This raises some questions:
1. How did Euskaltel got their license if they are not even able to pay the running costs of their team busses?
2. Why do Euskaltel bosses think that their team is still "cool" after the transfer they did?
3. Why should Katusha get a license now? They didn't meet the requirements. One less WT team does not change that.
4. Why should UCI give a PCT license to Euskaltel after this action?
5. What more is needed to get rid of the UCI and its corrupt management?
It seems as if Kenny Van Hummel had his legs amputated after a crash and is now revalidating/training to get back in shape for the start of the season:

Jesus christ ShortsNL you scared the crap out of me
Meanwhile, the Tour de Romandie route was presented. We're back to mountainous routes, thank goodness.

"I love him, I think he's great. He's transformed the sport in so many ways. Every person in cycling has benefitted from Lance Armstrong, perhaps not financially but in some sense" - Bradley Wiggins on Lance Armstrong
Sad news: Iñaki Lejarreta, top spanish mountain biker (former junior World Champion) has been killed in a training accident where he was struck by a car
So Predictable...
Anyway, good to see cycling becoming more popular in the Uk as Cav also won last year
I'm also very pleased that The Tour is starting in my backyard in 2014

How does Bradley Wiggins win Sports Personality of the year.
Sure, he's got a huge personality, but its not really all the positive, charming or humorous or anything like that.
I'd have prefered Thomas, if he was eligible, although he didn't win anything so he has no personality.....
Thomas couldn't even win the Welsh Sports Personality of the Year either, that went to a Tae -Kwan-Do athlete who just happens to come from the same town as me

Guessing you dont like Wiggins
And what you say his personality isnt, is pretty much how he comes across to the general British public. There were 1.6 million votes, and Wiggins got 30% of them. Besides SPOTY is more about sporting achievement than personality, despite the name.
Thomas did win Olympic gold, and came 3rd in the Welsh version. But a few people won two Olympic golds and didnt make the shortlist, so he will never have been in contention.
