Given all the new participants in the last few editions of the sweetest cycling pools in the world, it seems a little history lesson is in order--just so everyone is clear about who the FGBC Cycling Pool royalty are. Here are the podium finishers for all the pools going back to the inaugural edition, the rather controversial 2007 TdF Pool. Anyone can reach the podium once by fluke, right David? But take note of those whose names appear more than once below. You will be expected to treat these people with appropriate deference.

Speaking of FGBC Cycling Pools, here are a few more videos from last weekend's Eroica Toscana, featuring more of the white gravel roads (strade bianche) the race is known for. Our boy Ryder Hesjedal gets some decent air time as well.

those nice warm looking vids are well timed...seems like the entire country is below -20C these days...
as far as the history lesson goes, thanks for reminding guys like me that early leads don't necessarily tell much about the finish, at least in fantasy race pools :)
keep exposed skin covered kiddies!
HEY!!!
Quite the cheap shot Mr. Huebner! I guess we'll leave all other cheap shots (be they basketball related or not) off the table. I'll let my NCAA pool monies speak for themselves...
Cheap? Me? I'm just checking to see if you're still paying attention.
I will pay attention. I will never pay homage.
You mean your use of the title "Mr." was ironic?
