new "free" route on El Cap.......blah, blah, blah

Mt. Everest climbed by 90 year old dwarfs....blah, blah, blah

I lost my swiss army knife (a.k.a. my "swizzle izzle knizzle") somewhere between the REI parking lot and the rock gym....blah, blah, blah.

 

Now here's some real news!:

Lance Armstrong won the final stage of the Languedoc-Roussillon on Sunday. So take that, you scoffers. Such races are mere training rides for Mighty Lance. Watch him win The Tour in July and go back to your boulders humbled.

 

GO LANCE! GO!

Lance's newly designed race suit, the culmination of several years of secret development by our nation's top materials scientists and aerodynamic engineers, has resulted in the finest, most revolutionary breakthrough in competitive road bicycling. The US Postal service, official owner and sponsor of the new race suit, has plans to release it for public consumption in 2005, following Lance's victory in the Tour de France. However there is rumor that the USPS may authorize the release of a professional version to its employees prior to the conclusion of the Tour.

good thing he ain't got gonads left cause that shizzle would fizzle. blush.gif

 

Well apparently that was a critical design factor accomplished in cooperation between Lance and the suit designers. The modification supposedly saves about 0.126 kg/m^2 force due to pressure at a speed of 40 km/h.

yeah, but he only lost one to cancer, so they had to superglue on a little vortex generator to compensate for the asymetric drag.

The sponsorship ends at the end of racing season. Rumorville says that there are companies fighting to get this sponsorship, including NASCAR, AMD, and Barry Floor. 10 million a year for a sports team with one of the most incredible athletes to grace the earth is a fucking steal!

Only thing is, how long will they have LA for. My guess is a year, max. You have to think about the Postal Team's chances after Lance. If I were that team, I'd insist on a 5 year contract or something...

it'd be great if there were several us brand teams since there appears to be a number of potential sponsors, but the post-lance us coverage of cycling does not necessarily have a bright future.

i thought ashw was talking about lance's birthday suit. tongue.gif

 

that's because I was... Actually the Birthday Suit is a registered trademark of the US Postal service and your use of the trademark without proper legal consent or proper trademark recognition is punishable by a fine of $10 Million which will be used to fund US Postal Service Tour de France sponsorship for next year. tongue.gif
