Not a bad throw for a European* but I've been spoiled by the likes of Tom Steels and Mario Cipppo

*nothing against our European brethren but they haven't grown up throwing a baseball like we North Americans

Haha Dale - I've seen some recent pics of yours (elsewhere ya know) and doubt those skinny arms could muster a better throw :-)

What's up with this water bottle throwing anyway? Yesterday I had to put down hard US cash to buy water during the Mt Baker ride; today I had to fight women and children at local water fountains for same. Precious stuff that you don't throw with. I guess the pros have it easy. Effin melting asphalt type of weather here.

He threw the bottle because the idiot on the motorcycle almost hit Sagan....why ban Yates for one day, he was driving, the mechanic threw the bottle (?)
