Default Who will win Paddy's White Elephant?

The Paddy's White Elephant aka Beijing Tour

The race nobody wanted, especially the Chinese, none of whom showed up
for the Olympic RR and the punters you saw around the course were
factory workers who'd been ordered to attend.

Davey will throw in a wild guess and go for Samuel Sanchez

My wild guess is that almost nobody gives a flying **** including the riders.

100, 80, 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, & 4 World Tour points up for
grabs. Gilbert is first with 698, Evans second with 574. In 10 is Boss
Hogg with 260.

At least 5 or 6 riders who can use the points to negotiate their
contracts will care.

All true but I bet you the top ten places won't have changed after the Chinky tour.

Oh, of course! It's a white elephant because there's absolutely no
logic in promoting bike racing in the most populous country with the
greatest number of bike riders on the planet. There's no logical
reason that the UCI would want to get in on the ground floor of that
development, and there's no money to be made.

You've done well since joning the NG in July. For that you deserve to
be cut a little slack.

****ing Hell, I would!

I'm just saddened that a Fred posted that, instead of our resident,
but MIA, LiveDRUNK spokesmodel didn't post it first.
