Feeling queasy...
all day today. I think I will skip riding this evening. I did cut my hair though and feel better in at least a small way. How do people with long hair put up with it. It just drags you down.
On the cycling front... Festina who? Good ol' Manolo "Venga Venga Venga" Saiz seems to have set off the biggest doping scandal yet in cycling the other day when he was arrested in possession of "cleaned" blood and doping products after leaving a cafe that he entered with 60,000 euros. Also caught up in the affair are various doctor types who had over 200 bags of blood and plasma with special markings representing various athletes. Liberty Seguros, sponsor of Saiz' team, has promptly ceased sponsorship of the team immediately.
What a mess. You have the potential of 20+ riders becoming free agents in the middle of the season. And if the names of these other 200 athletes, presumably all cyclists, are released then the entirety of european pro cycling will be turned on its head. Who will be left standing? Or should I say riding. Do all these guys get banned immediately despite not testing positive? Boy oh boy, the lawsuits will be flying.
