Evans was 26th last year (horror Tour for him). Andy Schleck was 2nd in 2010

I misheard a radio report then. Cadel has had two seconds I gather. I do seem to recall the broken elbow as well. Was that last year? I'm sure you are right. I hope Contador is fully investigated this time. There have been too many rumours.

Boy that sure brings back some memories 
I had one the same colour combo when I lived in Canborough ! Every year about a month before rego check, I would spend most afternoons & every weekend welding up the rear floor with rust out panels etc. I *****ed about to a friend and he told me that every EJ & EH ute sold new had a built in clause in purchase contract that stated that each car came with rust   he wasn't wrong, I reckon I had my share and most everyone else's as well :lol:
It went like stink but the brakes was fearsome in the extreme 
Jump on 'em & next minute you were in the on-coming lane & the most of the time after you'd crapped youself, the thing made its way back to the curb on the left and you'd knocked off maybe.........15-20k's. I got outbraked by a granny in a corolla one day at a set of lights in Mawson, so I took it home and put disc's on the thing-it was a device-that being said, probably one of the most fun cars that I've owned

Here is the 150 series bull bar.
It is just the weight of the spotlights on constant vibration due to corrugations that it has fatigued and torn the alloy.

This is the only other one I have Leigh. The paint contrast is easier to see in this one.
It was a nice combo - 'less is more' philosophy.
