Bleak day for cycling and northtoak breaks 100!

Today, the Phonak cycling team has been rejected for a Pro Tour license for next year. While after seeing how the UCI has handled the Hamilton scandal and other issues lately, it does seem like it was inevitable.

While I can't for sure say that Tyler is innocent, I do believe that the UCI acted pretty immaturely in convicting Hamilton in the public arena and jerking around his team about licensing. UCI won't even disclose the official test results for review. The fact is, the team is serving as an example and the decision was made beforehand.

So I applaud the UCI for finding their example. I'm sure that Floyd Landis and the rest of the distraught Phonak team really appreciates it.

On a more positive note...

Today, the number of unique viewers of this log since 11/10 has been 100 people! How cool is that?
