The cocaine was injected into him by a jealous rival, while he was asleep, and he had a natural crit level of 99%. I know this is a fact because I spent every single minute with him for eight years straight. (Look at the pictures of the '98 Giro and you'll see me running alongside or in the team car.)


Laughed out loud. Thanks.

I have ridden Alpe D 5 times (true) and never eaten haggis (untrue).


I think they test for metabolites of haggis.

Absolutely the funniest thread going for a while. After openning up that star trek thingy though I think I may have hurt myself laughing. Mr. Jackson do you have anything that might help my recovery?

It wasn't my haggis, it was my vanishing twin's haggis. Before I became a pro cyclist I worked as a magician in the circus and I would make my twin vanish from inside a padlocked steel case. One fateful day he vanished and when after the show I went to the usual spot to find him (behind the popcorn stall) he was nowhere to be seen. My twin had truly vanished this time. There was no other option but to run away and join US Postal. I never thought I would see my twin again, so when he showed up in my blood at the Olympics and then again at the Vuelta I was most surprised! Even Tugboat let out a yelp - but that's another story for another forum altogether.

No offense taken. With converts like you, I'll win my battle. Now take the message and shout it from the mountain tops!

Lance saying "I don't need that...", doesn't mean he doesn't use it to make "winning" a bit easier.

I don't need my coffee, or alcohol, or the other occassional crap that enters my body, but I still use it to get along...and I haven't got millions of dollars and a massive reputation to keep hold of.

HA! You only say that because he gave you a reacharound!
If it wasn't for LA and the sinister MJ, cycling wouldn't be in the sorry state it's in today.

All these confessions...
toughen up you wimps, cycling's an outdoor sport.

You don't have any choice but to fight the trolls.

You want to know what I was on?
I'll tell you what I was on...
I was in Boone on Beech mountain, with Martin.
I was lookin' for the power from Scotty.

I was on my bike..

Bring it!
