And so falls the other (large) shoe...

The USADA released an overview of the USPS/Lance Armstrong findings today.  It doesn't bode well for the future of LA, or Livestrong...

The "overview" is 202 pages.  The entire document is rumored to be 1000+  !!!  For comparison, the Mitchell Report (baseball doping/steriods) was 409 pages.

Reasoned Decision

I've read about half of the above document.  Sounds to me like the USADA, USA Cycling, and very soon, the UCI and WADA, have Lance over a barrel.  


Also sounds to me, and it's really not a surprise, that LA has some serious sociopathic tendencies. 

It also begs the question, if all of this was going on, and not JUST with Postal, what culpability does the UCI have?  They had to have known...

Fun Urban ride last night.  Pretty good sized group that included Doug and Rachel on the tandem.  They did just fine.  Oh, did I mention that Rachel is sight-impaired? 
She has some vision during the daylight hours, but at night, she said her field of vision is about 5 degrees, directly in front of her face.  No peripheral vision AT ALL.  Did I mention that she kicked ass on the back of the tandem?
I cannot even BEGIN to imagine what it takes to just relinquish control like that....

Not riding Thursday...T-Ball games take precedence.

Saturday @ Rosewood won't be happening this week, as many of us are going to Camden for the Tour de Camden
Sunday should be going off at normal time.  0900 @ Greene and Laurens.

It's Beautiful...go outside and play...

Gentleman George's announcement as well today. Not really a revelation, just assurance. And yes, I agree, it's awfully quiet across the pond living in those glass houses.
