Professional cyclists tend to be those super skinny people who travel thousands of miles each season riding a bicycle. The faster running come the first and so give them a prize. For one thing popular recognition that they have been the best that day and the other a trophy, a stuffed animal, a bottle of cava, a hat Cordoba, bottles of wine ... Depends on the day and who is organizing the show. All this in a portable stage that goes through the same miles but head hooked to a truck, much less tired. The stage has a small stage or podium that is where the winner of the day goes to collect the audience's applause and gift duty. Not to feel alone in that big space, to give him awards and for the picture out pretty, are accompanied by two girls who wear loads of advertising. Here is where you start the topic that interests me.
The only representation of women in cycling tours is great as a girl-vase. Well, as work is not bad (do not know if they pay a lot) but the image they project is not nonsense. Since it is made of mannequin that is a little more dignity and that to us, who live below the Pyrenees are not given to us as well as those who live above. The French for that, as for many other things, have much more class.
In the Tour of Spain (except the last day) the podium is flat, ie does not have different heights. Cyclists are not very high, but the girls themselves and also bring heels. So every time that the first up to collect their prize of the day, is buried between two towers, like a sandwich. These, I imagine that by contract, are determined to approach the sweaty champion for photo-with what they have to release these armpits and waist surround them with his arm. Total: Sandwich plague. If you add this type costumes bum-bum of them already have the picture of God, that makes drool most macho attending these events.
In the Tour de France podium is higher in the center, that is for the rider who will collect the prize and lower for girls. They do not come close to sweaty turn to pose for a photo with his arm round her and simulating a kiss on the cheek this is for me the most vulgar, "but merely to congratulate the winner of the day and cheer from his position podium-plus-low-to-the-the-rider to do well in the photos. The dress is not here-we-been-a-cause.
So I encourage the organization of the Vuelta, as it will put news in the next edition, I think some of the girls-podium and copied to the French for that we have some years ahead .
The next photo is of the Vuelta a Andalucía, and this I do not know what to call it.
The female returns, the winners on the podium are not guarded by a pair of ropes cachot. They are accompanied by other very well sorted and sometimes a lot more diverdido outfit that suits the Rrrenfe.
