I can't believe it. Fitz is going to get booted from the Army because he knows Erik "I only cheated once" Zabel. Well maybe not booted, but I am sure that the French will use this as a reason for them to not help in any NATO action for the next hundred years. With their normal path of logic, Fitz met Zabel, Zabel is a cheater, cheaters can't win, so Fitz must be a cheater if he posed for a photo, therefore we can't help a cheater in a military action in the future. At least it is something along those lines. By the time this photo gets out, they will use it to link Lance to Riis in some twisted fashion, via Joe Papp.
I found this pic in a file from the worlds in Hamilton. Fitz ran into the German team out on a training ride a few days before the Worlds. He couldn't believe how fast they were riding a day before the RR. Well now we know how. Wait, Zabel didn't cheat then, that was only in '96. Didn't he win his first green jersey in '96? But it wasn't because of the drugs, right?
Enough about drugs and cycling for today. I talked to the G-Man the other day and he was getting geared up for Ault Park. I think that it started last night, so as soon as I get the gory details, I will pass them on. He is riding better and promises the "Horner" bike spike before year end. I am really looking forward to witnessing that!!
One thing that is continually making me laugh is the incompatibility of G-Man and Whitlock trying to train together. Joe always manages to find Dave right after a race day, when he doesn't want to go hard. Joe starts hearing about racing, remembering the mystical '99 and then can't control himself and they end up driving each other nuts. Joe wants to go fast, G-Man is rolling getto low and slow and they can't seem to get a cohesive grove going. To hear both sides is hilarious. I expect fisticuffs by year end.
Other than that there is not much to report. There is extremely limited racing this year, since Goar took his ball and went home. He had me all jacked up for racing, then got scarred off by 48 TT's. TT's aren't real bike races anyway, so I am not sure how that was such a threat, but whatever. Hopefully, we can get some good old American crit racing back in the schedule for years to come.
The only other thing to post here today is that T-Rent is a homo. Don't shower with him.

Of course Trent's a anal ranger...we all knew that.
In order to shower with him, you would have to see him at a place you were at. Since i train and race bikes, i don't think i will see him much - word on the street is he has hung it up for 2007 as March Champion.
