He was around the PCM (CyM) community at least since 2003 or 2004, I remember he took part in discussions on Cyanide forums back in those days, which were 1 or 2 seasons before he turned pro.
He became much less active after turning pro. Given he's now got wife and kid(s), and is famous for overtraining, he's probably not got that much free time to spend with us here.
Also, has he's done his whole career in dodgy teams, he probably wouldn't want to face too many questions.
Makes sense. I guess I wouldn't want to be subjected to a bunch of crazy questions either, and they're not even from a reporter.
@Avin: Nice double post! But I'm guessing, he logged in right before the new year dropped. Drunk Jani, remembering his old friends.

It's behind us, there are three new admins and I'm not one of them. I still keep saying that you (me on first place) should stop spamming! Your argument is bad and you should feel bad.

It tastes so good, why should I stop it?

As there's no way to get rid of it, I guess I HAVE to.

This could belong in the 'your cycling' thread, but belongs here as much.
I had a bug my bike GPS tonight while riding, so I stopped after a few km to fix it, in the middle of a small town. A black guy passed by, walking, but dressed as a runner, looking at me. It turned out to be one of the oddest encounters I've made lately.
After 1 minute or so (time to turn off the GPS, turn it on again, let it find the satellites, etc.), the guy comes back and asks if I'm tired already, how much I cycle, the we started talking about running, as I'm a runner myself.
He looked far from impressed by my performances, as I claimed ~38 min on 10k, which is far off the world record, or any local race winning time. Then he claimed he used to run competitively while in Africa (he looked a little younger than my age), because his distant cousin (geographically as well as relatively) used to be a runner himself. Guy name's Mo Farah. He asked if I've heard of him (who has not ?). He later claimed he's his friend on facebook. Said Mo trains a lot in Kenya (I figured he mostly trained at Nike's camp in Florida or somewhere in the US), he looked a bit surprised before agreeing with me and saying he saw this on facebook as well.
Not sure if he was serious or just pretending all along (I'd say the odds are bigger for the second), but that definitely was odd. |

Yup, quite odd. Did you add your new friend on facebook yet?

Very interesting story, Aquarius. At the first read, I actually thought you met Mo Farah and my face was like - for 10 seconds, but after re-reading it few more times I calmed down a bit.

For a moment I thought I'd try to see if I have access to Farah's friend list and try to match the picture with the guy I saw, but I thought he probably has more "friends" there than there's people in this town, and that it wasn't worth the time I'd spend checking it out. |

Wouldn't he just be a page? I mean, I've never found an athelete's personal account, even Under 16 players for Arsenal have a page.

Well this is more for Man-Game, but I forgot about this, look who I am friends on facebook with.My cobbled arch rival
My two favoruite ones are Augustyn and Blythe though, amazing guys and very approachable, spoke to them few times on facebook so I speak from experience
Also Alex Dowsett and Luke Rowe are legendary.

Alberto Contador has a personal account on Facebook, that's possible to speak with sometimes
