News you can use...

Wanting to buy a carbon bike next year? You'd better go out and buy it right now! Word on the street from Eurobike 2010 is that raw carbon prices are going up...by about 66%!!! Maybe Toray is raising prices because they are now advertising on CNN...
Guess I should start looking for something...

Going to Geelong for the Worlds? Take your swimmies!

A. Schleck and Stuey got their drink on. Riis wasn't happy! Lighten up Barney...it's not like these guys haven't kicked ass for you all season. Of course, they are leaving your employ in about 8 weeks, so...

That DB Landis filed a whistle-blower lawsuit? Really? Even though everything he has in his pocket is hearsay? He's using the 'False Claims Act'? In that case, I'm filing one on behalf of the American people against Floyd for wasting taxpayer dollars for this utter fucking nonsense. Floyd will end up one of three ways. Living in LeMond's guest house, living under a bridge, or hanging from that very same bridge. What a putz!

As for me...
Doug and I did a great ride out into Calhoun County yesterday. Nearly three hours with some tempo thrown into the middle part. Out with a headwind, home with the tail, as it should be.
This morning I did the HoD(tm) loop with no real plan other than rolling my legs over.
I'm tired and mentally drained. The H.O.'s family decided to grace us with their presence last night. Of course, that meant I had to cook for everyone. I think they only stop by when they want some attention, and a good meal.

I also dug out my copy of 'Riding Giants' last night. It's possibly the best sports documentary ever made. The word EPIC should be used to describe this movie, and rightly so. If you haven't seen it, hit up Netflix and get it coming your way! It's beautifully shot and edited, and is more than a surf movie. Just watch it...

Peace and chicken grease...
