Adrenaline Theory Backfires

I hear that next year--if Lance wins this year and chooses to go for #7--the
whole Postal/Discovery team will crash at the start of the TTT to take
advantage of the TTT rules confusion.
After that they will crash one rider every stage to "give them a short rest"
and allow them to easily ingest food and fluids.
A risky strategy, but with the advent of the planned 2005 Nike foam-filled
skinsuit--designed just for this strategy--it just might work.

Won't work. Just got out of my Time machine (Trek and Colnago are
working on their own versions of this handy device) and saw that the
TdF will be won by Cunego, but 14 minutes, utterly slaying everyone
else. Simoni was so embarrassed to ride as Damiano's superdomestique
he rode half the race with a musette over his head (with eyes cut out,
of course, UCI regulations, y'know.) Hinault and Merckx didn't last
very long on their return to racing, both looked good until the road
turned upward and they pulled off into a cafe to drink a few pitchers
of beer.
