O.D ed. 4

Written by Luveaucek at 05:07 5/11-2012

  Basking in the moonlight, I sat overlooking the Mediterranean sea from Vinaròs wondering if I could see Damario's stomping grounds on the Balearic Islands. I could not, but I quickly realized I haven't released anything to the press in over an entire season, and there have been a couple of noteworthy benchmarks achieved recently.
  
  Nikanor Somov, and the team, recovered nicely enough, and early this season he managed to secure the bottom spot of the youth podium during Tweedaagse van Antwerpen. Happily, we find this quite a success for a broken rider of superstar potential.
  
  Andrej Pandula was finally cleared of his association with Rustgold, and the subsequent allegations surrounding his previous performance in Orel-Kursk, 11 seasons ago, were rescinded as we happily received our second classic trophy.
  
  The former World Champion, Damario Barba, currently sits 34th in the OCM, and he's on fire thus far this season; posting 6/7 top 9 finishes, only Vejle-København proved to be a bit too much for him. His most recent, easy, Top Division victory came during London - Ipswich where he recorded the teams 150th result, which simultaneously catapulted Luveaucek into 38th on the All-Time OCM leader boards, and quietly gliding past Medvedi into the top Czech team ever position.
  
  As most Luveaucek fans know; tour season is at hand, rapidly approaching, and on the horizon again for the team. Wajeeh Essam has stood his ground with the Top riders during this seasons Vuelta, thus far, and is poised to potentially turn some heads during the final minutes, again. The Essex tour will begin within the week, and it could potentially launch Damario further exploding into the top of the OCM echelon, and Malina is now rested and ready to prepare for his assault of the Nederlandse tour this season.
  
  Yet, despite all this exciting news and these prosperous times, Wryen, the ever paranoid zealot he is, continually warns me of the "reality of the roads", and the "downfalls of success", and "other" randomness. I don't get it.
