The Simpsons Movie site just released a way to make avatars of yourself. I found a better use for it and that is to make avatars of some of the top Tour de France contenders. I am also including other notable cycling related folks to spice it up. Here is the list: Levi Leipheimer Alexandre [...]
Mario Cipollini is very passionate about bikes. On a training ride during the Domina Vacanze days he is informed that his home has been broken into and the bikes taken. Just as he rides a motor home of gypsies passes by with Mario’s beloved bikes haging off the back. Mario and his trainign partner follow [...]
Odd invention for downhill adrenaline junkies. It would be much like a street luge but look more embarrassing.

That Head On commercial has already acheived cult status, now comes the spoofs. What better combo than Floyd Landis and the Head On product?
Greg Lemond has no shortage of ego. Whether he is sending out a hasty plea to Landis to tell the truth about doping before all the facts are clear or constantly dissing Armstrong.
