Tuff Ride Wrap Up

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

I got spanked and dropped. Ped waited for me. He was nice and rode slow. I had cramps in both legs. We caught up with ScottE and JT in Wayzata. They stopped for water since it was hot like. I limped back home. The end.

At the NSC Velodrome on August 7th.

This event will kick off three days of incredible action at the track, including the Midwest Sprint Challenge.

All your favorites will be there. Go and race, go and watch. Don’t miss it, you’ll never forgive yourself if you do.



Riccò out

Along with the entire Saunier Duval team…not really a surprise. He did want to be the next Pantani. Well on your way son!

We were laughing about Riccò on the Tuff Guy ride last Tuesday wondering when he would get popped. Seems like the dope controls are working, the dopes are being shown the door.

Tour pool updated.

Yes, there were oil spills from Hurricane Katrina.

Houston Chronicle:

Hurricane Katrina’s floodwaters unleashed 1 million gallons of oil from one of the massive storage tanks at Murphy Oil’s nearby refinery. The spill spread over 1 square mile and stained 1,700 homes, making it one of the largest environmental spills to occur in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

But it was far from the only one.

A Houston Chronicle review of data from the National Response Center shows that the two storms caused at least 595 spills, incidents that released untold amounts of oil, natural gas and other chemicals into the air, onto land and into the water.

And yet, our "liberal media" continues to host guests that spew nonsense about Katrina not causing a single drop of oil to be spilled.
