Anyone seen the cover of the 'Herald Sun'
(http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,20918184-661,00.html)
today? Just what is it about former high-profile cyclists and messy
relationship breakups? Ok there's always two (or more) sides to any
story, but kinda wish people would have more self-respect and keep
their personal [censored] out of the media.

*sigh*

I'm just wondering how the Herald Sun (and I suppose all the other
newspapers with the same owner that will undoubtedly publish this story
to save on paying their writers to come up with local stories)
determined that such a story is newsworthy? Must be a slow news week.

You may be interested to know (if you didn't already 🙂 ) that Phil
Anderson was one of Shimano's test riders for STI shifters. So ditch
the downtubes and you -may- be a chance....

I was just staying at a holiday cottage somewhere between Apollo Bay and Lorne just last weekend....

No signs of Phil's hard rubbish unfortunately 🙁

Just seen a promo on channel 7 and this stories on Today tonight tomorrow
night.
Can't be too much news around. Maybe news reporters are getting bored with
the bushfires.

gee, a relationship breakup is hard enough without a half-baked (or quarter-baked) version of the events appearing on the front page. People should be allowed dignity and privacy.

Clearly at least 1 of the 2 parties involved was keen on getting some
publicity.

Try to invent some psycho changers that'll change on command when you want
them to or programs itself into your psychic waves......I just wonder what
it'll do when i keep thinking I need an extra couple of gears...will it
deliver? maybe the next millineum moneymaker.
