queenstage:Alexandre Vinokourov announced his retirement today while recovering from a broken hip sustained during Tour de France. It’s sad to see a rider forced into retirement like this, unable to exit on his own terms. Yes, he’s a doper who was suspended, yet I cannot help but enjoy his aggressive, attacking racing style and his weirdness, as seen in this photo. When he came out of suspension, he was technically not on a team so he rode in a “Vino 4-ever” jersey with his face on it.Vino 4-ever. I don’t really believe you’re retiring, even though it’s the most likely scenario. If you came back to racing, I wouldn’t mind.(Photo via Telegraph.co) -- source link
