Hi All,
Some of you may be expecting Lord Voldemort to die at the end of
Book Seven (i.e. in 1997 / 1998), but I have it on good authority
that by 2003 he is a professional cyclist on the US Postal Service
team. Yes, that's right; Tom Riddle helped Lance Armstrong to his
fifth consecutive Tour de France victory. Perhaps this explains why
Lance doesn't test positive for banned substances, they should
instead test for illegal jinxes.
Here's the authoritative quote (glossary: Dura-Ace is Shimano's top
of the line group-set, i.e. brakes, gears, crank etc).
"The boys in Blue on the U.S. Postal Services team have been
rolling '04 Dura-Ace for a good bit of the season already, which
means it gets the all-important approval of you-know-who."
(`Bicycling', USA September edition, p. 58).
Cheers,
Dumbledad.
