No sign though of the 1000 pounds of Twinkies and Doritos.

Missy Giove lived her life astounding those around her.
The iconic mountain biker, who resided in Durango for more than a decade, won 14 national titles and was the world champion downhill racer in 1994. She screamed down slopes on the edge of control, landing in either an ambulance or on the podium.
Her persona — she dangled a dried piranha around her neck and tucked her dead dog's ashes in her bra when she raced — and talent made her mountain biking's highest-paid athlete, earning her well over $2 million.
Then last month, six years after she formally retired from racing, federal agents busted the 37-year-old and an accomplice with 400 pounds of marijuana and $1 million in cash.

400 pounds is not “for personal use.” Well, almost.
You never met my brother...

ooooK
nothing like heading straight downhill thru the trees and brush. looks like her ability to avoid large obstacles finally failed her.
Missy “The Missile”. Hadn’t heard that name in years. What a dumbass.
If she goes to jail she will have lots of girlfriends. I don’t think she will mind though.
Instead of peddling a bike she decided to try it with dope.
No sign though of the 1000 pounds of Twinkies and Doritos.
While out in the back woods mountain biking, she must have seen lots of spots and said “what a great place to grow some weed”.
She’s a handsome woman.
Performance enhancing drugs?

Sad to watch someone just go to pot.
parsy, who doesn’t bike
She should admit her guilt and turn over a new leaf. We’d all appreciate it if she did.
She does appear to require the extra protection afforded by Hate Crime legislation.
“She had numerous car wrecks and slight problems with authority,” said Giove’s longtime friend and former bike racer Craig Glaspell. “The fact she might be involved in some pretty heavy drug trafficking is the crazy thing. I mean, real crazy.”
I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again. POT MAKES YOU STUPID.
“Days after her arrest, her public defender, Tim Austin, alleged the drugs were planted in Giove’s possession, possibly by police.”
Poor Tim having to come up with this lame excuse, or if could be she slipped him some doobies, and he just wasn’t thinking strait.
Mountainbikers. Doing the jobs illegal aliens just won’t do anymore.
What a phugly phizz - GUILTY!!
