This is very small rumours so dont rip my head off, Wiggins is possibly going to T-Mobile, remember this is very early and is definatly not something to go OMG about.
that is entirley possible, we all know how Wiggins feels about doping, and with their strict anti-doping things (which to be honest haven't worked really well, but...) it seems like the team most likley
it is definate he will leave Cofidis as he has been saying how angry he was with Moreni and the team manager for how everything has been handled.

They are a bit limited in that department, but I cant see Leipheimer wanting to support Cadel in the TDF, can the team really take 3 leaders (McEwan being the other)? |

Leipheimer is quite ambition rider. Only Crue option :that they have now more option in the mountains are possible way . Some Disco and Leipheimer talks:
1. After signing Basso...Leipheimer was clearly dissapointed. But he sayd it's ok..I can be nr.2.
2. After Basso crack...Disco: Leipheimer will lead the TdF team...and that was planned with Basso also. Giro for Basso and TdF for Leipheimer (I am almost shure that Bruyneel hoped golden double for Basso (a la Panatni 1998)).
3. After TdF 10 days..when Bruyneel find out that Contador is stronger...he sayd: Yep fellows Contador was my planned "dark horse"...I got you all
4. After tour and fact that disco cant find new sponsor Bruyneel says: Jep I was planned resign anyway just needed to win the TdF one more time after Armstrong (point - he wont leave before that win comes..and oh. he got it...and oh. no team anymore.What a coincidence.
Bullshit..bullshit..

- After his participation in the Dutch criterium, Ronde van Pijnacker, Michael Rasmussen said that he expects to sign a contract with a team very soon, and that he also expects to participate in Giro di Lombardia.
- I think it has been mentioned before: CSC is interested in Laurens Ten Dam. Same goes for Quickstep and Lotto. |

Sergio Paulinho will probably continue his cycling career on a Portuguese team like Benfica or Liberty Seguros. |

This is pretty funny:
PHg wrote:
Liquigas have also expressed an interest in Possoni, and in Brajkovic (who also is being linked Astana, with Contador and Gusev).
gianni wrote:
Not true 
Why's this funny? Because forum member, gianni, is Janez Brajkovic  And it's also funny that he actually wrote a message on the forum. He has been pretty silent ever since he saw that people considered Discovery being a team of dopers.
It's good to know, though, that he doesn't want to go to Astana. And the fact that he doesn't deny going to Liquigas says a lot. |

Elijzen's case is different. he confirmed he has signed with Rabobank for the next two years. |

Matteo Carrara has signed with Quickstep.
On the same note, Lefevre complained that some team managers release false rumours in order to raise the price for a rider. "Ten Dam is going to Rabobank, not Quickstep, not CSC", he said. |

Van Petegem might end his career in October. He will probably decide during ENECO Tour.
Selle Italia has confirmed that they have signed with Simoni. They are also looking for riders to back him up during the Giro. They have also said that they're close at signing with a new big, probably Swedish, sponsor. |

Good for Selle...I would also buy Simoni..of corse he will retire soon but in the Giro he was such symphatic rider...and gonna give good example for Selle youngsters.
And cant wait to see how Ricco will crack has Saunier team leader in Giro.
