Looks like Floyd wants to take on Lance in the dirt
Looks like Floyd wants to take on Lance in the dirt
Does Landis have dirt skills?
As we all know, Lance does.
Ummmmm yeah, Floyd was a XC guy before he moved over to the road. He was the Jr National champ in 1993.Does Landis have dirt skills?
As we all know, Lance does.
I wouldn't go that far. It's going to be interesting if it end up happening.^ cool.
he'll still lose, but it should be fun.
He'll be fine, I promise Hell, he would race the TdF in July if he could get cleared from the doping scandal!Uhh, just how competitive will Landis be with that new hip? How much time has he spent in rehab?
........... The real question is, do you need dirt skills to ride leadville?
That is the question. A few of the 100s I've done have consisted of a LOT of dirt road making it not so much a question about bike handling skills but more about grinding up long dirt climbs.The real question is, do you need dirt skills to ride leadville?
Floyd has incredible mtb skills. He'll be very difficult to beat.Ummmmm yeah, Floyd was a XC guy before he moved over to the road. He was the Jr National champ in 1993.
Landis started in the dirt and was a badass. I'd pick landis over lance in the dirt on a normal course under normal conditions... but there is the hip... AND the fact that Lance rules at altitude. Should be interesting, either way.Does Landis have dirt skills?
As we all know, Lance does.
I saw Floyd race XC @ Seven Springs (PA) many moons ago. He wasn't famous then, but he sure made people notice him while he destroyed the field.Landis started in the dirt and was a badass.
No more. Lance has officially pulled out of the race. lthumbsdown:Going up to the Columbine Mine will be difficult for Lance.
