Good question. Hey, they got big marketing out of all that. In Europe. Last time I checked the USPS doesn't do much of its business in Europe. Of course with Lance winning all those Tours they arguably got more than $32 million worth of exposure. I'm sure we all mailed more letters because Lance was winning bike races.
