Back in April, I blogged about Trek and Greg LeMond ending their business relationship with a lawsuit and counter-suit, both alleging poor sales, poor performance, and breach of contract.  Thanks to the The Adventure Blog via BicycleRetailer.com, I've learned that this case recently took a turn towards the bizarre:

In an odd twist, an inmate at a federal prison in Williamsburg, South Carolina filed a motion to intervene in the lawsuit in July, alleging that he and other inmates produce bikes for LeMond under the Federal Prison Industry Unicor Program for 12 cents an hour, a violation of minimum wage laws. The inmate also claimed LeMond bicycle are shipped to Iranian troops for training purposes, violating the “Training with Enemy” Act.

Violating federal labor laws?  Treason?  Yes, it seems Trek and LeMond have managed to get themselves in a real pinch!  This will, no doubt, drag the case out for quite some time.  Plus, who knows what other plaintiffs may come out of the woodwork to get involved in this case.  Next thing you'll know, Iran will file for lost ability to perform militarily. :)
