Shit….I wish I would have read this before going to the Pastaria for dinner this evening!!!

Here is what former rider and admitted blood doper Jesus Manzano’s has to say about the problems facing cycling

“It won’t stop until all cyclists say, `Stop,”’ Manzano
said in a February interview. “No rider wins by eating plates
of spaghetti.'’

Considering what I had for dinner I guess I can’t expect to win tomorrow!

On a different more positive note (sort of) today’s stage of Altoona was a touch difficult.  It makes me feel a bit miserable to ride hard and still finish in the second goup!  Guess I still have to lay off the cake…and apparently now the spaghetti.

Time for bed have to get up at 6 AM for tomorrow’s 9AM stage…ouch!

later, g.
