Many cyclists avoid bamberg’s bike parking garage

admin

How do you explain to a stranger where to find the bicycle parking garage in bamberg?? Quite simple: where there is no tree without a bunch of bicycles around it; where every street pole is hidden behind a mess of handlebars, saddles and pedals – exactly there you can also do the complete opposite: park lonely. In bamberg's first and only "bike house behind the train station.

It cost 50 cents to lift a bike onto one of the 330 buckets provided for this purpose. But few do it. Even worse: bamberg's bahnhof cyclists seem to make a sport out of parking in front of, next to, and near the bike house – everything but in it.

Doping expert: Armstrong case will have no consequences

Shortly after 1 p.M., fritz sorgel looks at his cell phone at the institute for biochemical and pharmaceutical research in heroldsberg near nurnberg and laughs out loud. Sorgel is one of the most renowned german doping experts. He has just read the statement by pat mcquaid, head of the world cycling federation. "Lance armstrong has no place in cycling. Something like this must never happen again, reports a news site. Sorgel shakes his head.

The world cycling federation UCI turns 180 degrees: armstrong loses all titles, is banned for life. Didn’t you expect this?
Fritz sorgel: the transformation of pat mcquaid is amazing. This is real satire, which can not be met other than by cynicism. But what would have been the alternative? Turning a blind eye? Then cycling would also have been finished as an organization. The armstrong story has shown that the UCI has at least passively supported him by dragging its feet.
