How is this sport for geeks? I love cycling and am an aspiring amateur racer myself. I bike commuted every day of the work-week last year, through the rain and the dark, and it was the most addicting thing I've ever done! If nothing else, you get incredibly sexy calves and a seriously good cardio workout pumping up those hills...my partner's never looked hotter to me, and we both enjoy tearing across town together.
Just read the news about Landis. So bummed...although I do wonder about it, I mean, the guy has been a rather outspoken critic of dopers, and I'd imagine that he could have had some extra testosterone from those painkillers he has to inject for the hip. I guess either way, I still admire a guy who can ride the toughest race in the world on a dead joint. But man...I really hope it isn't true. Seems like the process of dope testing, as well as the how the results are interpreted, is extremely controversial. I wonder why?
