He looks like Kid Rock's evil twin, so starting up a doobage shop makes sense.

"According to a press release obtained by Cyclingnews, Landis plans to specialize in products containing cannabis oil sourced from high altitude growers using an industry leading, pharmacy grade CO2 extraction process."

Speaking from experience no doubt...

Good Luck to Floyd!

He could very well end up making a lot of money on this endeavor.

If ever in CO I'll try some.

[cdn_bacon]

there's certainly money in it.

good for him.

He sells a bubble gum called "the flying dutchman," and a weed called "high class mountain".

Is he using a "Fund Me" account to raise capital?

I wonder how much of the $50 I lent him during his town hall meeting is being used as "seed" money

Pun f'ing intended

loser (not because of the dope thing....but because he stole money from me)

Under the terms of his settlement, you will be repaid:

In August 2012, after months of closed-door negotiations, Landis entered a deferred prosecution agreement in a San Diego federal court that compelled him to repay donors of the Floyd Fairness Fund.

The deferred prosecution agreement was for three years, with his exposure to criminal charges erased if he complied with its terms. He did, and the case was quietly dismissed by U.S. Magistrate Judge Jan M. Adler on Friday.

Landis, though, must continue repaying donors, however long it takes

According to court records, Landis has paid just $10,000 of the original $478,354 in restitution.

I was in Leadville earlier this month and heard about his plans to make cannabis infused products. He's a dork, but the money is there. I was amazed (and saddened) by the number of marijuana related businesses that I saw in Colorado.

There is a TON of money being made in the CO pot industry. Almost $1 billion in sales in 2015 with $135 in tax revenues and other fees. The state is not going to give that up.

How do you feel driving by local bars and liquor stores? Especially since they may be selling the booze that enables a road death nearby, either another driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian? That happens a lot, you know. Were quickly approaching the most deadly holiday weekend on America's roads, July 4. Happy cycling! Watch out for those stoners.

Edit: btw, just read the other day that, after a few years of legal weed in Co., traffic accidents are not up, and teenage use is maybe a tad down.

Although I don't consider it my "news" outlet of choice , CNN had a great documentary on this topic specific to Colorado and how they're managing $1B that is STILL recognized as a crime "federally" speaking
