Monday Musette – Think Spring!
Here are some things to keep you busy during the Tour’s second rest day: 1. Two weeks ago, I directed you to check-out the Flanders episode of Cervélo TestTeam’s documentary, Beyond the Peloton.

Monday Musings – Death of a Legend and Suisse Wrap-up

Monday Musings – Boonen Etc…
As I’m sure you’ve heard, Boonen’s tested positive—again—for cocaine—again. For now he’s been suspended indefinitely by Quick Step and will most likely miss his second consecutive Tour. Of course, we here at Pave hope for the best in this case, but it’s tough to see how he’s going to talk his way out of it … Continue reading

Turkey for Me, Turkey for You…
I’m still reeling from the video of yesterday’s final stage of the Tour of Turkey. What a way to bring the sport to new audiences! I hope ESPN includes it in this week’s “Plays of the Weekâ€. Maybe they can create a montage combining this footage with pictures of Tyler Hamilton winning Gold in Athens … Continue reading
