That Evans would have won the Tour, but only with half a minute. At least that how's I interprete it. |

I said before Contador won the tour that i wasn't happy with Brunyeel. I just hope that Tom and Levi don't go to a European team (wishfull thinking). As for John Devine I think he could do well at a team like Slipstream. Hincapie paid his dues now i have no problem with him going wichever way he pleases.
Despte the bad news of Discovery Folding this does leave an open spot in the Pro Tour. Even more chance for Slipstream to get in. 
All about slipstream baby.
As for Eating at Chipotle? I have never seena chipotle in all my years on the west coast. Must be an Eastcaost thing.
Agritubel and Barloworld are much closer to becoming ProTour teams than Slipstream though, remember this is a European sport 
I hope Agritubel and Barloworld become ProTour teams, Astana won't be one next year, so with Discovery folding this leaves two spots open. |

Slipstream has been in talks with the UCI about it, but they have also said they're not ready to become a PT-team before 2009 or 2010. But now there's a chance, they might take it. I don't think they will, though. They will be invited to TdF, make a good figure there and become a PT-team in 2010 when the cycle sport collapes because of T-Nobile's and Milram's exit |

I admire Barloworld for that ..what they are doing..dont need to rush. All those big money and fast built teams seems so unnatural. Slipstream wach out...
So with rider ..after tour I can say poor Contador..to early. Natural development has he's own rules.
I realy hope that two german pro teams will continou..this is best for cycling. |

Of course Levi could beat Cadel but about Chipotle... Could they be under a different name? I have talked with a few people and none of them have heard of CHipotle. |

I'm a southern cali guy, its all over here. Their motto is "food with integrity". They also environmentally awesome. I dig that being the hippie that i am.
Tasty burritos. Americanized mexican food of course though. But very clean upscalish burritos. |

According to their website the closest Chipotle is in San Francisco or Sacramento though it is probably easier to get into SF than struggle through Sac traffic. SF is a little out of my way as far as how far im willing to travel for food |

Yeah chipotle is part of this rising commercial chain which specializes in quality eating. Think jamba juice like. Its not special really...but its better than a burger king ya know?
One chain i like is panera.

I might invest some money in it as well. |
