Neil rolls into Dili

Thanks to Tim, "the ultimate cycling house-mate" for posting a link to this image in the comments (and thanks to Russ for sharing it).



In spite of the obvious team contract violations (non team-issue socks, extremely un-pro, black gloves), it's good to see him again. It's been strangely lonely at work without having anyone to ping with random bike-thoughts over instant messenger.

I guess actual international stage racing will do that, eh?

By the way, SBS's perma-awesome Cycling Central site has video highlights, starting from stage two.
