Sunday morning I got up early, dressed quietly, made my lunch, grabbed the dog, slipped quietly into the garage to put my bike up on my car and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour.
The wind was blowing 50 mph. I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad throughout the day.
I went back into the house,quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. There I cuddled up to my wife's back, now with a different anticipation, and whispered, 'The weather out there is terrible.'
My loving wife replied, 'Can you believe my stupid husband is out biking in that shit?'
I still don't know to this day if she was joking, but I have stopped biking on Sunday mornings.

His suspension took effect September 15, 2008, the date of his acceptance. Hernandez was disqualified from all competitive results achieved on and subsequent to March 2, 2008, the date his urine sample was collected at the Vuelta Independencia National, including forfeiture of any medals, points and prizes.

Enough Already
Unlike this picture, Greg Lemond has a hard time keeping his mouth shut.
Even after losing a ton of clout and respect with the American cycling fan base, Lemond continues to offer up unwanted advise and stick his nose where it doesn't belong, all in some ill-fated attempt at recapturing some of the lime light that he experienced in the 80's.

There's only one...
A couple of designer friends of mine got together and made up a bunch of these t-shirts. The first run sold out, but there may be a re-order if the interest is there.
If you don't get it...you probably shouldn't buy the shirt.
