The Tour de France kicks of next weekend, and though the state of professional road cycling is in shambles with doping scandals, I’m still excited. Here’s a quick Lance Armstrong highlights video to whet your appetite. It’s a wide open race this year. From an American perspective, Levi Leipheimer is our only hope for GC. In past years he’s been on “the list” but never rose to the occasion. Actually, he never seemed to quite have it in the big stages… my theory is that he’s been clean all along while everyone else was doping which is why he’s done well in the early year races and showed good form. Completely unfounded, but it would makes sense that most riders would only risk doping in big races. Go Levi…. though I never have been a big fan.
I just found this little gem. This is a good time to give a shout out (yeah, I said shout out) to my brother Tom and his blog at Marvel. Yeah, I know the Super Friends are DC characters, so what?
While I’m sharing, this is great…
I need a catchy closing phrase like “see ya!” “peace out” “keep it real” “stay in school“…
