Which rider’s name would make the best name for a disease?

[BumbleBeeDave]

My daughter and I came up with this game last year while driving cross country. We got out the Tour guide and went down the list. As I remember it, the winner was . . .

“I have to go lie down now. My Haimar Zubeldia is acting up again!” :rolleyes:

These names sound like ailments or body parts:

POSTHUMA Joost - bad saddlesore;
WEENING Pieter - obvious, isn't it?;
BACKSTEDT Magnus - that big muscle that runs from the bum to the neck; and
GLOMSER Gerrit - infection of dangly thing in back of mouth

[slowgoing]

Frankly, Bumblebeedave syndrome sounds pretty darn scary to me.

[BumbleBeeDave]

. . . that’s it’s always fatal. But at least you get a good buzz on before you die! :rolleyes:

It's like when you hear someone mis-pronounce Ottrott (Aught-Rott). Sounds like something you would need ointment for. ;)

Hey Junior; don't go out without a jacket
you might "Caucchioli"

My legs feel like "Badrogi" today

I had a rash on my butt, the doc told me not to scratch it, it might be "Kashechkin"

Ever since I ate that big bowl of pasta with clam sauce, I've had
major "Kirsipuu"

And that's just One team! (Credit Agricole)

If your skin is red and itchy, you just might have "Etxebarria"
Can't concentrate? head in a fog? Dizzy feeling? "Landaluze"
Well. what did you expect when you wear those tight shorts? "Zubeldia"
Yo, don't cough all over me I don't want to end up with "Honchar"
"Vanotti" This is what Jan Ulrich got the day before the tour started.
"Vanotti" can also be caused by listening to Moondance 8 times in a row.

Had enough? that's only 2 teams. I've got another 19 to go!
If you don't want me to do Rabobank next, send money!

Any racer from Latvia, Lithuania, or Estonia.....

...but a local news anchor. I have always thought that Lydia Culbina sounded like a bad disease.
