Pffft. I'll let you know when I see one.

(and since my tastes run to, shall we say, "softer" men, this may take a while)

Here are a few pictures of the USA cycling riders and more here.

We have a super strong contingent from the USA.

George Hincapie (United States Of America)Last chance I think, but the sacrificing rider will probably work for the others.
Levi Leipheimer (United States Of America) Relatively quiet this year, he should be in there with the climb involved with this one.
Jason McCartney (United States Of America)
Christian Vande Velde (United States Of America) Top Six in the Tour De France.
Didn't mean to interrupt, just excited to see our best guys go.

As long as some of the cyclists are cute, it's all good.

LeipHeimer and Hincapie could fit the bill perfect. They are both handsome.
The short and Tall of the team

BTW- Here is the link too the Live feed from Beijing the race just started.

I just downloaded the new Microsoft Silverlight player. I can't believe how crisp the live feed is for the road race.

The best part is there are no rattletrap inexperienced commentators at all.

They are covering every key move and change in the Peloton! This is better coverage then the Tour De France or any other race online.

Looked like an awful lot of Crotch Shots during the cycling (to me)

...it's cool seeing them cycle under/through the Great Wall !

LMAO! Yea they sure do. When you see them in a single file it means they are at least ( on the flat sections) doing 35 mph+. I've been there!

China is very green, plush. I like that.

Australia has a good chance! Too bad the Americans let this one slip by. Jason Mccartney is all over the front, since they missed the move.

Too bad, apparently baseball is not an Olympic sport this year. They have a substitute, but it isn't something I can get behind even if they're still calling it baseball. I propose that in the 14th inning batters start hitting off a tee.

The cameramen on the motorbikes are doing a good job of not covering the "nature breaks" while the riders are still going.

Imagine yourself on the back of a motorcycle with a 50 lb camera on your shoulder. Kudos to the drivers!

Okay, I concede, there were some hotties in that parade of nations
