Thanks, Whistler was a great day for me and some good lessons for Kona which I think will be another level up in difficulty with competition / heat / wind.
Super League should be fun. Looking forward to it!

i do think some of the antagonism towards lance was related to timing. After the chaos of 1998 maybe there was a chance - even a small one - that the sport would be cleaner; then in comes this arrogant Texan who escalates the arms race and the chance has gone.

Anyone here believe in truly clean sport at the tier professionals in any sport ?! I dont ....I believe there are athletes at the top of their game that aren't doping. Marion Jones didn't have to dope, she could have achieved everything without doping. Look at this massive margin..

It had/has nearly zero to do w/ the doping itself ~ as has been pointed out, Merckx, Indurain, et al were all doped up too. Merckx was before my time, but Indurain at least was known as a good sport and well-liked/respected, so nobody felt the need to expose/ruin him and he went away quietly into retirement with his dignity mostly intact. LA, by contrast, pretty much showed any/everyone the middle finger and all but dared them to take a shot at him... Guess what, people kinda (strongly) dislike being treated like that, so they've been more than happy to take him up on his 'challenge'; nobody is forcing him to keep putting his face in the spotlight, but he obviously craves the attention and all the scrutiny that goes with it.THIS.
It would be interesting for any of us to be stuck in a lift (elevator) with him for a coupe of hours, to see how we interacted.

We used to hang out with Rick Flair from time to time. Never met the Easter bunny or lance, though.

That eliminates Achtung Baby which has some decent stuff on it. Maybe everything after 1991 for deletion?A lot more than "some decent stuff", IMHO.

no way - between Numb and Stay alone, there is no way you can say this. See what RS and Irish Times had to say.

Their Sgt Pepper is a bit of stretch, but an EP turned into an LP that has aged very well.
