I met Floyd Landis tonight
 

Floyd returned home and had a small get together to raise money for his Fairness Fund. Like everyone says, Floyd is a real nice guy and he doesn't like a lot of attention. All that's gone on since the Tour and the resulting fund raising he's had to do can't be easy for him. He's definately not Lance Armstrong, cycling seems to be the only thing those two have in common.

So I got to meet him, got his signature and picture taken with him and talked alittle. I asked him where his favorite place was to do training rides and he said San Diego. Weather wise Lancaster County, PA can't compare.

Sounds like fun. Post the pic!

I look funny in the pic so I didn't post it but since you asked...

Nice! A great memory

You don't look funny, you look like a mass murderer! Still, great night, I'm sure you'll remember it for a long time.

And now we've gone and hosed your bandwidth limit!

Sorry about that, I put it on photobucket and edited the post. Didn't think I'd get many hits. :)

"He's got Bud Light, lets pick him up"
"But he's got an AXE!"
"Yea but he's got Bud Light!"

You don't look funny. Not standing next to Landis anyway :lol:

Cool. My question to Landis would be, "Assuming you finally win your cases, do you think you can come back physically to compete at the same level as when you won the TDF?"

why is floyd always wearing a suit?

He's probably always ready to go to court. When I met him in Solvang he was also wearing a suit but I think he was coming from a hearing that day.

Did he mention how the hip is doing?

Definitely a very cool picture for the bookshelf!

No he didn't and it didn't even occur to me to ask. Woulda been a good question.

Floyd needs to learn how to wear a tie.

I know Armstrong and Landis aren't the tightest of friends but LA could raise more money in one evening then Landis could raise in a month. I would be a good cause.

he needs to learn how to wear a whole suit.....he just looks like a product sales rep in that picture

you know, you look a little like lance...

Maybe because he got a message from a certain Mr. Armstrong that told him that if Floyd wanted anyone to take him seriously, he needed to quit doing the Kid Rock routine.

....and Armstrong was right.

+1

You kind of look like Lance with a Monkees hairdo. Anyone else see it? Am I crazy?

All he has to do is wear yellow and ride a Trek, then R600 will dial it up and drop him.

Floyd looks kinda overweight, bubbly cheeks or what!

Floyd's face has always looked like that.
