Does Millar continue?
There was a long thread on Millar and epo, but I didn't see any discussion
on if he will continue. He's 28 (I think), so that makes him 30 when the suspension is lifted. He's already said he will sell the mansion he was restoring in Birrantz, France, and the supermodel he was supporting has taken off. Does Millar like to pay taxes, even Ja ja couldn't take those hits, and moved to Switzerland. I doubt if he saved much of his 800,000 euros, between the taxman and the supermodel, so it's obvious he still has to work. Will he wait for Liggett to have an unfortunate cycling accident? Where does David Millar, go from here? |

Where does David Millar, go from here? It's all up to David. He can learn from these episodes and come back in like Spotty Dick, of he could say 'fsck it' and do something else, like race cars. |

in like Spotty Dick, of he could say 'fsck it' and do something else, like race cars. Or motorcycles? He's one hell of a bike handler, though I don't really know how it translates to heavier machinery. Or he could be some sort of UN bigwig. He claims to be a global citizen, so that would be a match. |

The really exceptional bike handlers can probably ride heavier vehicles. It is the element of power and even higher speeds that makes the difference much more than weight.

The Vuelta stage that he won last year was not drugs, it was entirely courtesy of his superlative descending skills. The really exceptional bike handlers can probably ride heavier vehicles.

"TritonRider" wrote in message ... From: Sonarrat ail No, Millar is exceptional. The Vuelta stage that he won last year was not drugs, it was entirely courtesy of his superlative descending skills. I think that most of the smaller pro racers could transition to the 250s fairly easily as a lot of the riding skills are similar, at least in my opinion. Then maybe I should give it a shot. I rarely lose any ground to any cyclists of any category on decents or any corners and can normally count on the to close gaps or make one on my own. I don't think my moto slills are anything that great but maybe I have not tried hard enough. FWIW, I am also pretty fast on 4 wheels on circuits so although you might think I am being sarcastic, I am sort-of serious. In the bigger categories "He who brakes last wins" and then has the power to get back out quicker. I haven't ridden a 250 racer in years but it used to be that to be fast you needed to be smooth, there was a premium on keeping your speed up, and picking the fastest line with the least braking was critical. These are all skills any winning bicycle racer has to have. Bill C I am sorry, but there is a much larger range in the bike handling skills of the pros than most seem to think. You can win LOTS of races by going fast, especially on hills but still SUCK at riding at the limit of the roads. That is just the state of things. I am not even talking about Tyler bad (who for all I know simply has bad luck and poor vision). There are some guys that just totally suck. I can't think of any right off the top of my head (this generation seems to be a bit better, (or maybe the bikes, tires and brakes are). |
