Well, sort of. He's going to do a 3-point competition against an NBA player (Deron Williams) and then face Williams in a TT on the bike!

    Not such a bad way of promoting the race, actually. It's sure to make the local newscast "duck on a skateboard" final segment.

    Unless an actual duck-on-skateboard event occurs on the same day. Then Floyd has no chance.

    He could line up a series of these challenges to help him pay off his legal bills. Maybe against Mike Tyson before his next race? A quick head to head time trial followed by 3 rounds.

    I'm sure there're a few people who'd pay to watch!

    It is certainly a rather random thing.

    My money's on Floyd - he'll have a really bad day, crack totally, spend the night knocking back whiskey & beer, then go like stink next day & win the race !
    Oh - think he did that already ?
    My knees hurt !
