[Cyclelicious] New comment on Frankie Andreu and Rock Racing.

bikesgonewild has left a new comment on your post "Frankie Andreu and Rock Racing":

...tough call...i always felt like frankie outed himself to regain validity after the 'lance epo accusations' kinda backfired on he & his wife...kind of a "i can prove lance did cuz, ah well, see, i did too"...

...i found it much easier to rewarm up to someone like bjarne riis, a man who's admissions offered him nothing to gain but personal piece of mind (& a lotta industry flack)...

...that being said, andreu as 'team director' had his hands tied by micheal ball, a man who having put a very successful clothing biz together, assumes his business model will work in bicycle racing...who's to say it wouldn't but obviously not w/ a personality like frankie's (or a lot of cycling fans)...

...andreu was a good team player as a rider but his career has been nothing short of tumultuous since...he's not a favorite of mine but i wish him good luck...
