Hi, everyone. I have information about the trial.
The case [...]

First outta the box, and this one is friggin’ ridiculous, Fox Newser accused of dragging cyclist through Central Park.
The driver then accelerated, lunging straight into me, knocking me and my bicycle to the ground and to the left side of his car. I quickly got to my feet and positioned myself in front of his [...]

I’ll not be in attendance at this Friday’s summit in Flagstaff as we’re taking the kids to Sea World over the weekend. It will be interesting to see what transpires. I am hoping that cooler heads will prevail and kick ass bike racing will continue to prosper in and around Flagstaff. [...]

I believe Tyler… was doped to the gills.
I recently was able to secure purchase of the domain name ibelievetyler.com. I picked up the dot net version three or four of five years ago, mostly on a whim, and subsequently made a collection of “I believe” sites. (See ibelievefloyd.com, ibelievemayo.com, ibelieverasmussen.com, ibelievethechicken.com, ibelievevino.com.) [...]

I just got turned on to a real gem. I’m talking ’bout Van Halen, son. VAN HALEN! Ever hear of an old ass demo they put out back in 1976 produced by Gene Simmons? It’s rough. It’s unpolished. It’s awesome. Like most things in this world, you [...]

Yeah, this is how we roll at my house for Paris Roubaix. We’ve got some bleu cheese moule-frites with mayo (of course, you think we’re using ketchup? WTF?), and a few bottles of well chilled Chimay White. I’ve got to say, I stepped up to the plate this weekend. Last weekend, it was just frites [...]

Yes, we are on the eve of the Queen of the Classics, and instead of bashing FoxNews some more, I’ll move onto cycling for today (I see that the J-man took up my FoxNews bashing anyway, so I digress).
It’s throwdown time at Paris-Roubaix. Here’s who I’ve got one on my list for possible favorites [...]

He had to know they were going to watch him very closely. He had to know that. So now what? Is Lance looking at a ban?
France’s anti-doping agency accused Lance Armstrong of violating its rules Thursday for not fully cooperating with a drug tester and says it could punish the seven-time Tour [...]

As we all know, yesterday was the Tour of Flanders, like Mr. J I turned off the phone, didn’t read the internets and their series of tubes, and basically ignored all media until the race started at 5PM on OLN (I refuse to call is VS). I was NOT disappointed in the result, that much [...]

For most, the Classics is a general term used to describe a group of races taking place in late March through early May.  While the specific list of races is open to debate, most use the term in reference to Milan-San Remo, the Tour of Flanders (Ronde van Vlaanderen), Ghent-Wevelgem, the Amstel Gold Race, Fleche [...]

Just got back from Redlands where the RideClean Team pinned up and suffered alongside 197 of their closest friends. Only 105 finishers mind you as Jonny’s buddy Jeff Louder spanked all comers. That was hard as shit…all I did was drive the car and I’m spent.
Below — in the start house [...]

Hammy, still crushing it!!!

Someone got a little boozy on the plane ride back from Spain.
Old Mr. Armstrong, living it up on the ride back to get his busted collarbone fixed up had a little extra drinky drink on the way back, and got cut off (apparently), and then passed out. Good times for all I’m sure. This, [...]
