If someone has an eating disorder, they have my sympathies and my best wishes in dealing with it - but to expect the rest of the world to come to a stop for them is hubris at a scale that deserves a swift kick in the nuts.
Yep.

No one ever said Professional Cycling is a sport for everyone. I always wanted to be a jockey, but you won't find many that are 6'2" and 190lbs. I had to accept the reality, that it was never gonna happen, and move on.
