It's probably Tommy D.'s wife. Either that or "saluki" is some sort of slang for chamois sniffer.

I see that you have acquired the finest education that a trailer park can offer, Bro.

So the entire point of this thread is for a cyclist to denigrate a professional rider's ability? Only a person who has never achieved jack squat would create such a thread. Sadly, this forum seems to be populated with quite a few of these negative people. Add in a dose of blatant jealous haters of certain nations, one even a moderator, and a few obsessed with only talking of doping and what does this forum have? About 10 "regulars" and an amazing amount of transients that get sick of the crap and move on to somewhere more positive. Time for me to move on.

Sure, Tommy D has some talent, but about 1/100th of the amount he thinks he has....that's why we all pick on him. That and he is anything but a team player. I hate to say it but some people bring it on themselves. Go read the crap he puts on his coffee bags; that will give you a few laughs if this place has you down.

Amen!

Try this site. It has a few of the same type of characters. But a much, much smaller percentage.

How bad would Tommy D suck if he didn't have Dr Ferrari?

Read his interviews. Also, he should be riding as a domestique, but considers himself a team leader.

It looks like Tommy D. is still stinking up the joint. He was on the start list for San Sebastian. No finish. I guess his busy amateur race schedule in Colorado was not the greatest preparation for racing with the big boys.

Take it easy on Tommy. He has had diarrhea for three years straight (see link). But as I said in another thread he looked pretty good at The Tour of California and Georgia last year. Maybe he had Pepto Bismol in his water bottle for those races.

It's not entirely Lil' TD's fault. He won Tour of Langkwai and was suddenly on the cover of English US/UK cycling mags being lauded as the next Lance. For a Euro rider to get this next big thing treatment he usually has to win Paris Nice or Tirreno Adriatico or something similar. He was hyped but that's not his fault - he's hardly likely to turn round and say, "actually I'm half the man you think I am, please cut my salary in half." And let's give him the benefit of the doubt (please Bro/WBT, just try!) - let's suppose that:
a) he really hasn't ever doped, that would explain his not fulfilling that promise. I mean, if USPS doping can make Hincapie a climber, then why can't it make a climber like Lil TD into a super climber?
b) this parasite he's supposed to have had for his entire time on Lance's team has actualy been the cause of all his below expectation performances. Now it's diagnosed and cured he's going to be flying - just like at San Sebastian where he didn't finish.

He does look like a retard though, there's no denying that, and it can't be blamed on a parasite.

Does he really have a book? God sake, he's going to start comparing his parasite to cancer now isn't he. "It's Not About the Bike Or Being Any Good At Riding It." could be the new title.
