In Praise of Cav...

[Skip Madness]

Nah... Petacchi is infinitely more pleasing on the eye than Cav..

Cav who is to cycling visual aesthetics what Rooney is to football visual asthetics...

Petacchi... *drool*

He mentioned Cav having personality, not looks!

Those belong to EBH.

Come on Waffles keep those hormones in check

I've never seen you, so I may be doing you a terrible injustice , but I guess neither of us are as glamerous as Petacchi (or numerous female equivalent sportspeople - eg about 10 Russian tennis players)

It's the skill and, as Skip Madness pointed out, the personality that counts

Nah... I'm entitled to the odd shallow moment

 

[Chuffy]

He seemed fairly relaxed about it whatever happened...

That's ok then. I'm sure the chaps he brought down would agree with you.

Ten quid says that if someone else had brought Cav down in that pile up then he'd be spitting nails at them...

Go Cav!

I think he is judged far too much on his celebrating attitude etc... than the man himself.
He did look to be at fault for the crash, but I guess it happens, just a shame it had to be Cav. Let's hope things improve from him.

Enjoying the Tour though, quite entertaining yesterday.

Let's see what today brings!

I like Cav a lot, but I am becoming a little worried that his 'eccentricity' might be something rather more serious and potentially dangerous to him.

50/50 on that. My best guess is that it's a classic case of too much, too soon and he's struggling to deal with it. Hopefully he'll grow up soon enough.

I quite like the bloke as he is.
It's raining on the finish line today, just to complicate matters further.

I like Cav - the weight of expectation must be daunting for him. He's relatively young so can be forgiven for getting a bit over excited, can't he?

Good luck to him.

[Chuffy]

Good teeth.

I thought they had a touch of the Les Patterson's about them...
