So I didn't realize I was taking a break from cycling. I was still checking up on the news every once in a while. I recorded the Giro and the Tour of California, though I didn't watch much of either. I just didn't have the usual enthusiasm for the sport, but I still didn't think it was a break. Though now that I've spotted Andy riding well on a climb and felt the thrill of that, yeah, I was on a break. I have a Schleck problem and despite the Sagans and Lottos and Garmins, they're still not Schlecks. And now Frank's ban is almost over, Andy's riding better, and even though Cancellara abandoned his Leopards this Tour, Andy. Riding well. Makes me happy.
