Bad Case of Liquigas

No ride tonight. Massive down-pours, wind etc. Real wrath of God type stuff. My legs felt like sh*t anyway. Heat yesterday really took it out of me and I hardly got any sleep last night due to the neighborhood w.t. setting off small explosives ALL night. So I cross trained by going grocery shopping.

Every year I like to have a second team to watch at the Tour (besides USPS now
Discovery) This year it's Liquigas. Here's why...

That f-ing name!! You know if I was in the Tour that's what team I'd be on. And my family &
friends wouldn't even care that I was a world class cyclist. I'd STILL get made fun of because of that hay-noose team name.

Magnus Backstedt. Dude's a giant! He looks like he could crush someone like Roberto Herras with his bare hands. And he's good.


Bringing back the neon...

And the fact that they had this pict (although small) of a team wiz stop on their web-site.

And last when Liquigas is pronounced it sounds like Leeky Gas as in "chamois soiled by pre-race nerves" Ride on Liquigas!!

More storms in Wed. forcast so I'll need a plan "B". Probably my spin/wheight sweat-a-thon.


Y-Nizzle had to bail on pitting for me at Saturday's 6 hour race. Looks like I'll be taking Solo riding to another level. Thankfuly it's only 6 hours. I can pre-mix and have all ready to go. Camping will be a tad boring though.


Later.

I have had Liquigas after a festive night of drinking tequila. The mornings thereafter are NOT when you want to draft behind me.
