That didn’t turn out the way I wanted

Boy that post below just doesn’t fit in this window hunh?

Well, NewsRadio Quote Month is over. Thank god! I was getting tired of the length of my titles. I hope you enjoyed them. If you like the show, please buy the DVD for seasons 1 and 2, so that they will release the rest of the seasons. I want more NewsRadio.

Short title, becuase I am sick and tired at how the recent links look. All cluttered and all.

It’s been slow trying to slog through my Quixotic Quest, but I did read 23 Days in July: Inside Lance Armstrong’s Battle to Win a Record Sixth Tour de France. Good read. I could not put it down, and afterwards I wanted to ride. Yet, I am so lazy that I didn’t. There are no excuses, but I seem to find one any way.

I liked the book. I love the Tour de France. Even if Lance Armstrong wasn’t in it, I would still watch. I was a fan of bicycle racing since I was a little kid. And I have watched the Tour on TV even before there was a Lance Armstrong to root for. Actually, my favorite is Jan Ullrich. Always the perennial bridesmaid.

Anyway the book was pleasant. It gave me more insight into the team strategies involved in racing. I was only disappointed in the fact that the author did not focus on the French rider, Thomas Voekler, much. For me, he embodied the spirit of the 2004 Tour when he defended his yellow jersey in the 15th stage finishing at the top of the Plateau de Beille. He rode the race of his life and just maintained his lead over the unstoppable Lance Armstrong at 0:22 seconds. Incredible! What gusto! He would lose the yellow jersey the next day, but it was amazing.
