Re: wonderful day for bike racing, bad day for cheaters

i don't see this as a bad thing!

I am much more comfortable explaining to my kids that these guys are cheaters and got kicked out. than i would be trying to spin it by saying they only cheated a little bit and "Leif, if you ever become a pro cyclist you are going to have to cheat to win."

down with dopers!!

and i am proud to be a cycling fan, what other sport is attacking doping so head on? If my kids were to ever become pro athletes i would hope they COULDN'T use dope to get better.

I'm sure most of you have heard of Operación Puerto by now.

Big news today...I see Steve Holland just sent a link.

If you haven't heard anything about this yet, I put a very brief summary up at http://www.erikv.com/blog/index.cfm/2006/6/30/A-horrible-day-for-bike-racing.

What a let down.
