Just thought it would be a nice gesture, before the TdF crowd inundates us,
to thank the faithful here, those who are here year 'round, as opposed to
the sudden influx of opportunists who sit on the sidelines until Walsh's
latest book comes out and then jump all over anyone who thinks cycling is
still a sport.

In a couple week's time, it will be too late; the posers and wannabes and
opportunists who jump in, jab a few times, think they're so cool and then
disappear... those guys will somehow think I'm including them in the
faithful. Yeah right. Just because you come in a couple weeks ahead of the
'Tour and wait until the doping tests are completed before leaving doesn't
get you much cred in my book.

So yes, I'm saying even Anton gets a thank you for being a fair &
foul-weather kind of rbr poster.

And as a year around lurker let me say thanks to the rbr regulars that
make this newsgroup worth reading.

OK, I'm not 'us' but I lurk all year and they make it more interesting
in July.

We should **** with them and pretend there are no drugs in cycling

You know, this isnt a bad idea. Or maybe say its staged (pardon the
pun) like the moon landing, and do the conspiracy thing. With the
terrible year he is having, maybe Andy Schleck will buy into it :-)
