Who is the coolest cycling type in the room?

Sitting around in our kitchen on sat night yapping over dinner the following conversation took place:

L.J. and his S.O.: "ya...we are thinking of visiting the giro or the classics on our next trip to Europe"

aka Zoie : "I saw the Tour of Flanders (insert discussion of great racing, Belgium and beer)"

snerf : softly in the background "I raced in the Tour of Flanders .... I think? or was that Flech Wallone?" .... after poking around the web and cyclingnews.com "ok...ya....I did that race"
