For the last week i have had 6 cycling pros from the Colavita/Sutter Home team staying with me while they train here. Three from Argentina, one from Italy, and one from Cuba, and one from NY. The Italian was telling me how tough it was these days getting paid in dollars rather than Euros.

One of my cars is a 2006 Toyota Rav4 for which i paid $25,000. He told me that in Italy it would cost him 32,000 euros. It is the "large" SUV in Europe.

Argentina is a little different. There, things tend to cost more than here and so they are doing ok. I can only imagine that the cuban guy is like in disneyland every day compared to the crap his countrymen face.

BTW- Dirty-

If they get invited to ride in the Tour of Georgia, i am probably coming down there April 27. I would like to take you out for a beer (or did you quit- i cant remember) or a coke.
