Been (as I've said several times on this board over the past few years), since Lemond came on the scene, a fan of Greg and later Lance, a big fan and supporter of American Cycling, and a devout follower of the Tour de France, Giro d'Italia and the Vuelta a Espana.

It's hard stuff to like now and it just couldn't be any filthier.

I need a shower.

Hasn't it been common knowledge for a while that cycling is full of juicers?

Don't know if the sport still is, but there's no way people could compete in the Tour de France of late 90's without using EPO or something else. I refuse to believe that given how many of the top riders of the sport have admitted systematic use since then.

What was I thinking. Of course it can.



I came across this this morning:

It referenced a video on youtube, so I grabbed that too.

gotta watch this. This motor is devilish and impressive:
