LPR excluded, so Diluca does not defend.

Am I the only one that laughs everytime I see the High Road listed as an American team?  So funny.

Yes, especially when I picture their jersey
Can't they just be done with it and put this smack dab on the front of it? Would anyone be against this?

Same as Le Tour
plus five more: Landbouwkrediet, Topsport, Skil, Collstrop, and Tinkoff.

So my theory is, the Tour teams are in for all ASO races (unless they decline), and in certain cases like the Classics where they can add a few, they add a few. So those contracts they signed with the Tour teams last week should cover the whole slate of races.

From the ProConti
Not a single Spanish team, one Italian, Tinkoff and one Italian-racing-under-a-different-flag, Barloworld.

And not even an Austrian team, even though Austria was one of the rebel 7 who voted against big Pat.

italians and spaniards
don't get much respect on the cobbles, do they?

by Chris Fontecchio on Mar 25, 2008 4:22 PM EDT up reply actions  

for good reason
The only Spaniard I ever saw that was good on the cobbles is Flecha.

A frozen 'cross ride from this last weekend. As you may be aware we have had siberian conditions here in the UK with a low of -14 degrees centigrade here on saturday morning. It was a beautiful sunny morning so i layered up and set off for a snowy 'cross ride along a roman road. I checked the thermometer when i got back to find it had been -10 throughout the ride! I had a lot of fun though and the views were spectacular.
