana was so nice to provide me with a nice, juicy source file. And, of course, because Chris Horner’s season has been so unfair.

    awesome tribute….nice mix….used to see Horner on the Wed Stadium ride in San Diego in the early 90s when he was a young buck! He used to destroy the group as soon as we got to East County and the climbs….

    It always makes me laugh when native English speakers spend too much time in Europe and start speaking with the same inflections and rhythm of the Europeans.

    You KNOW… you can HEAR… the WAY their voice goes up at STRANGE TIMES? Yes?

    You were uh long time…on duh ground

    We were just talking about Horner at the shop the other day. He can somehow tell the same kind of story George Hincapie might tell without sounding like a big, whiny, cry-baby. He might sound like a jerk…but he’s always entertaining.

    Good luck at GMSR.
