  1. Both involved in high profile seperations (one is in divorce court, the other...). Jeff was
    definitely affected by his spectacular spearation last year, and the worst is yet to come. According
    to the NASCAR grapevine, he was playing the field. Lance can't go into the season without being
    affected by the seperation. Greg

    Only the Biggest Fred would bring the NECKCAR grapevine into this newsgroup.

    Speaking of NECKCAR, here's an article from a RAND guy who doesn't know anything about
    bicycle racing.

    About a year ago I was trying to explain the game theoretic aspects of bike racing to a friend of
    mine. I should have written it up.

    Hey Fattie -

    Do you know that cyclists are generally very unpopular with NECKS? Do you know that rbr is a
    newsgroup for bike racers?

    Ever wonder why the Jamul road race doesn't happen anymore? The NECKS became too big of a
    problem, threatening violence when the pansy, lycra clad cyclists clutterred their road 1 day out
    of the year.

    Go NECKCAR!

    Kyle Earnheart is my favorite driver, he's cute. I like Bobby Jarrett too.

    Well, if JG was 'playing the field', he has no one to blame but himself and deserves no pity.

    I'm truly sorry for LA & Co. if the almost inevitable happens. Celebrities seem to have it tougher
    than anyone else. Maybe it's their inflated egos, work schedules, who knows. Only a precious few
    celebrity couples can make it work.

    Reading through some of the posts, it seems like some folks here want there to be a divorce so that
    they have more smutty details to read later. I hope (most likely against hope) that their
    relationship can be saved. I doubt anyone who has been through a divorce was exactly jumping up and
    down with joy.

    Whatever the reason, losing a race like the Jamul road race is an absolute shame. That course was
    designed for truly epic races.

    Did you do that race when it was early February, organized by UCSD? If so, what year?

    You are a fan of all those things and you're a cat 1 and you have $13,000 in bikes? Wow! I'll bet
    you get laid a lot.

    Not to mention that you're going to kick my butt at the next bike race along with Head-up-his-ass
    Johnston. That is funny stuff. Tough Guys in Lycra. You two might want to start a website, there's a
    made to order clientelle for that sort of thing. You could get rich. Can I invest?

    I was there in '94 & '95 (I don't think they held the race in '96). We trained on the course, but
    somehow it didn't meet our training schedule. I think in '95 we had specific track training for the
    Pan-Am Games that kept us from doing it, although I think Dirk Copeland rode it since he wasn't on
    the P-A team that year.

    I remember one of the National Team guys doing pretty well one of those years. Zach Conrad? I'm not
    sure. Definitely a really, really hard course, 15 miles of hell.

    The NECKS did the race in. They were threatening the race marshalls and getting road rage - we
    couldn't afford to hire up bunch of cops to keep them at bay.
