Paris-Gruber - who's will be the most effective cheater this yearand how will they do it?

But I do love the sight of all those green paves on the start line.

did no one notice how Cancellara tried to hurt Chavanel on the 2nd to
last (I think it was) climb in the Ronde by holding onto the bottle
from the car (twice!)? just enough to make him have to accelerate.

No, but I give him an "A" for effort. Pro racers of all types will do
anything they think they can get away with, if it results in a win.

More proof that it never gets easier even for the highest wattage guy
in the peloton

It was on the Tenbosse:

and it was 3 times! Pretty funny. When he calls for the car, it
almost looks like he's waving at Chavanel to get off his wheel.

If it were a French company it could be Grubér,
and we'd have Paris-Grubér, which would be damn
near perfect.

If it were French it wouldn't need the accent aigu to be pronounced with
a long e, which indeed sounds like the English pronunciation of Roubaix,
wich is nothing like the French pronunciation of Roubaix, which would be
more like Grubère (but without the -re).

It's very frustrating when you people from English-speaking
countries correct my Ami-French pronounciation,
especially because you're so often correct - I speak
French like Michael Rasmussen rides time trials.
