I'm a fan of cycling. Any others out there? Supposedly cycling is second to soccer in terms of most popular sports. More popular to europeans than americans. I'm looking forward to a post L. Armstrong Tour De France. It will be more exciting, no clear cut favorite. I was a little disappointed and elated to hear that the top two riders were suspended by their teams and won't race the TDF. Saddened by the charges of doping. Elated because the chances of Discovery team and it's riders in winning the race. My money is on George Hincapie or Floyd Landis (americans of course). |

Here's another cyclist! :)
Well, without Vinokourov Basso (what a shame..) and Ullrich it's difficult to say who'll be yellow in Paris.. anyway I put my trust in Mayo and Cunego, and I think Rujano will be the surprise on the mountains. |

While many Cyclists have been caught using drugs. I feel Cycling remains one of the cleanist sports in the world... Because the authorities take a hard line in stamping it out, if you get caught there is no mercy, there is even a guilty until proven innocent policy. Cycling pulls no punches and it doesn't hide things under the carpet. Those guys are the most drug tested athletes in the world. Lance Armstrong himself has been tested 100 plus times. |

the french cops usualy got some automatic flash radars on road for those who go upper the limitation..
during the tour, they're in the obligation to put them off, because everyone could understand that there somthing wrong, no-one with the cycle can go upper than 90km/h while more than 200 km..
an other infos, mac laren and ferrari will change they're motorisation for car with pedal.. they just find a new drug for the F1.. but as the motors, the pilote can just one race jijijijiiijijiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii |

Barring any type of injury or crash, looks like Floyd Landis (USA) is gonna win. It's been pretty entertaining so far.
I remember racing the NORBA circuit and I would see Floyd Landis race. He raced the pro/semipro class. He didn't do to well. He was a phenom when he raced the expert class though. It's funny how he's excelling in the road ranks now. Maybe he should have stuck with road from the get go. |

oooh the favourite Landis got dropped heavily today.... looking like Oscar Perreiro , Carlos Sastre , or Andreas Kloden now!
I hope for Davud Millar a scottish rider to ride well... he's riding his first tour since his ban.
would you not agree this years race is really exciting as it is very unpredictable and an open race? |

Landis takes stage 17! What a race! Of the top 10 contenders after stage 17, Landis is the best time trialist of them all. But anything can happen still. |

Ullrich fired by TMobile. Maybe they know something we don't. |

Barring some catastropic event, it's pretty much said and done. American Floyd Landis wins the TDF. |

I hope he will not insult France like Armstrong did some weeks ago.
Armstrong is angry because French journalists said he used drugs. I really don't know, I really don't care.
Armstrong insulted the French soccer team. Why ? That was stupid and irritating. |

Just read the news, what a shame if it's true. Guess we'll have to wait for the B sample to be tested. |

If the team already knew, they would have fired him by now. At the moment he's suspended pending the outcome of the second test. |

if it were not an american, then the rider wouldnt be scrutinized a smuch, but im sure the french are still seeting over the last 8 years of not having a french winner.
Of course mishto being the self hating american would cheer an american failing and also someone i was congratulating
if he did cheat then boo to him, but until he is found to actually have cheated lets not brand him one yet. |

always the victim aren't you? and having to blame it on the french too? is that what the RightWing All Points Bulleting encouraged it's young followers to do?
nobody's cheering an american falling...we're cheering pissing in a cup!!!! |
