Controversy at worktour

There's been a change of lead in the race for the YJA, with Josh taking the fluoro fleece in a shortened stage on Saturday. But his stage win and consequent donning of the YJA is under a cloud, with allegations of 'sales doping' coming from the other competitors. Towards the end of the stage, after The Minion had done a lot of the domestique work (going to get coffee and sushi, vacuuming the floor and buttering up an old couple with some sweet talk) the J-man (who was 'virtual leader' on the road after a bevy of sprint bonuses) suddenly attacked hard from the pack, made the transfusion and before you could say "I'll even chuck in some shoes" had crossed the line, fists pumping, and made the biggest comeback since Landis put a patch on his balls and duped the masses in 06. How long will that smirk be on his face? We may not have heard the last of this....

I think I spotted a YJA last summer when I was browsing at the Peddler. Some guy came in with his wife/girlfriend and proceeded to yell that since the Peddler was not a Trek Dealer they were wasting their time. I think he might have even been a Bennie (A North Jersey - Manhattan resident spending the weekend on the Jersey Shore).

Here in New Jersey you have to ask for extras. It is almost expected. "If I get this frame how about include the group?"

We get that too, but usually for Giant rather than Trek....

"Do you sell Giant?"

"Can you see a f@#*ing Giant?"

Morons....
