Maybe there is a "Lance Effect" afterall!:D

Sure, but you don't really need a Madone to ride your bike to work right? I guess my issue with the OP was that LA was somehow responsible for the hard work of others on the advocacy front... something that parallels the issues many have with "raising awareness" about other things like cancer...

+1. Certainly it will happen... just wait a few years. <cough>gene doping</cough>

I dislike the fact that he wraps himself in the "cancer" flag whenever someone questions his words, message, or actions. I also dislike the ambiguity between LS.org (cancer) and LS.com ($ for LA). All of this reminds me of US politicians wrapping themselves in the flag in order to spread...

AS doesn't think 30sec or a minute will be enough. He's hoping for 2min tomorrow. http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/andy-schleck-talks-tough-before-tourmalet-showdown I don't think AC will give him that opportunity.

I'm not sure paying their taxes is the primary issue... it's what was done with the money, right? If they bought socks, Gu and Livestrong trainers... no big deal. I thought the issue was buying PEDs with an off the record source of cash. I wonder if this is something that will be corroborated...

Is RS short a bike now? http://cgi.ebay.com/BRAND-NEW-TREK-MADONE-RADIO-SHACK-TEAM-BIKE-SIZE-56-/260636162232?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Road_Bikes&hash=item3caf2038b8
