LOL Anto took a holiday!!!

Bunnyhopper · 15-02-2009 08:09PM

I have a vision of some nine-year-old skanger in a shell suit trying to pop wheelies on it.

But more seriously, that's really cr*ppy for Armstrong.

E@gle. · 15-02-2009 08:28PM

Hey Lance,

Can you beat Blorg up Glandon?

Tiny can.

Great pic

:D:D Absolutely class. Legend:D

Just saw full-face-helmet-boy in St. James Hospital.

I think the horse has bolted on recovering the bike - looks like he's fenced the TT bike already for a black beater bike and a new hi-vis gilet. Either that or he's sanded down the areo sections to make it race legal....

This could be a hoax but one of LA's twitter followers claims to have found it!

Think it's possibly a chump looking for money, here's a comment under the team pic Lance put up by the same lad..

hi team, im a big fan of lance armstrong and the astana team just to let the team and all the astana fans ou there i have recover lance bike and will turn it over to the sacramento police station on 2/18 first thing in the morning it cost me 1500 dollar t

Although if he's brining it to the police. Probably the lad who stole it in the first place because he knew he couldn't sell it

blorg · 19-02-2009 02:12PM

Well it has been recovered and apparently was a "local resident" (presumably not the thief) that brought it to the police.

Leeway5555 · 19-02-2009 04:28PM

Finally, one bike out of the millions stolen has been recovered :P

Ghost Rider · 19-02-2009 04:30PM

I bet that guy on Parnell Street had something to do with it.

1. CAn you confirm the first picture is part of the saddle and not some speed adaption applied to his **erm*** to make him faster. Its looks aerodynamic

2.Lets ask the eurosport team tonight... they were saying it all felt like a publicity stunt......

As if Lance needs more publicity. Isn't he officially bigger than Jesus now, or the Beatles, or both?
