Default Landis is racing the Cohutta 100 on Saturday

Last I heard he was in bad shape and carrying some extra weight. I don't expect much from him.

Altitude profile. Looks brutal.

I'm being serious here. I saw pics of Landis last fall and he was sickly thin. Like, Stage 20 of TdF thin. So I don't know what the story is there that according you guys he's apparently fat again?

There was a shot of him leaning against the Rock Racing trailer at ToC and he didn't look fat. Although, by competitive racing standards...I dunno.

Well, everyone's definition of fat in the cycling community is ridiculous really, but before anyone jumps on me, I get it, I get it (as to the context) so no need to lecture me there.

But, these pics were from an event last fall and he was sickly thin. In cycling terms, he was at the edge or whatever they call it. Can't remember what the term was from LA's Bible, but you catch my drift I'm sure (at least YOU and confusedfan do I'm sure, anyway ).

God, what was the term. It's going to drive me nuts now but I'm too lazy to go find the stupid book.

He stopped training and put on twenty pounds. He's not fat but an extra twenty pounds kills the power to weight ratio of a 150 pound rider.

He undoubtedly did some training in the last two months.
