Come back when you're femur is in almost 10 pieces, your hand broken in 8, your fingers dislocated and your collar bone snapped in 2....

then.... you've had serious


Reading Toselands book currently. He was sitting on the Vimto Honda 4 weeks after breaking both ankles, unable to walk or stand... and was only 3.5 secs off the pace....

Remmeber JR this season... ankle broken in several places... Saw him at Mallory, unable to walk, but out on the bike

Ahhhhh, the mind games already....You're not a serious racer unless you've been really badly smashed up.

In that case that bloke "Christ-on-a-bike" is probably the most serious racer there is - just think, crucified, stabbed with a few spears, died for three days, was resurrected and now has eternal life, can walk on water and his dad can probably pull a few strings as well :P

PS: I don't want any fundamentalist christians setting fire to any embassies or the scrutineers hut because their offended, so I'll apologise for my blasphemy right here
