The hockey player George Laraque challenged cyclest Lex Albrecht in a race up Mont Royal in Montreal...


Retired hockey player, he retired in 2010. Man, good on him for getting up that hill, it's reasonably steep, and he's a giant - I think 6'4" and just shy of 300lbs when he played... 275 or something.

Good thing the hospital visit ended with smiles.

Looks like a lot of happy drivers being held up by this little stunt... :rolleyes:

They ended up calling an ambulance?? Wow!! Wonder if he was out of shape or what. He's got a belly going on in those photos.

As expected Georges got his ass handed to him by Lex, was planning to be there but a bout of food poisoning the day before left me under the weather.
