PULL OVER! NO, PAIR OF SOCKS.

Old joke that one. But, what about Super Mario? Mario Cippolini, pin-up bad boy of Italian cycling. Cippolini pissed off Tour de France officials when he inssisted on wearing red shorts. I forget which jersey he "held" - it might have been the points jersey - green I think. But, he should have worn the same colour shorts. But, Mario insisted on wearing his usual red shorts. If there's a cycling fan out there, they'll put me right.

Anyway, Mario made yesterday's BBC Sport web site. 60mph on the open road? Never mind red shorts, sounds like he needs a drugs test.

PS - there's picture of me here with my bike - won at a drawing after the 2000 DC Bike Rally.
