Seems PEZ has just published an interview with the infamous Kenny: http://www.pezcyclingnews.c...

I'll keep drawing inspiration from Kenny's story and suspect it will be the one I remember after the 2009 Tour is ancient history (read: in 3 months). Next time I am grinding up a hill, chasing the rest of the guys on the road (like I always seem to be) I will remember Kenny's Conditions for Quitting. THE Kenny's Conditions for Quitting.

@BlackJack's Mom - That image of Jens and Kenny in the hospital rocks! Guys, get well soon and we'll cheer you when you're back on the road.

I guess in the Pro Tour you can't get away with the pull over, pretend you are inspectiing a flat tire and let the air out of the tube!

heh - just saw this was already linked from the earlier post...
Geez, you really get a sense from the vid of the massive fight that they go through every day just to survive to do it all again. Phenomenal, a lot of courage...

Quite ironic that only a couple of days ago the story heading for Kenny was 'I'll quit when I fall off my bike.'

Poor bastard. Talk about Jinxing yourself.

Long live Kenny!

But I’m sure we’ll learn to love Yauheni the Hut. Or whatever we want to call him…

With Brochard retired , Karpets dropping the shag, and Wiggins gone all serious, we need Yauheni too.

I’m imagining Kenny and Jens in hospital together swapping stories and comparing scars. Any tears will be because they are laughing. Hard men don’t go away…they come back and get the job done.

Following Kenny was MUCH more interesting then following Cadel. Sad to see him leave, but he did go out fighting!

Great work CT

Loved the Lanterne Rouge tales, never thought I would be so interested!

I let out a loud "oh no!!" when the TV announced Kenny had crashed out. My wife came running into the room; judging by my groans, she thought Lance must have crashed!

Interview from just before the stage start:
Kenny: “I just did 45 minutes on the rollers so the start should go better.”

...and then he got dropped

:-(

Great stories about the Lanterne Rouge CT. You picked a winner with Kenny. All guts and little glory.
