Let Carlos Ride...

Just my personal feeling, but I don't think he's legit. Call me jaded, but I can't even watch some of these pro races anymore. I blame Lance for my scepticism. Call me two-faced too, because I loved the Pantani years like no other. Just when I thought Ricco was going to be cool:( Richard Virenque looked great while cheating, but needed a cape or something to really work it. Put together a WWF-type league for cycling and just be above the board about cheating. No teams, directors, etc. Just character names, sequined kit, knee-high boots, maybe a couple guys in masks? I want to see Robbie Ventura interviewing Hushovdt and get knocked out of the frame by a rampaging "Thor" who charges the camera and rips into a 3 minute tirade about his shot at the belt being undermined by "The Crusher"Cavendish, and Ventura comes back into frame with his hair all messed up and throws it to commercial, "...we'll be right back!" Then, predictably, they play that SAAB commercial again!!! Hell, you could get Bob Roll back into good enough shape for some of that action. Now that would be worth seeing! Later! Travel Gravel!

Who's that guy with the flag of Texas sewn into his unitard? He can't weigh more than 150, but he just pulled his team car up Duez with a logging chain!
