		<description>&quot;As a bonus for winning the climbs the first cyclist could also get to select from a number of ’special’ items to use against competitors&quot;

Am I the only one who instantly thought of banana peels, blue shells, and super-magical-sparkly-invincible stars?</description>

		<description>Might they just implement &quot;The Bungee Rule,&quot; which is:  All riders must be bungeed to another in order to keep a uniform and fair peleton, and to ensure a quality race for all.

Just another thought.  Plus it makes for good TV coverage since if one falls, all fall.</description>

		<description>Truly inspiration piece of writing this. Looks like my lead up in terms of training will see me in the GC if I get the nod to enter the TDF ever. I like the less hills and safer average speed incorporations. Itâ€™s a race for everyman at last with Fatty onboard.</description>

		<description>Fatty - I really think it would be worth the effort - just from the standpoint of annoyance, not to expect an actual response -  to get this translated into French and send it to ASO.  

Who knows?  Mr. Lammler might be working for ASO by now! It could happen.</description>

		<description>Clive O - Thanks for reminding me about head-to-head roller competitions. I&#039;ve heard of that before and it does look fun - for participants and spectators. But what you failed to mention...

FAT CYCLIST JERSEY SPOTTED - at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sswc2007.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Single Speed World Championship 2007&lt;/a&gt; in Scotland !!!

In the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.rollapaluza.com/?page_id=4&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;3rd video down (SSWC &#039;07)&lt;/a&gt;, one of the competitors is sporting a Fat Cyclist jersey. Is that you, Clyde? It appears he took 2nd place.</description>

		<description>One more improvement - Scheduled pee breaks with porta-potties (towed along?).  It would make for ideal TV commercial interruptions.  No longer would the cameraman have to suddenly pan away.  Takes away the advantage of having a big {bladder}.</description>
