Top Ten Things that LA should do next
10. TdF fantasy camp (watch the commercial at Giro.com for the general
idea). Ride for the Roses is a good idea, but bring it out to the hinterlands and let us all play. 9. License a set of action figures. Complete with team, team car, TT bike, stuffed lions, podium girls, teesny little MJ that zips up the back, chopper, motocam, crazed fans, flags and foam hands for crazed fans, bike clothing, extra shoes, eensy-weensy LS bracelet, black-tie tux... 8. License something that would appear in the general money economy and can be purchased by the typical US consumer. Slurpee cups? Supersized powerbars? Yellow shirts, bike shorts, hats, socks, shoes, etc. that appear at *.Marts. Your turn! --Karen M. he forgot his shoes in stage one?!? |

Do a deal with Trek to travel to every city in Virginia and give away free Madones to guys over fifty who ride 100 miles a week? Hey, it could work? ;-) jj Your turn! --Karen M. he forgot his shoes in stage one?!? |

I love your action figure set idea. I'd buy the set - but the Lance figure
has to come with a detachable testicle though. (sorry, couldn't resist... OK - more realistic suggestions... Since the riders drink pop on the course, "yellow can" Coke (or Pepsi - whichever company antes up). Signature Lance Oakley sunglasses. FWIW, HP already released a "Live Strong" laptop. http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000620044080/ "Now, in select cases of Coors and Coors Light, a Lance Armstrong Yellow Jersey."
