A bunch of lycra-clad posers.

First TDF race was won handily by a recumbent rider. So they banned recumbents. Must’ve really embarassed those idiots on the stupid bikes.

Be sure to catch Stage 20 which is a rare mountain stage right before the finishing day. After 19 days of racing, a stage with 4 climbs, the last one being out of category; I don't think it fair to think of the riders left in the GC as 'posers'.

Yeah lets just lay down and ride - sure makes it a lot easier! Recumbents in general are the some of the stupidest bikes on the road.
