It Trek dumps him too, then he'll have to get a job. Mario Cipollini
is a shoe salesman, but shoes were his number one passion even before
cycling. So Mario is doing what he wanted to do in the first place
before cycling interfered. What is Lance's real passion?

With Nike, Anheuser-Busch and now Trek dropping LA, will his monetary
income fall greatly? Will he be in dire straits?

Are they going to give back all the money they made off him? Maybe I
should get a refund on my TREK.

I've already asked that question as I bought a 1999 Trek 5200 (31,000+
miles), that I still ride amongst other bikes. I purchased it with
the idea that this is the bike that won the Tour de France. Now I
find out, that it didn't win the Tour. I would guess that if I asked
for a refund they would say, "It's not about the bike." So here I am,
stuck with bike that is a fraud. I also have some VCR tapes of so
called Lance wins in the Tour, what do I with those??

"It's not about the bike." -- Lance Armstrong.

Besides, those of us who are serious ride a Cervélo.
