Haha! I was at a big American crit about a decade ago and ran into an ex-teamate who was on the line and ready to go - he must have had enough ephedrine in him to stay up for days! Twitching and pretty much unable to speak - he did rock out in the race though...

The old stories always make me reminisce... "Drug of choice for crit riders" is right!

I'm glad to see Ricco back. I'm hoping that he is clean and will be in the tour de france. What he did sucked(especially since I was becoming a fan), but hopefully he learned from it.

You're young, obviously. Still full of hope.

I've seen decades of doping tw-ats taking every fan for a complete fekkin' FOOL.

Yeah, they will be actually training together!:rolleyes: Did ullrich and valverde train together because they both worked with fuentes? Sassi said he wanted to work with him. Ricco said nothing about it! Idiot!

oh dear Cadel Evans no.1 fan getting tetchy. :rolleyes:

Since Cadel and Ricco live in the same country no doubt they'll eat out together. I bet Ricco brings Cadel around to meet his family, the Rossi's, now that Enrico is out of jail, then the Basso's and dont' forget Elisa's hubby Eddy Mazzoleni a great guy. All cozy wozy. Bravissimo;)

Some things never change. I lined up at a few races just last season next to guys who couldn't speak. Their answer, when they finally spit it out, "Too many Red Bulls."...... yeah, right.

Barely! He lives a handful of kms inside Switzerland, but you can cross into Italy without even stopping.

No doubt Cadel and Chiara will be helping Ricco get a bank account open:rolleyes:

Easier to transfer funds direct to the uci account
