Lodewick Busted Again!

Jonas Lodewick has once again been caught taking things a bit too seriously. Reportedly in San Diego for a "family event", Litvalk was spotted on the southern coast of California during a 6 hour training ride. Clearly in preparation for Tuesday's Rhonde San Raflanders, Lodewick looked strong. Of course, when questioned about the family event, Lodewick had no comment. When pressed further, Litvalk became visibly angry, shoving a photographer and nearly throwing a punch before riding off.

Boonen a scratch at San Raflanders

Shortly after news of Litvalk's secret miles was leaked, Tom Boonen cancelled his flight to the United States. Tom Boonen, a one-time friend of Lodewick has not been seen with Lodewick in some time. Many have claimed that the bromance has cooled in recent weeks. The Boonen camp has stated that Boonen's cancellation is due to a "tight schedule and fatigue," but nearly everyone close to the story knows better. Boonen feels Lodewick hold on the MWC crown is secure. With Hushvod out of the MWC points race, only worn down Italian Fredericco stands in Lodewick's way.
