Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

Originally posted by Joe Public View PostMy understanding is that UCI disallowed the Softride/Zipp 2001 style frames, so they won't be seen on tour unless that changes. Triathlon has no such rule, and old Zipp 2001/3001 frames and even the new Dimond Bike are gaining in popularity there. The aero savings are significant.PLesa excuse the tpyos.

Originally posted by PaloAltoCougar View PostI cringed more than usual, perhaps due to my last cycling foray, but it was great. Wish I could crash as harmlessly as he does.Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.

Levi Leipheimer tweeted out this pic the other day. Maybe it should go in the "Ouch!!!" thread instead.

“Having podium girls is just too much. It’s to treat them as objects, to devalue them,” Landa said. “It’s a well-entrenched custom, yet no one dares to question it. And you have to admit that the women who go up on the podium are there because they are beautiful and have nice figures, and that’s not the image you’d want to project.”"Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf
