Nice hair Ray….
What Cat. is Miguel Morras riding in?
I think Senor Morras is in Brazil for the foreseeable future. I hear his employer has assigned him there for the time being. We may not see him race in NYC this season.

Yes – have you noticed my hair trim? I did get it cut actually a few inches.
Aslo – Miguel will be back for a few weeks in March and a couple or weeks in April. He is in Brazil till March – then in Ft. Lauderdale then to Chile till I think July. Then back in NY to race here with us for the balance of the season.
As for the race -we are starting to scout out locations.
not as funny as adler
Hey, Ray. Nice work. How’s Tom B. doing? Wish him well for me.
I wish the “not as funny as adler” guy would go away.
Good luck Champion, kit looks good, so does the roster.
heh heh heh. Cool team.
I want to be on the tour of south china sea team next year. just for the podium chicks
just so no one gets surprised when one of them gets nailed later in the season, papp dopes, somerville dopes, sasso dopes, pineda dopes. and not a one of them is even pro…so sad so sad…
you no – it is so sad that people post things without their names. I run a legit clean team. Perhaps you are doping Mr. No Name! What are you to chicken? I bet you are loser. Pineda is a good kid – he was pro and to my knowledge never doped. The same goes for the other guys. Two years ago someone else said I was probably doping cause I was in a break with Pollo a couple of times and placed. I mean, common GET REAL.
Next time be less of a coward, use your real name and tell me to my face that my guys dope. And then right there I will ask them to pee in a cup for you to analzye. Maybe you can drink it since it seems that you are an expert and identifying those that are doing illegal/banned substances from sports.
Thanks again loser!
grammar error- no = KNOW. My apologies as I was very frustrated when I posted my response to the fool/loser that is just to afraid to post his name.

Hey stop the cat flight in here and point your wheel to the line!!!
Ray-I see you have a women’s team. Are you looking for any more riders? I am a Cat.1 and a new mom determined to race my bike once again.
Dude! You are an idiot, accusing people of doping! You must have alot of time on your hand… Just point your wheel to the line!
Any team that starts doing seams to get accused of being doppers by people who have no face.
or maybe just teams with 4 people closely associated to doping/dopers….
didn’t papp smear the field at mengoni a few years ago?
papp has been slagging off amateurs for years, but no D3 team will pick him up b/c every pro DS knows he’s doped to the gills. This is common knowledge amongst east coast pros.
so where is papp, anyway? i thought he was riding for you guys …
