That's when the UCI will commit suicide... all teams will quit the UCI circus and will want to ride the TDF, no matter which circuit or organisation it's in...
Just do it, Pat. |

someone typed too fast
Yeah, go on McQuaid, just go ahead and pretend that the whole sport doesn't need the Tour
Its like fifa turning round and saying that they don't wish for clubs to participate in the champions league. Ridiculous. |

Imagine how Astana must feel.....
They spend £$$$$$$$B) trying to build a new squad...
and the ASO turn around and tell them their out of the tour because of their history in drug scandals...
Kicking them out is not the answer...
Come on..who the f**k do the ASO think they are??? |

I completely agree on big teams like Man U, the Yankees, etc. generally they do the most whining too. rediculous.

Now the UCI are gonna take legal action so Contador ride!!
Pat McQuaid said it is a ''disgrace'' that Contador's not riding.
......Prepare for another political bust-up |

Prepare for Tour de France to get "relegated" to the French calendar, making it illegal for PT-teams (and thereby also Contador) to participate |
