Stuart O'Grady

[Dave A]

I find it surprising that nobody has mentioned Stuart O'Grady's recent
crash in Stage 2 of Tirreno-Adriatico. After hitting a pothole Stuart
crashed breaking his Collarbone and five ribs.

Ouch.

Best of luck with your recovery Stuey.

They really should clear the cats off the road before a road race,
shouldn't they? :)

Made 1/2 a page of news on Page 3 of our daily paper. Big news in Adelaide

It's been noted in my household. Damn tragedy considering his team
shannanigans between seasons and then a build-up to the classics, which
start this weekend. I've sent him an email via his website, but there's
no real point mentioning here because nobody here really cares about
pro racing, I've found. At least, nobody discusses it, anyway. I'm
obsessed, of course.

Ah, no, the lead up is just as important to watch for observing riders
form etc.
