your email about the SS segment on last week's show.

You're (more) famous!

hippy <bowing> ;-)

Yes, I yelled out the same thing to my partner, who dutifully feigned
interest... :-)

um, yeah.....see my mildly miffed thread on aus.bicycle
concerning that!!!!

BTW, my partner in crime, bikesoiler, was wondering where you were this
lovely Sundy arvo, ie: spinning in the hills.....missed out on some
fabulous singletrack. :p

I want at least a beer as a suitable apology from SBS management,
failing that a apol via the cyclingcentral forum.......waiting
waiting...😠

The buggers left me on the cutting room floor! Though mine was the far pair
of hands typing. Talk about your contrived shot...

Nah, I'm sure I saw the back of your head in a few shots. And they
left the weirdo who sits behind you...

Dave - who wonders whether CC generated any traffic for CN (and if you
could tell)

yeah, I'm over it. Who wants to be famous anyway, the thought of bein
hassled by tifosi doesn't really appeal to me. :

I was down at the docklands photographing some famous
road bike-riding dudes and dudettes... sorry guys!

Scroll to the bottom for some of my images:

Hippy, you took the photos by 'Leo' on that page? I was standing o
that bend near the gutter (on the road) and under the cherry picke
TV camera

All I can say is that in trying to keep my ugly head off tv I got
photo of myself watching McGee + McEwen powering out of a corner. :

It was good to see all these guys so close up. Mcgee looked massive o
the bike, Cooke had really broad shoulders watching him go down th
straight and McEwen was smaller than I thought. Its amazing how he ca
compete so well with Cooke

BTW, Did you see the guy in the crowd with the BMX stack helmet riding
black Surly fixed gear bike? Nice bike, would be pretty rare in Oz. (m
sad bikespotting for the day 😉 )

Nope, scroll r i g h t down to the bottom...
I was at the other end of the field for the whole race, only
moving down to the stage for presentations.

I never picked McGee out of the bunch - I didn't know what colours
he was wearing. I focused on McEwan, Cooke and Graeme Brown.

Nup, missed him. Other than the race, not much else to report I'm afraid.
