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. Wes

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.
