Heyya all! I'm Marie. Now I do have time to introduce myself... I am an 22-year-old girl from Germany. I have just finished an education and am now working at a lawyer's office. It's a great job with great working-times so I do have enough time for my websites and my hobbies. Well, my hobbies are: my websites (http://www.fadingbeauty.de.am; http://www.myworldofdreams.de.am), taking part at any kinds of TCGs. I also love to writing - I started with fan fiction, but now I am working on two totally different stories of my own. I am a great fan of cycling - I do not know how popular this is in the USA, but in Europe it is quite popular - I do love riders like Lance Armstrong or - my favourite - Ivan Basso. Which means that I am also a fan of the denish team CSC. Besides, I am a great LOTR-Fan. My website FadingBeauty is about the human countries Rohan and Gondor. Furthermore I am a great StarWars-Fan and I love Harry Potter. My favourite music is 3 Doors Down, Anastacia, PhantomPlanet, a german group called Söhne Mannheims, Blue, RobbieWilliams and so on. My fabourite books are - of course - LOTR, Harry Potter, but I also love to read Stephen King, Wolfgang Hohlbein and John Grisham. If there's anything else you'd like to know just ask! Oh, and I am very sorry for my bad english, I know, it's not so good.

My husband was a cyclist when we were younger...Not anymore but we have great respect for those in the sport. I adore Lance Armstrong...He's faced so much over the years and he's such an inspiration to us all. I cried for joy when he wond his last race. He can retire with such grace.

Yes, he has definitly done his duty. When I heard that he would finish his career after Tour de France of this year, I was really sad. He was a great sportsman and gave new attractives to the sport...I will miss him definitly.
At the moment the tour of Germany is going on and I am very excited...great race up to this time! And right today an American Rider won - Levi Leipheimer from Gerolsteiner! *joy*
I admire every single man who takes part in a team of the pro-tour, because it's a very hard and intensive sport...what they are practising each day is unbelievable.
