Taaramae season goes from bad to worse.
After Taaramae´s fall in Castilla y Leon, now it is clear - broken arm. 2-3 months away I guess.

Best scenario Dauphine Libere will be next race..worst no Tour. No way he can be top form at tour anyway.
This is like rule already for him..
good year..bad year..good year..bad year
There's still a chance he can go to the Vuelta, if Cofidis are invited.
They will, Moncoutié wants another KoM jersey + stage win. But with Moncoutié focusing in the Vuelta, losing Taaramäe for the Tour is a blow for the team.

Yayyy the nutter has been banned for 12 years, UCI life savers since 2012.
Ricco will thank them sooner or later and England will win the World Cup lol

12 years is a long ban, but ultimately he deserves it, all the chances he had.

Longer bans should be dished out more often |

Namely for Ricco, it´s not punishment but blessing. As he´d kill himself sooner or later, now he got a chance for living of good life, e.g as a barman

The new way Cav sprints now
Sky unveiled new Jaguar car so that's why the picture with Cav Car looks great too

They all accuse cav of holding on to cars, so he gets past them by riding on one |

Ricco could always sell drugs to make extra money, he kinda has experience with the topic
but yeh the ban is a life saver, but with how mad Ricco is, I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to make a comeback at the age of 40, afterall he has a screw loose

Exactly my thoughts...if he isn't dead by then (which I fear he might be) then he is mad enough to do it

Read a few interesting interview with Fuglsang and Kim Andersen. Both saying that there's a major difference between Shack and Leopard's way of working and that they are still trying to figure out how to get it to work properly.
Also, Kim Andersen, who's been a mentor to the Schlecks for many years, will not be a part of Shack's Tour de France team ... I'm guessing that's the first time ever that the Schlecks are not going to be under Andersen's guidance during the Tour.
Not sure what's happening over at Shack, but I'm guessing it's going to get ugly in a few months from now |

Shit, AndalucÃa again? I really hoped this year they were going to give a wildcard to a decent team instead of wasting a spot with them.

Couldn't agree more. Would like to see a team like Europcar in there |

Well, I would say it's because of their nation, but looking at last year's wildcards not including Caja Rural... I'd rather have Colombia Coldeportes here. |

Caja Rujal does have De la Fuente, which is the main reason they were chosen i guess.

The race starts in in Navarra/Nafarroa. Caja Rural is based there, so there's a link too.

Well, I was just supporting the idea of leaving Andalucia out, since last year Caja Rural, Spanish, didn't participate. |

For some strange reason (probably reading to fast), i completely missed the meaning, and thought you meant to leave Caja Rujal out for Colombia .
