Lance - Cross Vegas. Game on.
My sources have revealed that Lance - I gotta be like Mike - Armstrong will be lining up at Cross Vegas. You did(n't) hear that from me.
I am now fired up.
Or more fired up than I was if that was possible. After standing my aging, aching carcass in my 'biz dev' guy monkey suit and shaking likely disease riddled hands all day at this massive trade show and feeling the legs cankle-ify even further, I am finally back in my hotel room and have just been able to squeeze my swollen ass into my Skinz "i gotta feel mentally they're really working"recovery tights. Damn straight. I'm recovering so I can take on Lance in a battle royal. I'll be doing my best to pace with him and critique his rather poor remounting capabilities as witnessed by has 2003 'field trip' on his way to Gap when an EPO-laden Vino crushed the field. Lance's ride....essentially bunny hoppy Beloki and bombing the farmer's field...was awesome. Like hearing an incredible crecendo to a song.....but the remount when he got back on the road was like the record SCREEEEEEEEEEEEETCHING and put 'crossers in agony with that God-awful double-tap.
I'll ensure Lance get's 'crossy.
Hup hup, butter cup.

Greg,
That's a big 10-4 from Boulder City Nv...had several sources say he's in for Cross Vegas. Dirt demo was hot and hotter today....The crowd at the race will be nutz.
See you there!

Rock on Jon C! I guess I got the scoop then. Ha!
See you there homie.
He better haul ass back from NYC where he is announcing his comeback plans and launching his global cancer program....I sorta doubt he is riding.
I was gonna say... if he's at the NYC Clinton thing making his announcement and also racing Vegas..., well, the guy would really be extraterrestrial.
I hear you. But I am sticking with my sources. A G5 can work wonders for the wealthy.
Armstrong is scheduled to speak between 10 and 11:30 am in NYC -- so if he really wanted to race Cross Vegas, he could make it.
I just talked to a man who has the inside skinny on the man, and his response was "I don't know."...If the answer was NO he would have said so, I think it may be on.
Didn't Lance win a cross race in Texas a few years ago? I seem to recall that he was riding a Trek XO-1.

take it to the man keller
Greg's Mom says, My son speaks the truth! Give Lance my best and have a grand time! Do your best and have a safe wonderful ride! Good Luck. Love, Mom
well, he was there.
I'm pretty sure I'm not enjoying all the limelight he is stealing.
