It's not the fact that Missy Giove (object of everyone's early 90's obsession) was caught with marijuana. Don't all extreme sports super stars compete with a little weed on them for good luck? No, it's that she was caught with 400 pounds of it that boggles the mind. (Via VeloNews) "Former world downhill champion Melissa “Missy” Giove and two alleged co-conspirators were arrested in New York Tuesday, charged with plans to distribute some 400 pounds of marijuana."
"Giove, also known as "The Missile," earned a total of 14 NORBA national downhill titles, 11 UCI World Cup victories, two overall World Cup titles and the world championship in 1994."
Never missing an opportunity for laughs, DEA agent John Gilbride dropped this little zinger, “drug trafficking can lead you downhill fast." Rimshot!
It's unfortunate that Missy may be spending the foreseeable future behind bars because she kicks so much ass.
I'll choose to think of her thusly, or like this, or this, or any of these, ok and sometimes like this.

"object of everyone's early 90's obsession". Maybe. But at least one old roadbike rider has never heard of her. I feel old and straight.
