Punchin' the time clock again...

Howdy Bike Racers! Ol' Curly is on duty right now (baby duty that is...) Hope you like today's banner... it was inspired by me having to go to work, one of my favorite views of Seattle, and the fact that I run on fumes most of the time...

Ol' Curly was as happy as a 6-legged colt at Longacres yesterday when he read the report about Hinault coming back to race again... ok, it's a cyclo tourismo, but still... the man is in his 50's for Whiskey Pete's sake... I hope he does well. Hell, I hope he wins... Hinault and Fignon are the only Frenchies that Curly likes... They was good in their day. Man, wouldn't that be cool to see the stars from 1986 come out to play again... Fignon, Lemond, Hinault, Kelly, Claude Criquielion, Hampsten, Zimmerman, Mottet... That would be some damned fine racing.

Anyone going to one of the Flandis book signin's...? I heard from an unreliable source that he was going to call it "It's not about the drugs"... but his legal team encouraged him to call it something more catchy... I gotta admit, that sub-title "The REAL story of how I won the TdF" sounds a bit like OJs book... "How I woulda killed Nicole... if I had done it" This is kind of a sad day and age for printed items.

Poor Tyler Hamilton... damn... that dude has served his time and he still can't get a break. He could always step down to P/1/2 and clean up at the local crits...
