But still T-Doping was a good team. Mapie and the others was not clean. They won fair. Every one was using doping.
Yes, exept for a few of the french teams. It would be good if we could just accept that almost everyone was doped in that era, and just focus on the anti doping work and the races that goes on now.
Instead of always bringing up old cases. |

Random thought : with Astana's current situation, and the announce of new Armstrong's team, do you think AC will follow the american ?

I am fast to judge.
I heard today that everybody in the Astana Giro squad had the new jersey today, but not one. Wast that Andrey Zeits? If it was him he will probably not get a new contract when Lance rule the team. |

Why would Zeits get that anyway?
Lance and Bruyneel will probably build up a squad consisting of americans and spaniards |

Michael Creed, recently dismissed by Rock Racing, says the housing conditions set up by the team at the Joe Martin Stage Race were the following:
35 dollars a night motel, with 6 riders in the same room.
Plus, the taem hasn't paid the riders their 2008 bonuses (around 6-10 thousand dollars each)

I have a question, how, if Astana are going Bankrupt, can they afford to buy brand new shirts for everyone

No, Type 1, Creed wasn't with the team during Joe Martin.
At least I think, I assume he posted this because of the story about the Belgian guy and Team Type 1

Results on cyclingnews and the Joe Martin website list him as riding the race for Rock Racing. That would make up a 6 man team for Rock Racing, while Team Type 1 had 8 riders. |

It probably is a result of Creed's license saying he is a Rock Rider, or just a mistake by cyclingnews

Michael Creed is looking forward to a fresh start with new squad Team Type 1, after being unexpectedly let go from Rock Racing last month. The American is focused on enjoying his career as a professional cyclist and delivering successful performances to his new squad during the second half of the 2009 season.
Creed's negotiations with Team Type 1 began one week after he received a notice of termination from Rock Racing team owner Michael Ball last month. "I haven't enjoyed racing my bike for the past six months," Creed said. "It's time to again. In one week the deal was done and I have to thank Team Type 1. I'm excited to repay them for their faith in me."
Creed's letter of termination cited a lack of performance as the reason. After repeated attempts to contact the team, Creed received word that he could continue to compete under the Rock Racing banner but without pay and through finding his own way to the races. He said his final goodbyes to his former team-mates Chris Baldwin and Cesar Grajales at last weekend's Joe Martin Stage Race.
The key bit being that he raced under Rock Racing at Joe Martin Stage Race. Oh I love to prove American's wrong.

Okay, you proved us wrong, I'm sorry I didn't spend my time digging through cyclingnews just to be able to rub it in someone's face. |

Lance is somewhat irrelivant in the fact that he may get another TDF from Bruyneel but he is near or at the end of this 2nd career.
I don't think so. Caisse will need a new team leader soon |

Nah, Contador to Caisse, that's not what would happen imo.
