How does Hamilton do it?

[Mike Kruger]

Results from the first TdF mountain stage (stage 7):
1. Richard Virenque (F), Quick Step-Davitamon
15. Lance Armstrong (USA), U.S. Postal Service, 04:06
21. Jan Ullrich (G), Bianchi, 04:06
25. Tyler Hamilton (USA), CSC, 04:06
....
70. Eddy Mazzoleni (I), Caldirola, 08:38
74. Santiago Botero (Col), Telekom, 10:21
....
Jaan Kirsipuu (Est), Ag2R Prevoyance, Abandoned
Jesus Manzano (Sp), Kelme - Costa Blanca, Abandoned
Marco Velo (I), Fassa Bortolo, Abandoned
Alessandro Petacchi (I), Fassa Bortolo, Abandoned
Luis Perez (Sp), Cofidis, Abandoned
Michael Rich (G), Gerolsteiner, Abandoned
Olaf Pollack (G), Gerolsteiner, Abandoned

I really don't get it.
How on earth does Tyler Hamilton hang up there on a mountain stage with a
broken clavicle?

The X-rays are fake, the crash was staged, the whole pain thing is a
dodge. Tyler's in supreme form but he needs the element of surprise to
attack on the Alpe d'Huez and the Tourmelet so he can ride the yellow
into Paris!

Well, it COULD be.

Regarding Ullrich replacing Hamilton...I just don't think so...Riis tried
like crazy to get Jan but it was no deal...I don't see Jan changing his mind
any time soon...There is simply too much bagage their...

Tyler took 2nd place at last year's Giro and if Lance weren't around I think
Tyler would be thought of as a serious contender on the podium in
Paris...Like maybe the top spot?...Don't under rate Tyler he may surprise
many in the next couple of years...including Riis!

Cordially,
Arous

After this mess up it will probably be on some domestic div 3
hick team back in the states.

I know ol Lance was glad to get him off the USPS team.

The kid really should have stayed with sailing his 420 back
in Marblehead or sking in New Hampshire. Cycling at this
level is a bit over that guy's head, as it is with all of you
North Americans.

I was referring to the types that weren't brought up in the
organized euro cycling system.

Guys like zoot call a circuit race a road race, and really only
had a bunch of city block crits to race.

You can't grow up like that and except to come over to Europe
and hang with guys like me.

Why would he want to hang in the back when he can be at the front? :)

Marco Milesi were lining up at the start line in Caldonazzo
at the Giro del Trentino?
