History made as Friere wins again

Oscar Friere won his third world championship on Sunday in Verona, Italy. Nobody has won 3 world championships since Eddy "The Cannibal" Merckx completed his three in 1974. Davide Rebellin was a favorite to win because of his amazing series of wins in the spring. He didn't think he would be selected for the Italian national team, so he changed nationalities to Argentina, but because he didn't get the papers in soon enough, he still couldn't be there. (Just a little funny but sad news.)

Lance is probably just relaxing at home or jumping into the "Dead Man's Hole" he has at home to check for vital signs, as he explains in his second book, "Every Second Counts".
