Cyclists should not sign the UCI’s anti-doping charter

I am glad that I am not a professional cyclist right now. The sport has a rediculous amount of negative publicity heaped upon it on an annual basis because there are not only a (seemingly) large number of cheaters in the sport, but the governing body that is supposed to catch the cheaters is either [...]

Bike activists create their own bike lanes

Bicycle activists in Toronto are fed up with the city government. The city has spent less than half of the money earmarked for putting in bicycle lanes, and is 2 years behind schedule.

Rather than writing on different news notes that I have noticed from over the weekend, I thought (for the sake of brevity) that I’d just link to the interesting articles. Saturday evening, I went to the RIT at Bentley hockey game. RIT lost by one point, 7-6. There were probably about 8 or 9 RIT [...]

The doping case against Floyd Landis just got weaker…

It seems that as far as doping labs go, they can never seem to get anything right. It was not too long ago that an 7 year old anonymous blood sample that had no control samples (since the control samples had been previously tested came back negative) seemingly proved Lance Armstrong was a doper.
