Next.







Schumacher.
Kohl.
Rebellin.





All on Gerolsteiner last year and now all HOT for Cera. Kohl showed the scrotal fortitude and took the bullett, meanwhile Schumacher stated he was the next contestant on "Science is wrong and I'm the one that's been cheated." Well dumbass, your numbers come up again and this time it's from the IOC and guess what they're saying...CERA! Good luck explaining that to the CAS next month, I'm sure they'll cut you some slack since you pissed positive in a test from the IOC, not one taken by the evil french.





Also congratulations to Mr. Rebellin, who instead of keeping his mouth shut, has already stood up and said he didn't do it. Winner, winner! Here's two years of time-out for you as well.




Who'll be the next ex-gerolsteiner rider to be crowned an idiot? I think only time will tell, but this piece http://www.cyclingnews.com/news.php?id=news/2009/apr09/apr29news3 where the old Gerolsteiner manager says he's disappointed might provide some clues. He may have been naive, not paying attention, or whatever...but clueless? Come on.

April nonsense


I awoke to this scene this morning. I knew it was coming and every meteorologist had a hard-on talking about it on the news last night. With the hill having closed last week, there was nothing more to do than sit and watch it snow the nice big, wet flakes of Spring. I'd planned on maybe doing some nordic if the snow kept up, but as of about noon the snow stopped and chance for more keeps getting dwindled down in probability. I nordic skiied exactly ZERO times this past season. I was too busy at the hill and was having way too much fun skiing over 80 days.
So far, I've riden outside a whopping two times. I've got maybe 500 miles in my legs and all but 60 miles have been on the trainer. My legs are a bright butt-white and hairier than a Hustler shoot from 1970. It should eventually warm up, but it won't be "short" weather for another 4 weeks or so. I have until then to continue to bitch about the weather and my fitness I guess.
