I give up on cycling as a professional sport - I really do. just when we had the most competitive tour in years, the winner is found positive for doping. anyway - congratulations to pereiro for a collosal effort. and it looks like landis will have time out to have that hip operation. interesting that although his upbringing was Mennonites Christian which reject modern amenities such as television or computers, testosterone is okay. there has been a few rumours circulating about some underhand actions to frame landis (it was said someone rubbed on testosterone in the form of cream) but frankly I don't have the energy to follow these stories.
today's training (and last weeks) was really, really tough. I just can't keep up on the flat - the weather in osaka is just beyond me. to give you an idea of the heat - osaka is hotter than the okinawa islands- the tropical islands way south in the pacific. as I often mention, osaka is just concrete which heats up to an overwhelming temperature. no amount of uchimizu seems to help and even the wind can be hot. I can imagine being a fireman. the place feels like it will spontaneously combust any minute. back to the air-con I go.....
