Mike J quoted in WSJ
The Wall Street Journal devotes half a page to Lemond's suit against
Trek, which results from the Lemond-Armstrong feud (with a Lemond-Landis feud as a lagniappe). Mike J gets quoted: "When the biggest publicity the sport is getting is about doping accusations and former champions fighting current champions, it's not a good thing," says Mike Jacoubowsky, owner of Chain Reaction Bicycles in Northern California. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124459634335000647.html (gated) It sounds like they compressed the quote a bit, since I don't think Armstrong's a current champion of anything. -- Mike Kruger "I dream of a day when my children will live in a world without the shackles of cause and effect." -Stephen Colbert |

He is getting damned close with only 0.2 second between him and the yellow jersey. If he takes the tour he will set another record as the oldest man to ever win it. Can't beat that. Bill Baka |
