Dopers Suck!!!

Sorry it has been a little while for a new blog entry, but that pretty much sums up how exciting life has been here in CO. Joanna has been out of town, I have been pretty much permantly placed in the Colorado River kayaking, becasue of the heat wave that mother nature firmaly has her hands around our necks. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining at all!!! It is much more enjoyable in the river, and any thoughts of cycling need to be accomplished well before that morning cup of coffee. Anyway, there is an exciting weekend coming up down in Crested Butte. I have a race there this weekend, and we are going to take the camper over for a couple days. Joanna's mom is in town, and Monica (Joanna's Sister) is going to meet us in the Butte. Anyway, to pass some time, here is a really funny pic I found on another site. Pretty Entertaining!!!!! For those of you that don't know who is in the orange, that is Floyd Landis, the 2006 Tour de France Champion (Still under investigation for doping).

If it doesn't get any bigger, there is a guy in the black wearing a Dopers Suck t-shirt and wrist bands walking behind Floyd while he is being interviewed. The guy is sticking his tongue out at him, and the people in the back ground are laughing their asses off, including skiing legend Glen Plake (Purple Mohawk).

Anyway, a little humor on Monday morning. Stay Tuned their should be a good entry next week! Have a good week everyone!

You're right - the picture of the guy shadowing FL is really, really funny. Not may people would spend their time in such a productive and well thought out approach to alleged doping. And it's great that you picked up the photo and ran with it - you are a really cool guy too. The only problem is that the person wearing the t-shirt is infinitely more qualified to do the drug testing than the hacks at WADA/LNDD. Would you want your reputation and livelihood at the mercy of people with 6 months on the job? People who make up procedures as they go along? People who over-ride the software in order to get the numbers to match up where they want them to be? The dude should be wearing a t-shirt that says "LNDD LAB RATS SUCK".

I'd say, "me too" regarding jandeaux's comment; but I think the picture is stupid and the guy in the t-shirt is exercising his American right to wear anything he wants. And the French Open (tennis) chose to send their urine samples to Montreal instead of using the LNDD. Think about it; I thought that was an interesting decision.
