G. Jackson On The Road

My new toy. FERRAROLI was a famous Swiss frame builder in 80s / 90s. 

I remember visiting his workshop with my dad & Jean-Marie Grezet who just retired from road cycling and jumped in MTB. Ferraroli’s workshop was in La Chaux-de-Fonds. Tubes everywhere. One thing I will never forget the painting room. It was the 90s, the color where so fluo and fresh... I couldn’t find a frame “Jackson Pollock style”. I keep looking.

I had this song in mind all day long. How could it be different ? I wasn’t there to bungy jumping, as in the song of Alain Bashung, but to ride my bike. We’ve been there six months ago, visiting on a road trip. I still remember being really upset not to have take my bike with me. Anyway, six month later, I was back on the exact same roads. With my bike and my lovely girlfriend who agreed to follow me all day. She’s the one who took the pictures. A day to remember.

You can do whatever you want, when it comes to doping Team Sky is always the black Sheep. If it's not to everyone, it is a fact for all the people interested by every kind of sports and for who cycling is equal to Tour de France. And also for all the people interested in cycling but only for the show and not sport. These people are very active on the internet and particularly in the comment parts at the end of the articles. Last episode is when they announced blood samples of the Tour will be tested to AICAR. On Cyclingnews.com, third comment is "Bad news for Sky". This is why I always refuse to participate in this kind of debate. You can't have a conversation with someone who is so hateful. 

Doping is more than a team or a person. It's a problem that has to be solved by the athlete, teams, UCI, government, WADA and public ALTOGETHER.
