Tyler Farrar To Take Bicycle Tour of France
Maybe it's no surprise that Wenatchee's Tyler Farrar made the Garmin-Slipstream team for this year's Tour de France--he made the Tour last year, too.
But his performance in this year's Giro d'Italia has people calling him the next great American racer, and to our recollection, certainly the best to come out of Wenatchee. He may not be an Armstrong-y dominating force, but he's going to be there for his stages.
Seafair Runners Will Be Voting for the Next Transit Prop
Transit in Seattle has its challenges. (Yes, operator of the 554 who thought it would be a good idea on Friday to pull your half-full rig next to another bus at the Eastgate Park-and-Ride and then complain back and forth with the other driver for five minutes about your shifts getting changed due to school being out while Seattlest sweltered a few rows back in the ad-wrapped, ventilation-free, four-wheeled saucepan, yes, we are most certainly talking to YOU. You ran two stops signs later, but we digress.)
