How many Teams for VDB?

Brian Lafferty

From cyclingnews:
Vandenbroucke not ready to give up

Frank Vandenbroucke may be down, but he is certainly not out. "I want to
be a racer again, I am not yet ready to stop," he said in an interview
on the Belgian TV show, De Zevende Dag.

The Belgian was released by Team Mitsubishi-Jartazi last week. He has
ridden very little this season, and most recently had been named as a
customer of gang drug dealers.
------------------------------------------------
Can anyone come up with a count of how many teams he's been on?
Terrible waste of talent.

I'd like to see LANCE make a come back too, although he never had a
drug problem.

It was a Sicilian defense to a queenie open.

Let's put it this way - when Ken Papai was accepting and posting the
pictures of everyone that was on rec.bicycles.racing, Munro didn't submit
his picture. Note that he is telling us all that others are mere a program
and not an individual. Perhaps "queenie" isn't far from wrong.

Should I log a bug report on the grammar module, or has someone done
that already?

Are we counting assumed names?

You mean the counting is a terrible waste?

It seems as if F VDB has been in trouble for much longer than most
riders' careers last. When did he start his "professional wasting career"?

Be nice to someday add Team Rock Racing to Frankie's list.

I agree, but he won't even last as long as Cipo.
