racing hotness

So ~ since the Bella went all big and manly over on her site, i think i'm going to have to counter with some soft and sexy ova here.

I present to you ~ some of la femme fatales:

- - - - - - -


Nicole Cooke ~ she's won the rainbow stripes, races all over the world, snagged her own national road race like ... 7 times. And, she just won herself the TourdayFrance for women.

She wins in sprints, in breaks, stage races ... i'm sorry, but that's just a dominant chicka.

me likey.

Let's go Canadian and talk about Lyne Bessette. This woman road everything and challenged everyone ... all the time remaining a class act.

I loved seeing her pre-ride a cross course ~ she was polite, professional, and always cheerey and open to those she came in contact with.

Hell yeah, that's hot. I hope she comes out of retirement for some of the X-races this year.

And, on the American home front ~ one of my favorites is the hottie from Cali who won her National Championship jersey last year with a perfectly timed attack late in the race.

Kathryn Curi has overcome injuries and crashes this year and I think she'll have an excellent 2nd half of the season. Here's hoping the Webcor women use her to her fullest potential.

haaa-ot.

Going Eastern Bloc ~ there's Ina Teutenberg ...

... uh

well ...

she's really, really fast ~ so that's hot.

I'm pretty sure.

And lastly ~ gotta throw out a little love for that Kiwi-treat, Sarah Ulmer. She dominated Fitchburg this year by winning 3 stages in a row, including lapping the field solo in the final criterium.

oh baby ... now that is smokin hot!

and that accent?

just wanna pour chocolate on that and dig in.
