Rasmussen Photo
There was a photo of Rasmussen floating around about a year ago where he was sitting with his shirt off and he looked sickly skinny. I want to show it to someone.

How does a guy like that get so skinny? Are there many pro-cyclist with a similar physique?

The best part is the tatoo on his arm. Seriously - if you have an arm like that, you should not even try to get a tatoo.

The tattoo is actually on the inside of his arm, but you can see all the way through.

Using steroids is the last thing he would want to do. Cyclists do blood doping: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_doping

First of all, I have to laugh at people saying cyclists don't use anabolic steroids. Cristian Moreni was caught using steroids today.
Secondly, Rasmussen does not even look human in that picture.

Yes, 1999 mountain worlds, and there was a big to-do about that when he began riding for Rabobank a few years later. People didn't like that he was wearing mountain world champ stripes while on a road bike. The idea is to wear the stripes only for the discipline you earned them in. That's why you see Cancellara only wear his world champion stripes when he's on his TT bike. Former champs sometimes opt to wear the stripes on their team kit sleeves (Cipollini) and some don't (Armstrong).
