Have any of you bicycle racing fans and/or bicycle racing jargon
experts ever heard the term "rouleur" used for a racer who is
most effective on flat terrain? Obviously, it's french.

Also, what does the "G.S." stand for which you see preceeding
many team names? I suspect it is an italian phrase.

Thanks!
