It seems with the clout of Lance Armstrong gone, his long-time sponsorship with Trek has also left team Astana. It's cool to see that in its place my favorite bike company — Specialized will be sponsoring Astana. It will be interesting to see how many other ProTour teams are Specialized for the 2010 season. Specialized Joins [...] Ah… and the 2009 NFL regular season has begun.Sports are truly back! Part of our Sunday football rituals included watching the Fox pre-game show — Fox NFL Sunday featuring funny in-studio banter between Curt Menefee, Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, Jimmy Johnson and Michael Strahan. They've got a good variety of football experience and it's [...] It'd be great to see another pro cycling stage race happening in the United States in 2011 as a and Lance Armstrong is the right guy to get some of these races to happen. For me personally, it be even better if races like this would help show promotors cycling has a growing domestic fan [...] Here's a twitter-like post tonight before crashing for the evening. (Up early for the 2009 Tri-Cyclists Criterium) Congrats to Lance Armstrong winning the 2009 Leadville 100 — a record winning time on a flat rear tire! Lance Armstrong Wins Leadville 100 addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.keefermadness.com%2F2009%2F08%2F15%2Flance-armstrong-wins-leadville-100%2F'; There's all kinds of ways Americans waste money — but the federal government wastes dollars on a whole other scale. As I'm sitting here with ESPN, I'm realizing there's a wonderfully simple way to cut some cash every single weekend. Every single sporting event seems to have some branch of the military presenting the colors. [...] So I already said on Sunday that I thoroughly enjoyed the Tour de France here in 2009. Part of it was some real quality and clean racing. Part of it was the return of Astana to the Tour. A big part of it was pulling for some quality American racers — Levi Leipheimer, George Hincapie [...] Ideas for posts for Keefer Madness pop up at the weirdest times. I've been mulling doing something like this for the past couple days, as I'm riding down the road in the saddle — commuting, training, etc. There are so many sad stories and annoyances as a cyclist, but man, there are a ton of great [...] Congrats to Contador, Armstrong and the rest of the Astana crew for an amazing and exciting Tour de France. I'm sure they're more than ready to ride into Paris. I was glued to the Tour this year unlike any Tour of the past and am kind of sad it's already wrapping up. It really flew [...] It's official. Like I said earlier, I wish it were another American company, but kudos to Radio Shack for sponsoring a pro American team. Look forward to see them next season. RadioShack Partners With Seven-Time Tour de France Winner Lance Armstrong to Form New Cycling Team in 2010 Lance on Radio Shack Sponsorship addthis_url [...] So I'll be behind any Lance Armstrong / Johan Bruyneel professional squad, but Radio Shack as the main sponsor? Really? I really hope this turns out to be false. They should go the Columbia HTC route and get backed by Nike and Apple. But that's just my wishful thinking. Regardless, it's great to see another [...] |
