I believe that Armstrong did drugs and I'm an American, but that doesn't mean that I don't think he is still the coolest bike rider to ever live.
Good luck with your story, it looks really nice.
Strange that Rasmussen was left out of the comment. (sorry for the clinic argument), but, as they say "it's only illegal if you get caught, and armstrong hasn't been caught. |

Your team is too strong....! No, just kidding, It´s merely radioshack and a couple of other guys. I think it´s perfect.
You should keep an eye for tejay van garderen and Taylor Phinney, since your team leaders might be too old for serious competition in 2-3 seasons.
P.S I do love M&M even if we don´t have that much here in sweden

P.S 3 Despite your patriotism, I´ll still follow your story 
Pretty sure most Americans think he did drugs. I am American and I know he did it. So does every cycling fan I know. I just think everyone else was doing it so it doesnt diminish his accomplishments. I do think this guys sig is ridiculous though, looks a bit silly hah.
Jseas: Good luck with the story though, looks a lot better then the other ones you had going

TOUR DOWN UNDER - STAGE 2
Todays stage is considerably flat with 1 mountain sprint.
The 145 km race is taking place on what is a very hot but beautiful day.
Attacks began right from the start of the race. As the leaders finally settles some actually are involved in the break for the 2nd day in a row.
Leaders in Breakaway
Spoiler 1. M. Tosatto (SAX)
2. M. Cardoso (RSH)
3. S. Cummings (SKY)
4. M. Kohler (BMC)
5. A. Rasmussen (HTC)
6. S. Rosseler (RSH)
7. Y. Krivtsov (AGR)
8. M. Wilson (GRM)
As the break gets out to a 4:38 lead at the 115 km mark, it looks like they will battle for mountain & Sprint points. Meanwhile, Greipel is riding in the peloton alongside Chris Horner.
Sprint 1 - 107km to go
Spoiler 1. A. Rasmussen (GRM)
2. M. Cardoso (RSH)
3. M. Tasatto (SAX)
With 100 km to go, the leaders have a 6:30 lead.
Meanwhile in the peloton a rider from yesterdays break suffered a puncture : R. Perez Moreno, but remained in the peloton which was now being controlled by Omega Pharma - Lotto
However not everybody was lucky today, as with 75km to go, 4 riders fall off the back 3:45 behind the peloton.
Riders That Fell Off The Back
Spoiler 1. M. Pavarin (VAC)
2. M. Finetto (LIQ)
3. G. Van K (QST)
4. A. Lund (LPD)
With 62 km to go the leaders battled for the only mountain points of the day and here was the result:
Mountain Sprint 1 - 62 km to go
Spoiler 1. M. Tasatto (SAX)
2. M. Kohler (BMC)
3. Y. Krivtsov (AGR)
Here is the peloton riding under the mountain banner.
The leaders had a 4:55 lead with 55 km to go, and here is the battle for the points.
Sprint 2 - 48km to go
Spoiler 1. A. Rasmussen (HTC)
2. M. Tosatto (SAX)
3. M. Cardoso (RSH)
Down to 40 km to go, the leaders have a 4 minute lead. By the 20 km mark however the lead was only 1:20.
The break is captured with 8km to go. With 4 km to go Team M&M's decides to attack Chris Horner however the plan fails.
There is now a wild sprint to the finish line and Lance Armstrong gets himself an advantage. Alessandro Petacchi wants the win and GETS IT!
The riders off the back finish 12 minutes behind.

Nice sprint and good podium  Maybe profile of yours squad stats would be nice ?

That's not too bad at all Execpt Armstrong sprint stat, though it might be justifible as he is your only 'decent' spritner except Lacombe
Just now I realized you had Micheal Rasmussen in your team

I would say 71, but if on your behalf it will be more fun with 74 (you will get better results) so go with 74 |
