The French federation rented the Eifel Tower last week to promote the Nations and got the riders to hold up their shirts for a photo call with the national press. Check out the photo on the link

They got the friggin numbers wrong - that would mean Musquin riding MX1 and Frossard MX2 !

Sarkozy clearly ain't the only dick in France !

Eiffel, with two "f". It was just a photo shoot, they didn't "rent" the Eiffel tour. What a lame report...

That's just Hodgkinson. He's the same guy who called American riders "pampered arseholes" for not racing the USGP on their one weekend off between SX and MX. At least he's an equal opportunity cynic. He's actually kind of nice in person.

True DC. The guy is really cool in person, but become and old grungy man when in front of his typing machine. Kind like Geoff, actually.

Sarkozy is a dick, and whoever got those shirts printed is also a dick. There's also a fair handful of arrogant dicks at the French federation, u know, the one which had to ask for the date of the race to be changed after they spent a week in Cape Town on expenses, and didn't even notice until they got back to Paris that they had asked for their two biggest races of the year - the Nations and the Bol D'Or - to be held on the same day.

Anyway, learn basic grammar and you would know that the post above does not say that all Frogs are dicks. Far from it, in fact, though it's sometimes hard to believe when you see how lame the majority are when driving. Lame ass cretins, most of them; still, makes a difference from the Audi/Beemer/Merc getoutamyway nazis who think they own the autobahn.

U gotta feel sorry for Steven, Marvin and Gautier (who are NOT dicks !) at St Jean because they are gonna be surrounded all weekend by time-serving neo-liberal hanger-on creeps from the federation, sponsors, whatever; I got told at the weekend that the French federation have planned an AMA-style encampment with security to keep all the real people out.

Talking about grammar, have you looked at your reply?

You're a hypocrite who needs to stop being pedantic because Vital is just a messageboard Wink
