"come on postal boy, if you want to do the tour, you'll have to pull
faster than that." Quote from Gord Fraser at the CCC to USPS Mike
Creed (Who now leads the GC)

Gord,

Are you that much of a cat 3 weenie?? You should ****ing talk. Let's
recall your time in Europe....Tour-Boy. You couldn't hack it. And now
you're an old man riding your bicycle in meaningless races. Suck it.

Stage win and green jersey winner, Tour of Georgia plus Canadian road
race champion just in 2004.

In past years, arguably the most successful North American rider not
riding in Europe.

That's funny.
We were talking with one of the US Military Team guys yesterday who just came
back from Europe. He was saying that last weekend he was in a 3 man break at a
race in Belgium with about 20Km to go and they were being closed down. This
young U-23 German turned and said "Can't you go any faster?" The other two both
said "Hell No" or the equivalent and the kid just dropped both of them flat and
hung on to solo.
He couldn't believe how strong this young kid was at the end after they'd been
away for most of the day.

That's definitely another tangent...

IIRC Stuart lives in Toulouse, France. Maybe to fit some Irish
Potato-eater living in France he chows in the off season on O'Grady's
Au Gratin Potato Chips.
