Well, GW Dumbkopf is a pretty fit guy and into running, so who knows, maybe he can be convinced to get a road bike.

There is a sad side to Mr. Armstrong's victories. Unless it's baseball, football or basketball, most Americans don't seem to care about other sports (like cycling) unless we have a hero involved in them.
We seem to only like what the media wants us to like. If there were more sports on the tube each of the overpaid performers would be able to demand less and all sports would be better off.

Now is the time to try and cash in on LA's victories and get more noterity for cycling. But how when he doesn't even race much here? Can we get him to race and be a spokesman for cancer surivors and bicyclists?

ok soapbox mode off
