Clarke and Dawe will forever own a place in my heart for their infamous "The Front Fell Off" bit. When looking at the SRAM video from another thread, I came across this: Clarke and Dawe on the Tour de France (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yuOYgKtyh0)

how have I not seen this?



What about Abbot?

Oh, well, Abbot really is a sprinter, of course. I mean, he's hanging on the back of the peloton. he's lucky to be here.

yeah, well he SAYS he's a sprinter

yes, he says he's a sprinter, but I've noticed he hasn't picked up any of the sprinting points.



That cracks me up.

Wow, those guys are great. I had never heard of them before this, so thanks for the post!

"Department is a French word for department".

And, "Two of them were, yes. You can't turn 'round at the front of the peleton and go in the other direction without causing some confusion...."

Great lunchtime laughs.

I remember this
The political events of 2010 will be well understood by Aussies.
Clarke and Dawe are compulsory viewing on Aunty at 6.50pm on Thursdays.

Clark and Dawe are to politics what Roy and HG Nelson are to sport :banana:

They sure seem amazing; the Aussie equivalent of Maurizio Crozza in Italy.

Sharp minds, these types.

This was hysterical. Sort of an Australian Bob and Ray... absolutely dry.

Thanks!

Oh, and thanks also for "the front fell off...."

What a world. I am undone by people who can make a point with so much humor.

"They towed it outside of the environment"

I love that. The Front Fell Off (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3m5qxZm_JqM) should be required watching for all oil company hacks before going in front of a camera in a disaster.

Great stuff. Thank you for sharing them with us on the other side of the world. Time spent on the internet can be of some use. That just brightened my day.
