More thoughts on Landis:
He claims that during 2003 Lance asked him to stay in his Girona, Spain apt because Lance didnt want a refrig to fail while was away. The Frig had Lance's and Landis' stored blood in it.
Really!? Lance, having won the last 2 tours, would be dumb enough to leave an apt and let someone else ( teammate or not, it doesnt matter ) stay in it along with terrifically damning evidence right there in the ice box for a couple of days!? With no one to watch perfect saint-I'm not jealous of Lance's success-Landis ?! Really!?
Makes no sense.... Unless it is the detailed stories of a known liar trying to come up with a solid "his word against mine" case.

Quote of the week coming from Joel Friel:
" I’m afraid we have been led to believe that we must use exotic food and drink products because we’re athletes. That may be good for the manufacturers’ bottom line, but it really isn’t necessary for most athletes’ training and performance. "

Very rarely do we post anything to reveal our ever constantly maturing geekdom, but this news about the newest Android operating system soon to be released is note worthy.
Basically it will be 2-step, no-hack, ever so easy to create a WIFI hotspot for your laptop\CPU using your Android phone's 3G signal... A quick come-to-mind benefit is ALWAYS having free Wifi at ALL airports because pretty much all airports enjoy a 3G signal.
Android 4-eva!

We've always wondered this as well.....
Question:
I'm a great Cycling fan, but based on 150 riders using 15 bottles a day (2,250 bottles) how in these days of a green environment can they get away with disgarding so many PLASTIC bottles into the country side.... Has no one said this before ?
The most common argument against being too concerned about the bottles is that fans make a big effort to pick them up along the route each day. Indeed, I recall retracing a stage route after leaving the press room at the 2004 Vuelta one year. My son - then 10 years old - was with me and wanted to grab a bottle as a souvenir. No luck. Not one.
Frankly, if one wants to be concerned about the environmental impact of our sport, one might want to start with the incredible number of vehicles involved in major races. We did a rough count once during the 2005 Tour de France and concluded that if you count all of the team cars, motorcycles, race vehicles, helicopters, airplaines, trucks and the cars used by the media you would come up with a minimum of 2500 cars that cover the route raced by less than 200 cyclists.
