1st Portuguese Nacional Velodrome

Wtf, allez benfica!

The bike on that statue, if not mistaken, was is last winning bike.

Joaquim Agostinho. He used to ride for Sporting Clube de Portugal, yes THE FOOTBALL CLUB! ALLEZ SPORTING!!... He died a bit tragically, after falling down badly in a stage of the "volta a portugal" ***he did not take the right treatment, thinking he was alright.... later proved to be fatal. ***Our biggest cycling hero.

Proof you can't htfu all the time.

fuck that, now you´re going too far!!!!!

What, with Benfica? Stfu!

(On another note, there is a Sporting club in ladbroke grove :P)

duhh...really! no I DID NOT KNOW THAT!!

THAT WAS NOT THE FIRST LONDON ATTRACTION I went to....no not at all!!

just for the sake of being precise (wiki): "Joaquim Fernandes Agostinho, OIH (born Praia de Santa Cruz[1], Torres Vedras, Portugal, 7 April 1943, died Quarteira, 10 May 1984) was a Portuguese professional bicycle racer. He was champion of Portugal in six successive years [2]. He rode the Tour de France 13 times and finished all but once,[3] winning on Alpe d'Huez in 1979. He died after colliding with a dog whilst leading the Tour of the Algarve." ..... fecking dogs.

they should ban dogs from participating on the tour

Sporting Allez Allez

Maybe for you (LDNgrrl) this may not say too much, but my last name is ...Moutinho. rings any bell?

It couldve been a stray dog, you know there's loads of them about.

Sporting Allez Allez

Shush you!

Unless you're related to me that I don't know about, um no..

And of course, my favourite cocky cristiano ronaldo, I swear we were made in heaven... apart from his fake bake tan.

LdnGrrl. Why shush? Is that how you silence (literally) your rivals... You could say... "Uma ganza e um cafe, somos nos NoName Allez"

Haha, because it's Benfica for life mate.

u just made my point... all but that long haired freak are sporting fabrications

ok, stop that now, u can´t even name the players on that..."team"

Nuno, since this is a bicycle forum I have a question to ask. Do you have a set of wheels on sale by any chance... My bike got stolen last week and I have started a new build.

Nuno, you are right. All the great football players of the last 2 decades came from the Sporting juniors.

You're a bunch of Sporting gays :P

And sorry about your bike, Antonio, have you posted it in the stolen bikes thread?

I actually have a all bike to sell
