Pelotonic Observations

I've edited this post. Initially it was called, "Observations from the Field" but I like this title better. Plus I had to supplement observation numero tres since Theo Bos is supa dupa fast, guy!1. There’s a team here at Castilla y Leon called Caja Rural. Their jerseys have a striking resemblance to the Minnesota North Stars hockey jerseys of yore (lest we forget I played hockey from the tender age of three until I was seventeen). While there is a recent surge in the number of black and red kits permeating the pro peloton, green and yellow, however, exists in a league of its own. KoS awards seven merit points for originality. Mike Modano makes a guest appearance and throws in an extra three points for (unintentional?) retro flair.2. Alberto Contador’s SRM computer head-unit reads:“Contador”It is written in permanent marker, so it's not super-pro-custom straight from SRM. It is important to point out that I did not add the quotation marks above, as they are right there hugging his name on the SRM. Superfluous quotation marks on one's SRM are, well, superfluous. I think a bit of white out is the only solution. I would have filled him in on my thoughts thereof, but my handle of Spanish takes me only so far. And I don't know Spanish for superfluous.Alternatively, it indicates that he prefers to be referred to by his last name. "Yo, waaadup Contador? King here just saying hola. Byebyenow."3. Theo Bos is fast. Fast x 2, fact.
