Italian cyclist Maurizio Biondo is suspended after he tested positive for EPO in an out-of-competition control on August 12, 2009.
This being right after Post Danmark Rundt. Race director Jesper Worre (biggest idiot in danish cycling), says; "we have to assume he wasn't on anything during Post Danmark Rundt as he was tested".

no..I would not take Contador..better choice will be missed TdF..they aint building that kind of team.
Anyway i am getting every day more and more angry about TdF IMO..
Friends..cycling is not just TdF!
Indeed, I would rather Team Sky not compete in the Tour and try for the classics and Giro / Vuelta than sign Contador! Anyway its a moot point, as Contador will probably go to Garmin or Caisse (probably Garmin), and I'll be forced to shake my head in dismay and tut loudly at how Garmin's much vaunted clean philosophy is being abandoned in favour of actually winning things!

Worlds 2012 will either be in Maastricht or Genoa. Most probably Maastricht. Florence wants the 2013 worlds. The italians seem to think they own it.
Also, The Tour Down Under organizers promised a much harder route for 2009 so that the stages wouldn't all end in bunch sprints. Every stage ended in a bunch sprint anyway. So they promised a hellish route, the hardest they could find.
Now they've announced it. It's the same route as 2009.

More on the worlds, it's going to be Sunday-Sunday again re-introducing Junior races.
It all starts on the Sunday with a amateur team time trial.

Hopes that Sweden can send a team. TTT is a discipline that Swedes have been great in before. But I think that a Swedish professional TTT team with Gustav Larsson, Lövkvist and F Ericsson would be great.

It'll be for the top 20 under-23 teams (clubs, not national teams) in the world to each send a team. No one else

Have anybody a clue what teams that are in the TTT "spot" right now? I know that there are some years left.

Skil-Shimano has given up on the PT license and has instead applied for a renewal of their Pro Continental license.

He was, but was eventually cleared by the Spanish authorities.
