good pics...especially of the food. One good reason to ride is so you can eat what you want; that stuff they have looks like fresh emesis after a hard night of drinking combined with a bloody turd. Give me some hooters wings and a pitcher.

LOL...I take it you're not a pro cyclist fsc? I'm with you though. It is the one time when the food you need (high cal/high carb/converts to energy quick) actually meshes with the crap that we're not supposed to eat normally. Ship in the donuts please...

When I raced I had a good diet and never drank (in season), but it was always nice being able to eat a lot. I will say I never ate stuff that looked as bad as the food in the pictures; I'd rather just eat a clif bar. My problem now is I want to eat the same amount but burn 1/2 the calories. I have no reason at this point in life to eat crappy food, and I like beer (the good stuff not bud light).

A lot of former cyclists (and other athletes) have trouble with weight - it's difficult to transition from high calorie diets when you quit racing. Look at Merckx, he was big as a house. I thought I read somewhere he even had gastric surgery, but I could be wrong. Of course if I lived in Belgium, home of the best beers in the world, I'd be enormous as well.

According to Bahati's blog, R&R have announced the Tour of California team - Dopers r Us :

Quote:
The obvious 5 was the new pro tour riders on the team.
Victor Hugo Pena, Oscar Sevilla, Tyler Hamilton, Santiago Botero and Freddie Rodriguez.
There are three spots left to make up the team and one particular riders as said by team owner Micheal Ball has made the leap to the big leagues….Kayle LeoGrande also was named for the TOC team.

With only two spots left Ball picked the rest of the riders who would be competing for the last spots on the team. Adam Switters, Mike Creed, David Clinger, Rudy Napalotano and Doug Ollerenshaw.
I really did think my name would be called but I guess I’m not a warrior. However I’m working on it.

who knows what's going on in Rock land. There have been rumors that Cipo has left the building... again. Have no clue.

Also surprising to not see Grajales' name on that list too. As I said before, man do I feel sorry for riders such as Ollerenshaw & Grajales who probably signed with RR before all the um dopers were signed.

Not to mention Bahati. The guy wins Crit nationals then gets bumped for all the "Big" names. Look's like it's between Clinger and Creed to round out the squad?

I think the nose and ears grow when you are on HGH as the cartilage grows.

I would like to compare his ears from the start of his career. See the nose spread and point down, the tip grow further down, in body builders, and spread across the face too.
