That's short for Josephine, isn't it ? Not common, but not peculiar either. In French it's old fashioned. |

You see it's actually the other way round. You Spanish and Portuguese people give boys girl names.  |

Not very happy though as I doubt he'll find his old self again at BMC

Phonak 2.0 . No wonder.
edit : I don't think I've read about it here, but Rémi Pauriol and Geoffroy Lequatre have both officially retired.

Will Walker retires from Synergy-Baku. Recurring heart problems forced him into retirement. Apparently, his heart reached a rate of 270BPM at the Aus. road race which was the deciding factor.

That's nice, though I'd rather have seen someone like Lindeman, I guess.
