i'm sitting here watching Ferris Buellers (sp?) day off .. .all about ditching class. ironic. we should now make a movie "Rassmussen's month of June off" .. where, if you're not up on things, the yellow (leader) jersey rider of the big race in France this day was pulled from compitition, fired from his team, humiliated.. a hoax if you will. . .all for not reporting accurate information of his where abouts during the crucial period leading up to the Tour. he missed 4 of 5 out of compitition drug tested, he lied to everyone claiming he was in Mexico with his wife, rather he was spoted training in the Dolomites of Italy mid June. this is a big deal. there are a lot of things you could do to cheat during that time, thing that would only be detectable AT that time.. . thus, we've lost 3 riders thus far in the Tour due to doping/lieing/cheating. it seems the process is working, and teams and organizations are holding their riders accountable. good stuff. i bet my dad would be glad to hear. ethics. we need them. and, we need to follow through with them. STAGE 3 long stage. i'm only going to comment on the last 200 m . . we we coming into the last turn .. menzies from HN, in the yellow jersey, dive bombs the corner in the left hand lane, bunny hopes the median, bisecting the corner, cutting off the dudes who stayed on course, and takes the stage. . Aussie style! cheers mate!!!
