Lemond and Trek
I'm a huge Lemond Fan (I finally got to shake his hand and pose for the pic above during the 2006 Interbike show). I'm also a big Trek fan (that was my very first "racing bike" back in the day. LANCE? Hmmm.... Not so much.
So, it kind of made my gut hurt a bit when I read this:
It feels a wee-bit like Trek is compromising on some core values to me... But that's just my opinion, and I don't have all the facts on the whole deal, eh?
Anyway, I did get a chuckle out of some of the letters on VN.com:
primarily the one about "LT training" near the bottom! ;-)

I had my first LeMond encounter in 2006, too (at the Pan-Mass Challenge) and like you, I'm a big fan. It's hard for me to reconcile the Greg I met with the one we see portrayed in the press. We'll probably never know all the facts, so I'll just have to agree that it's a sad day.
And yeah, I like that letter, too, and not just 'cause Chris is my coach :-)!

yeah, sad day indeed...
Cool quote from your coach/McCarthy!
