So...I guess the race would not give him a sufficient work out, his
condition must be awesome, no I mean aweful.

If nothing else I would've expected him to be there to work for Wesseman or Zabel. I think it's gonna be a long year. Forza Tyler! Bill C |

<Snip> > I think it's gonna be a long year. I think your right on this one. Jan could be going to use the tour as training for the Olympics and worlds, perhaps the Veulta. Anyone who skips a race to train, is on a longer path.... Simon |

Fill me in. > Remember the ecstacy incident with Ullrich? Sure. A random dope test, applied purely at random and a time when his relationship with the team was on the skids, due in no small measure to the random acts of irresponsible behavior he was engaging in. Yes, I know. I am such a cynic. Even so, I believe the testing authority was the Telekom team and would not apply to 'all riders'. Bob Schwartz cvcc@execpc.com |

Fill me in. > > Remember the ecstacy incident with Ullrich? (begin to stir pot) How about the timing of that Random out of competition drug test, eh? (add a couple pitchers bier and a couple pills) Pretty amazing they turned up the morning after that little incident. (a dubious looking eye of newt) What would they expect to find, but 30 proof pee? Not illegal, yet, was alcohol? I'm sure if it was, Edita Rumsas would have had a few bottles of Smirnoff and a slow drip kit with her at the border. (Lipton Instant Wing of Bat EXP:04/92) Do the UCI vampires have a habit of lurking outside bars favored by cyclists or was it a set up? (pinch of salt) Who were these friends anyway? Agents of competitors or UCI plants? (allow to cool) Who would benefit from Der Kaiser's suspension? (draw 10cc and inject) I mean, why would a rider out for rehabilitation from knee surgery be tested after a night out with friends? Isn't that rather innocent behavior? (pee in cup) Then again, maybe the vampires were tipped off about a certain bicycle smashing hit-and-run incident and figured it would take EPO or HGH rather than alcohol to induce such actions.
