I'd have to see him in person, but I'd say he weighs about 170. It's reported he races the tour at 158, but he looked smaller than that to me.

I'm not too fond of the new outfits, not to mention seeing Ivan and Levi shoulder to shoulder.

It's going to be an interesting year.

I think I read about 15 lbs, but he still looks in shape, just maybe not for cycling.

I bet he used Matthew Mc's body and super imposed his head. :D :D

if they are allowed to and able to put a team in any races that we might actually get to see on tv, the new kit should make it easy to spot them, but beyond that, i think they look sharp - clean, lots of contrast. i thought this is what i thought they were going to do with the first uniform.

I like the kit too, except the shorts REALLY don't go with George's starts and stripes jersey.

used to see him around this time of year in the tdf days.. and he was always looking really bloated. notice i'm using the world bloated and not fat. some things make a body retain water i suppose.. maybe his diet or something.

i put him about 15+ lbs over tour weight from the photos. i'm sure he takes names and kicks azz.
la.... if you are reading this i am explicitly not saying that a dude taking steroids or some such would look bloated. like.. i know you're clean... we all do.

15+ easy. I think he's 155 or so during the tour. He looks 170+ in those pics. I'll bet he gains 5 lbs within weeks after the tour ends.

I read in his Runner's World interview that he ran the NYC marathon at over 180lbs! Gee that's almost to my weight :rolleyes:

Not as much as Tyra Banks.

That is remarkable.

Who wouldn't gain a few? He looks pretty fit for a guy in his thirties who isn't racing bikes.

Let's see ... back in '82 I was a mediocre collegiate and Cat 3 cyclist. I think I won a tire that year, but I was paid zero,zilch, nicht, nada, rien de tout, bupkes, nuttin' and perhaps was overpaid at that. I didn't have the stereotypical cyclist's body either, not having been born that way and having grown up playing competitive tennis (through one year of college), a bit of soccer, and some bad high school ski racing. I was pretty lean though, at the time. So...when I stopped racing, I put on a few pounds, and then a few more. If I'd spent the past 7 or 8 years at TdF weight, measuring each gram, calculating each calorie, to keep the glory and the millions and the legacy and the millions and the franchise running, and then I retired, I might have a couple o' beers and then start answering the eternal question with a "h=ll yes I'd like some fries with that."

yeah the links between cortinsone and puffiness have been greatly exagerated as have been the circumstantial links behind hgh and some handsome march/april potbellies.

No, the question is how much hair has he lost?

Curious minds want to know is he producing testosterone naturally now or does he supplement??
