Contador Receives His Weight in Honey
Read the entire article here ...
"PENALVER, Spain - Champion cyclist Alberto Contador has
been awarded the peculiar honour of receiving his weight in honey, a
delicacy of the Spanish town of Penalver.
Contador, along with his bike, were weighed on a scale set
up in the town square on Saturday. The total was multiplied by six for
the Spanish rider's major stage wins (three at the Tour de France, two
at the Giro d'Italia, and one at the Spanish Vuelta) for a total of 130
kilograms of honey.
Spain football coach Vicente Del Bosque received the honour last year that is given to promote the local product.
Contador is awaiting the verdict of the Court of
Arbitration for Sport on his alleged use of performance-enhancing drugs
in the 2010 Tour."
