...or "Dreaming of a White Christmas."  

In this podcast

Intro music by Full Propulsion

Tomeke, Tomeke, Tomeke!

Tom Boonen, Belgium's beloved bad boy of bike racing finally remembers having used cocaine without someone mysteriously slipping it in his drink or something like that.

Austral Wheelrace

The Australian cycling season is well underway, and the magic of the internets has us learning about ancient traditions such as the Austral Wheelrace, a 112-year old event, which is the oldest track event in the world.

Astana are soo camp!

As mentioned in the newsflash below, Astana has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons lately and here's a photo of them in Pisa, at one of their pre-season get togethers, by way of the Twisted Spoke blog:  http://walshworld.wordpress.com/2009/12/11/astana-and-the-leaning-tower-of-pisa-a-training-camp-metaphor/

San Luis race

Ever on the lookout, Hans spotted an article about Liquigas returning to the Tour de San Luis, but here's a link for Rasumussen, also slated to ride it with the Miche team:  http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/2010-tour-de-san-luis-roster-announced

Next time!

In upcoming podcasts we'll discuss some other sporting events on the horizon, such as the NFL's Superbowl and FIFA World Cup.

Bicicleteiros on Twitter

Bicicleteiros is now on Twitter!  http://twitter.com/bicicleteiros  See the little Twitter widget on the right hand side of the screen? Outro music borrowed without permission.  We'll edit it out if asked.  

Not in this podcast

7 unique DNA fingerprints show up on some discarded medical equipment and it has Le Monde quoting French gendarmerie as saying Team Astana may have committed une infraction pénale, meaning they could've committed a crime according to French law.  Ah, doping, the gift that keeps on giving...

Read the original Le Monde report in French: http://www.lemonde.fr/sport/article/2009/12/23/astana-aurait-commis-une-infraction-penale-pendant-le-tour-2009_1284426_3242.html

...or this fairly accurate regurgitating of the Le Monde article in English: http://www.morethanthegames.co.uk/cycling/237899-armstrong-and-contadors-team-astana-trouble-over-tour-de-france-drip-bags

...and in Olympic news, Vancouver is ready to party!! http://www.morethanthegames.co.uk/winter-sports/177777-olympic-ecstasy-not-way-you-think

This was recorded as a "voice memo" on my fancy new iPhone, but I couldn't figure out how to get the file off of it.  Lot of good the high tech does, if it doesn't work automatically or in a logical, user-friendly way (I'm thinking of my previous iRiver and iPod).  Eventually, I took the time too Google how to do it.  Done.

More links coming soon!
