Floyd seems angry...for good reason?

In a recent interview with VeloNews senior writer, Neal Rogers, Floyd Landis tells how he REALLY feels.

To this reader, he comes off as frustrated, betrayed and above all...angry. We all have our own take on the doping situations that have plagued the sport of pro cycling and I pretty much hate them all. But read this interview and tell me Floyd doesn't have a reason to be angry. Does he get hot-headed and possibly makes comments that he doesn't have enough information to make...Yes. Does this reader agree with all of his comments and accusations...No. Does this reader think Floyd is madder than hell and with good reason...Yep!

Rain or Shine

Tomorrow is the first edition of a 3-week practice Crit Series presented by Cycle Logic. The weather forcast is calling for a high of 62 degrees, 14+mph winds, 30% chance of rain early with a 60-90% chance of rain during the bulk of the races and toss in some scattered thunder storms just for good measure...now that sounds like some good bike-racing weather!

Regardless of the weather, the show will go on. Tune back into the 5count blog next week for race results and a recap of the days racing.

Slipstream press

ESPN did a great story on Team Slipstream, their anti-doping efforts and their recent team launch in Boulder, Colorado. If you missed it, check it out.

Best line of the story...

"If we really want to keep doping out of this team, we have to keep how we win in the context of the human body. Some days are great, some days are not ... To agree to not dope, to never let that enter the context of a team, is to agree to fail sometimes. It is to agree to let your fans down sometimes. It is to agree to the fallibility of the human body. It is to sign that contract and live by it, no matter how high the pressure.
-- Jonathan Vaughters
