mmmmmmm.....so has Purrrrrrth, & Ad(stone'dcrows)layd, but is Brisvegas' a restaurant with a difference?

The Belgian Beer Cafe,Café Bluestone is on the ground floor of a 19th century bluestone mansion that is home to the Institute for the Blind, and Sunday finds it beer gardens full of cyclists and it actually has a huuuuuuge bike rack.....plus monster oak trees ( hmm.... not too many of dem Yourupeeein trees in Brizzy!), and if you want miss dem militerry types the old Vic Barracks is just up the road, and JLO/DMO may know what they did with that special cami MTB requisitioned for Brisvegas!!


....ach, we both agree Belgium's got distinct attractions.
(for me it's De Konnick Bolleke, Vlaams, and frités).....* more lip smacking*
...Melbs just a bit closer!!

And Beerfest last month!

My most recent lot of mussels was at the BBC in Purrrrrth, made the visit actually worth it!, although I did get paid handsomely for the gig at Subiaco Oval too, (but that's another story!)

Maybe an up-date menu reccy at BBC is in order for lunch tommorrow, just to firmly set the salivators a-buzz, ( I'll take my Italian masseur along after she finishes my shaven legs and says so saucily "cinque" ( oh that is one naughty word...oops , I digress) and hopefully if I keep to task, there will be ample discussion points then to raise at the JunctionOval Pub-bug shareholders meeting on 26th...mmmm "the plan"........post meet, ride across to BBC may work, its just across St Kilda Road too (off the Parisian-esque Boulevarde).....what a day...donation to charity, footy match, good goatage ( IPA IPA IPA), pies, pizza, musica viva, a ride under oaks to frités and mussels with a Leffe or Chimay accompaniment!!

Great suggestion Tim !

Up until about a month ago, our *entire* centre used to think that it
was called the "soccer club". Hmmm, I haven't been the gin palace or
the great britain for a while. I wish all the fun people were still
working here.

i wonder if in that last hill/group the other ozzies (McGee, evans) 'help' rogers any?
altho sound slik they were a bit off his pace anyhows...

said it last year but this year's TdF is shaping up to be a cracker (as opposed to a procession, which the previous 12, not including the Dane's, have been...)

Only Horner was really helping Rogers, and i think that was simply coz he had his own goals. Still, Gonzalez did extremely well to stay clear on the downhill. They barely made any inroads into his lead on that descent. Maybe Rogers was watching Ullrich too closely was his downfall. Rogers was impressive throughout though, keeping a cool head, like when final climb he was dropped and was really impressive getting back onto the Horner group.

Rogers didnt get much help at all but other teams did not have many helpers either. You can see why he is wanting to leave Quickstep though. Lefavere (spelling?) is a bit of a ****** at times, saying they cant afford to paying want Rogers wants, no mention of the fact that there is barely any climbing or GC support at Quickstep.

"On a clear disk, you can seek forever..."

There was a female Tour de France just after the mens finished. I think it was about 2 weeks long but hasn´t been run for a few years now. I think.

I thought women were disadvantaged in cycling coz of just biological factors. Like biomechanical differences, body fat etc... I really have no idea.

Women in Australia are disadvantaged in cycling because not enough women
cycle. I'm going to turn that around. I'm going to be the biggest
distraction on the crit circuit!

So that means that you'll be cycling in the nuddie? Should help you race
to a win over the males (unless there are gay men in the bunch ... hmm.)

No, dude, there's few enough of us that I think lycra should do the
trick... so long as I'm already in front. Might have to get a sexier
bike as well...

I'm pretty sure I can think of some endurance activities that women seem
to excel at... I suppose you could call them sports...
