I was just surfing around and found this article about the automobile manufacturer, McLaren, naming their new 2013 MP4-12C, after Mark Cavendish. They are even painting the car a “green jersey” satin that changes up in the sunlight. Those guys from England getting sports car named after them and being knighted is a step up for the sport, for sure.
The Willy Voet model has enough room to carry all of the team’s drugs.
Does anybody else look to see who’s driving when they see a “Tilford” vehicle going down the highway in the Midwest? Haha. Love the blog.
Awesome!
Buy 2, as it requires a lead-out vehicle.
After further testing they found out that it can’t go up hill without stalling.
Actually, they only named the color after him. The car is still the MP4-12C.
What’s with the luggage?
Actually, it can. But only backwards. As a proper sprinter…
And a few years on when they all come clean as dopers will it still be a step up for the sport?
The shape of this car makes me think of Leipheimer and how his extraordinary TT abilities were explained by his extremely low frontal area and the way he could make himself more aerodynamic than anybody else in the peloton. Behold the extremely aerodynamic shape of the McLeipheimer. Don’t they explain Cavendish’ sprinting top speed in a similar way too? Sure, no magic. Just plain aerodynamics.
Yes, I do in fact check the driver of Tilford-like vans while on the road.
