Finger Bang - This weekend in doping news

In case you haven't heard, Alberto got the shaft. The old 'clenbuterol in my Spanish steak' argument didn't hold for the Finger Banger and his results from 2010 on have been revoked. 



So now Andy Schleck will be elevated, 2 years later as Tour de France champion. Hooray!



The Friday prior, Lance Armstrong got the W from the feds on his case, mainly because Armstrong has some excellent lawyers. I don't care what anybody says. Does this look like the face of somebody who would take drugs?



Whatever these guys have done..or not done..it's always a good reminder that Finger Bang is an excellent song and super catchy. 


Straight Outta Bike Friday

Several years ago, I did the 7AM Group Ride from Rock Creek Park. As many of you know, it's a spirited ride and getting dropped is often a possibility for even a strong rider. A guy, who is on travel, rolls up on a Bike Friday. He gets up all the hills with the front group and even mixed it up in the sprint finish. Impressive.

I hadn't thought about that fellow for awhile...until now. Some young whipper snappers took some travel bikes and got their BMX on...all for the sheer joy of getting stupid. I'm debating what's more impressive. I'm sure both parties had equal stoke. Happy Friday, bisshes!!


Happy Friday!!

Mountain bikers are truly silly...but this looks fun. Also, real or fake?



Gap to Laceration

Resorting to BMX tricks on YGD seems like cheating to us in order to post material but this is a goodie...very painful to watch and I love a good horror flick. Enjoy your road bike my friends.

PA Cross Droppage

 Our boy Anthony Skorochod from http://www.cyclingcaptured.com/ sent us a classic cross droppage picture from the PA State Championships of Stephan Kincaid aka Geronimo doing what he does...lap people...even his own teammates.

...and we also found this little gem in cyberspace proving that Geronimo K. also works part time as a doctor at the local hospital. Rubber gloves can only mean one thing... Everybody looks way too happy here.
