Well doesn't Lance Armstrong do those wretched ads for Subaru or someother motor vehicle manufacturer? That's really unforgiveable for a cyclist methinks. Very bad form indeed. Of course there's a tradition of motorcar and oil companies using cycling to promote their poisons but it still rubs me the wrong way. Only Peugeot could get away with it since they made cars and bikes. And pepper grinders. Lance, however, should stick with razor blades or something.
