sicklist: Mollema has mono

*sigh

Came this close to keeping him, then thought, “Nah, what if he gets mono?”

Let’s hope he has a heavy but quick variant.

And secondary to that, my poor VDS team….

It cause me to wonder whether the overtraining and travel compromises their immune systems to some degree as is alleged with marathoners. All that close contact in the main peloton could also be the suspect for healthy people getting hit by things also attracted to college/university students. Then again, it could be biological weapons!

Vemelfoort sprinter of Rabo CT has also Pfeifer. Marc de Maar (Rabo) is under investigation

From what I’ve learned in my various readings on the PdC. I would have expected Mollema to be on Drew’s VDS team. That doesn’t seem to be the case.

Gesink won’t ride the Fleche Wallone because he has a knee injury. He has a small crack in the tendon of the large thigh muscle in the right knee. His participation in L-B-L is unsure.
