This is one of the worst threads I've read here thus far...

I'll try to make a Boyer comment he maybe he turned into a child
molester
because he was so distraught with the false notion that he would have won
a
world title but for Lemond's infamous chase.


As an attorney, I have to admire that defense. If you're a good trial
lawyer, you could probably sell it to a jury.

Gee, this guy Spies has had injuries I've never heard of.
"Arm pump"?
At least he had his teeth taken care of.

Arm pump, as I understand it, is the development of the forearms due to
increased musculature which inhibits blood flow. When braking extremely

hard
on a roadracing motorcycle, the arms bear enormous pressure from the
deceleration G-forces. This happens 10-15 times/lap in a race. The

symptoms
of arm pump are numbing of the hands, leading to loss of hand strength and
more importantly, feel of the brakes and front end of the motorcycle. This
is bad. From the little I've read on the subject, the surgery unrestricts
the forearm muscles by cutting away a sheath around the muscles. It
apparently affects the judgement of selecting one's cycling companions as
well.



Motorcycle racing strikes me as one step away from Nascar mentality. He
probably idolizes Boyer.


Just what exactly is this 'Nascar mentality' you're referring to?

That sounds like some pretty ugly stuff. Having had some hand issues
myself, I can appreciate what a disability that can be.
As far as his association with Boyer is concerned--yeah. I hadn't
followed his more recent sordid history, but it's certainly sad.
