Ernie Lechuga’s comeback continues By VeloNews.com Published Jun. 27, 2001 http://velonews.competitor.com/2001/06/news/road/ernie-lechugas-comeback-continues_956

I'm sorry, this guy is an idiot. His entire experiment is worthless from a scientific standpoint. There is no way to determine how much he gained from dope or from upping his training. There are plenty of amateur riders that work hard and don't resort to doping. Than, there are DBs like this...

Doping to win a gran fondo. Mommy must be oh so proud. http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/doping-ring-busted-in-andorra

Looks like a case of chain suck. This used to happen all the time on mountain bikes in the 1990's. The rear end kicks up because the chain stops and he kept trying to pedal. The other possible issue is the chain on Sram can fall off the top pulley on the rear derailleur. That would explain...

This seems like a chicken and egg debate. There is no coverage because there is no interest versus there is no interest because there is no coverage. Women's racing is where men's racing was in the USA around 1990. There was almost no coverage and very little main stream interest. It will...

One guess is that it could be a pulmonary embolism. That would explain the induced coma. They usually do that to reduce the chance of brain damage from lack of oxygen to the brain.

The truth about the doped bike. All the secrets of the electric battery included in the bike. Ingeneers answered to some questions we asked about Cancellara's races. Watch this video and you'll learn a lot about his bike, also named the doped bike. Just watch it : the truth !! We also found his...

Can we compromise and say city/suburban Americans that don't ride bikes or do anything resembling exercise? :D

I don't agree with everything the organizers do in regards to course and team selection. However, you do have to understand that racing in the US is not at the same level of acceptance that you have in Europe. Americans freak out if they can't get to McDonalds or Starbucks in 15 minutes. That...

Any predictions on the teams that will be invited to the tour this year? Obviously certain teams are all ready in the race. The early season domestic races could prove to be critical for a couple of smaller teams.

Rock Racing brought an edge to bicycle racing that increased interest in the sport. The sport has a tendency to be very conservative and stuck on traditions. The problem was that the management was disorganized and pretty much clueless. They were difficult to work with and never came through...

The press release mentioned the stage route going past Crystal Lake and then onto Highway 2. The climb is long and has a couple of steep sections. Too bad it's way too early in the stage for a major selection to occur. http://www.mapmyride.com/ride/united-states/ca/azusa/431439222578

Alex Howes has shown great promise. I'm not that familiar with Chris Barton, he is in a great program at BMC. David Veilleux is most likely destined for a great career in the states. I'm also looking forward to seeing some of the new riders on the Livestrong team.

Most of the current American Pro Tour riders are at or near their retirement age. Who will take their place in the peleton. There are a few really good riders making their way through the ranks. Do you think any of them have a chance at winning the Tour? Short list of potential riders. Tejay...

Radio Shack will most likely get a Pro Tour license. The other two will depend largely on their off season signings and financial statements. I could see Astana having serious issues over the winter. ASO will not allow Vino to race their events. I would suspect the Giro may also be resistant...
