Floyd Landis and George Takei Cause Rukus at 2008 Tour of California Prologue

Sausalito, CA — Word on the streets today is that Team Rock Racing owner, Michael Ball had an altercation during the pre-prologue press conference with Floyd Landis and former Star Trek star George Takai. Ball was quoted as referring to the former star as “Space-Age Queer” and “Floyd’s new Toy Boy”. Some time later, Takei and Landis were reportedly seen smashing windows of one of Rock Racing’s controversial Cadillac Escalade team vehicles. A melee ensued between the pair and three Rock Racing riders that organizers had not allowed to start the race. Tensions were high but the scene quickly dispersed as Guarda Civil sirens could be heard in the near distance
